With inflation that actually means you are getting a significant discount...

I posted this a couple pages back and actually like it on the black leather strap more. Might eye it for Xmas/birthday.

Guess I was raised to not be a jerk to random people. Several said it's not their cup of tea and there's nothing wrong with that. Didn't think everyone would love it, but wanted to share. Just don't get the need to be rude to people, but you do you.

Dude, settle down. You posted a picture on a thread with lots of watch enthusiasts of your friend's Rolex that had been after-marketed murdered out. Not sure what you expected, but the response is 100% what I expected. Your friend obviously has the right to take an awesome watch and make it ******y, but neither he nor you should be surprised when he gets called a ****** for doing so.

I mean let's toss the pic of the Rolex made to look like a Fossil watch aside, but someone posting a pic of their friend wearing a ring on their middle finger calling other people "tools"...really?

I thought that part was a joke. You think he was serious about that?

Tangent, when was last time you heard "twaat" used in a sentence? Just curious

Just came across this one. I like the looks of it even though I'm not usually a fan of a cushion case. I like that it's also a hi-beat movement; 10 beats/second.

$3700

If he wasn't, then props on him for quite the troll job. How defensive he's getting makes me think he wasn't trolling.

Is "cushion case" what they call that? Where the lugs essentially wrap all the way around, wider than the bezel? Like many Seikos?



Glad to know the term because I have always hated that look and never understood how some of those Seiko divers with it were so popular.

No.

What is a Cushion Case Watch? Emanating with masculine appeal, cushion case watches include a square-shaped case with softly rounded corners (sometimes described as a "squircle").

Yep. I don't care for them either.

I mean, that's exactly what he described, just not in those terms.

That crown being almost completely unscrewed is about to make my brain explode.

I'm not going to read back too far, I spent a while back over several days reading through this entire thread. I'm not a watch snob or expert by an stretch, but I like a quality watch. I've had nice watches, but was recently looking for something more universal. I'd never heard of it before this thread, but I loved the classic look of the Seiko SKX's. Several months back I ended up getting myself the 009, with the Pepsi bezel, and put it on a black and gray nato strap. Love the look, and gotta say, I get more complements on this watch than any other I've ever had. Solid rec on the watch from this thread.

I own the blue and green seiko "ice diver" you won't find a better watch for the price

007 was my first automatic watch and will always hold a special place in my heart. I've beat that thing to a pulp and love it. I particularly love swapping out nato straps on it.

Agreed. My 007 got me into this, and now it has become an expensive hobby that I love.

I like how the same picture of the watch in blue got flagged, but not the watch in green. Texags hates blue

Came across this Omega Speedmaster Day-Date Rose Gold reading an article on Hodinkee this weekend and thought it was pretty cool. I'm not a big gold guy, definitely not a rose gold guy, and don't usually love white faces...but this caught my attention.

Anyone seen one of these in real life?
