These are Magic Bands for Disney World. The unlock the kingdom for four days.....

Believe it or not, these are the Tudor versions. The Rolex Magic Bands vibrate, light up and you have to charge them every night.
Sounds like what my ex replaced me with...

30 best mechanical watches under $500

https://teddybaldassarre.com/blogs/watches/best-mechanical-watches
I was not in the market for a watch at all, especially after dropping some decent cash to get my early 80's Rolex Date repaired and in good working order. But after looking at that link I decided I needed a game day watch. The Orient Kanno in red (it's more maroon in real life) was too tempting. $200bucks later I have one. Nice watch for the money - actually much nicer than I expected

from linked article





Put it on before taking off the safety film!

Awesome! I love helping others spend their money (and get a good product as well).

H Moser & Cie has my all time favorite game day watch, but I've been too scared to pull the trigger. It's quite a hefty price.



I also like this one from Parmigiani, I really like Parmigiani but their pricing is ridiculous. They're asking to be treated like one of the "Holy Trinity" and they have nowhere near the chops to command that price point yet.



Watch is beautiful, but not for $47,000. That's $10K more than a solid goal Presidential day date.

And then you'd really be repping game day since you'd match Jimbo.

I think we might actually have the same day-date, he has the 40mm white faced one, no?

Yeah I believe so...

I think that might be a 36mm unless he has gigantic wrists.

For those who haven't seen it and are even mildly interested in hunting, do yourself a favor and read through that thread. Unbelievable trip.

Nice find.

So I'm not the only person who zooms into every picture of someone wearing a watch for the odd chance to discover a gem…

Thought I would post a pic of my wife's Rolex. It's a ~1984 Rolex so it's a little beat up being 40 years old. It was her mom's who passed away about 8 years ago. I need to take it in an get it polished up.

Snuck this pic because she would be weirded out I was posting this on a message board. Lol.

Which one is this again? I never pulled the trigger on the Ebay guy you sent me. He went radio silent on me.

Everyone loves a good watch review right? Just received in my Wesson watch and am very pleased with it. I do not buy a ton of watches in this price point, namely only two Seikos but I was impressed with the quality of the leather embossed box the watch came in and with the branded leather watch took pouch.

The watch also looks a lot better than in the photos, I think the photos of the watch on the website might need to be touched up as it looks a lot better in person.

The bracelet feels solid and the clasp engraving looks nice but I think the watch looks boring on the SS bracelet. I probably would have rather had two NATO's than the one NATO and the SS bracelet but I might be alone in that. The dial seems very crisp and the numbers and hashes are well aligned. The exhibition caseback is a nice touch and shows the movement well. The movement while not overtly decorated is still tasteful and I'm sure every bit as nice as most $900-1200 watches have.

All in all very impressed. Congratulations to Wesson Watch company and hope they sell a bunch of watches. I also appreciated the cause that they donated to, which on my watch was for a Filipino child named Marko who had been abused, hard not to feel proud to help him out.

As a Catholic, any time you have prayers in Latin on the thank you card I will give you a 10/10 , especially as I have AMDG on all of my office buildings.
