My apologies for once again interjecting with non-high-end content, but I love this new Tissot PRX (quartz) with the brushed mint green dial…

The timepiece that has been eluding Farmer for quite some time now.

Nice watch.

that face is rad. I've liked that tissot for a while, but I'm just not a fan of the bracelet. Looks too futuristic or something

The bracelet looks like the stretchy metal bracelet my dad has been wesring on his Casio for the last 50 years.

Not to pile on, but I talked myself out of that Tissot purely based on the bracelet. Still love the PRX faces.

That looks great! I've talked myself out of watches with that bracelet before, but usually because I think I'll want to put my watches on a strap later on. Then I never do.

Gotta get this thread awakened. I need some watch postings to get football outta my head.

Does anyone own a Baltic?

If we woulda lost THAT game, I shudder to think what you would have had to do to that watch.

Pure curiosity, but what makes this a $35K Submariner vs some of the previous postings which were in the teens? I thought the secondary Rolex market has softened enough that these prices weren't realistic right now.

Or am i answering my own question because it is white gold?

Solid white gold

I think each link is 500-700 depending on where you're getting it. Not sure if Rolex AD will even sell you one

I got excited when I had an email from anOrdain in my inbox this morning. It said invitation to reserve your build slot.
I put myself on the wait list a while back and thought Christmas had come early for me. Finally my turn to to order is here.

I was actually an email inviting me to reserve my slot, but first available build slot is Oct-Dec 2025.
The reservation fee was due in GBP, so at least I got the current exchange rate working for me.
I am in the summer 2025 slot. Hope I'm still into watches at that point!


Just got my email, April -June 2026. Probably would have passed if it was like 18 months but that far out why the hell not? Might even get to see what the model 3 looks like before I'd have to choose.

The wife's family lives in the Black Forest region of Germany, so while vacationing there, picked this up. Factory is 25 miles from their home. Number 147 of 160 of these made to celebrate the 160 anniversary of the company.

This is beautiful aside from the massive blemish in upper right. What is that? Am I seeing glare from pic?

Just glare from a light. The crystal is very dome shaped

Junghans makes some beautiful dress watches. Large dials with minimal cases. Highly domed crystals. Beautiful colors. In person this one seems on the purple end of the blue spectrum. The green Chronoscope is also gorgeous in person.

I really like it...massive blemishes and all.

It's interesting I'm really digging German watches more than others on average.
