Any watch lovers here????

Which Daytona? They are hard to get but not worth paying a premium.

Then again, The "list" is bullchit but people think it's real so. . .

 

The ceramic, white dial. We'll see. Even if I had the money, I wouldn't pay over msrp. It's insane at the moment.

Next weekend!!

 

Agreed!!! Which is why I'm not a fan of Rolex. They can take their "list" and, well, you get the picture.

 

Give me the go ahead and I'll get you a watch/ timing sponsor.

 

We'll speak later this week.

 

Official WERA Hamilton Watch has a nice ring.

Just sayin'

 

Hahahahahaha! Awesome!

Bring back the Pacer for a WERA! It'll make Chaotic cringe.

 

Interesting topic. I had a Rolex Thunderbird years ago, wife bought it as a wedding present for me. Liked the look, but would stop if I didn't wear it for more than 2 days. Was stolen out of a gym locker about 7 years later. Wife was smart enough to insure it, and we actually MADE about $4k on it. . . .

Now I'm getting an itch for something like this:

But am thinking I might find something much cheaper in a Seiko version, or other reliable Japanese watch. I like the black/gold/stainless look, with bigger bezel, also the day/date option, but in past watches I've had issues with keeping that in synch.

This is nice too, and waay cheaper:

Any suggestions?

 

Newer Ceramic GMT in Gold/Stainless is the sh*t. Looks a lot better IMO than the older two tone watches, the bezel just matches up way better with the colors.

Most will stop within a few days of not wearing them though being automatic A nice watch winder will cure that however for about a hundred bucks.

 

I love the GMT. I wouldn't be too interested in that used one since it doesn't have the box or paperwork or any recent service. The bracelet also looks a little loose.

Have you considered the Tudor Black Bay? It is made by Rolex, costs less and you can usually get your hands on a new one without the wait for a Rolex. There are a few different styles. I have both the Rolex GMT and the new Tudor Pepsi and I have been wearing the Tudor more.

 

I really love that Seiko.

 

This:

But almost as expensive as a used Rolie GMT II. The snob in me says go full-boat at that pricepoint, or be smart and go Seiko or something under $1g unless its a used Omega, Tag or Rolie. Can't see spending over $4k unless its a legit Rolex. . .

 

Agreed. At that price point you can get one with box and papers with hopefully less bracelet stretch.
As TT are not the most sought after, you could probably negotiate a discount on a brand new one.
Tudor rocks btw!
