AussieWatchGuy commented on First time using Chrono24 ·

That’s unusual. I’ve bought from Chrono24 many times and the funds always go into escrow and are not released until the buyer confirms receipt of the watch. I wouldn’t be buying it without that. Especially knowing how many Panerai fakes are out there.

AussieWatchGuy commented on Why don't we talk more about ...... Revue Thommen? ·

You’re most welcome mate. That’s why we have this great little community so we can all chip in where we can 👍

AussieWatchGuy commented on Flieger ·

Awesome watch mate. I’m a massive fan of Laco and this one’s very cool. I’ll probably end up buying the Schwarz version myself down the track but your white dial looks very nice. Enjoy!

AussieWatchGuy commented on Why don't we talk more about ...... Revue Thommen? ·

I posted this a little while back, but RT is now back in family hands and being run by Andreas Thommen.

Another little tidbit is that

https://revuethommenusa.com is not actually affiliated with RT and their official site is in fact http://thommenwatches.com/ as there’s no official licensee in the USA at the moment.

When I was last in touch with Andreas he mentioned there would be some new models in the pipeline so I’m very much looking forward to that.

Anyway here’s my RT which was produced while Grovana was the licensee.

AussieWatchGuy commented on Bang for buck Swiss watches ·

If you’re looking for a really good bang for buck I can highly recommend Atlantic Watches. Good quality that won’t break the bank.

Some others worth a look are:

Alpina, Atlantic, Bomberg, Certina, Hamilton, Mido, Mathey-Tissot, Revue Thommen, Squale, Tissot, Zeno-Watch Basel and Zodiac.

AussieWatchGuy commented on Mido Ocean star Tribute. First grail watch. ·

The Ocean Star is a very nice watch and it looks great on bracelet or silicon strap so you can’t go wrong. I’ve been very impressed with my Mido. Good luck with the hunt, hope you get it soon!
