Let's talk about Rolex (again)

It's not a hate post. I'm just intrigue at how things are run behind the crown. Just had a quick read on how the Hans Wildorf foundation is so into ph...

Would you sell your Tudor Black Bay 58 for a Black Bay 54

Ever since the announcement in W&W 2023 of the Black Bay 54, I've been thinking quite a lot about it. The fact was that they didn't make the perfe...

How often do you change your watch straps?

So here I am in front of my desk, with a plan to swap the crocodile strap on my Grand Seiko 283 Kishun to something I just got. But before doing so, I...

This is a nice watch. To me Omega watches of the 90s and early 20s were some of their most recognizable watches. I don't mind adding this quartz model in my collection. Did you send it for servicing prior to buying it? Wear it proudly!

commented on State of the market ·

Pre-covid it all seemed fine. Then came that thought that if people didn't buy watches during covid, the prices would go down. That wasn't the case. Somehow they managed to either stabilize the price or increase it further due to lesser buying channels. The fact that they will always come up with a reason why you always end up paying at a high price.

Zenith A386 Chronomaster Original! I love this watch.

If you have $4,000 to buy a Pelagos, you are not poor....

That Omega Speedmaster comment 😂

Omega tried to gain fans by making a smaller version called the Speedmaster Reduced, only to be bashed by loyalist that its a wannabe moonwatch and makes people think twice buying it.

commented on Tudor BB58 Question ·

I kind of agree with the bracelet. It was only when I moved to leather where it felt most comfortable. I spent a lot even buying Uncle Seiko half links. It all felt good until I started wearing my datejust more and just felt the BB58 felt a tad to big (at least on my perception).

Having said that it really depends on your wrist. People with bigger wrist will be able to wear it easier I guess.

Also knowing Tudor they may simply sell a full bracelet with the Tfit clasp rather than just the clasp itself.

commented on A watch that you should not miss ·

Dear OP. Having read your comment is refreshing knowing there was a real guy with real emotions behind it. This whole week I've been receiving emails with plenty of AI rant (no doubt employees trying to make themselves sound professional to the point that 80% of their email was almost ROBOTIC).

The BB54 is on my wishlist too along with a Carl F Bucherer Manero Autodate 38mm. I've recently sold off my BB58 in December but felt it was too soon to get it replaced. I have to admit when it came out I obsessed over it but couldn't buy it because I had the BB58. Now that I have sold it, I'm pretty much more calm knowing nothing is in the way of me buying it, except maybe the cash 😉
