Casio.

My late father was wearing them when I was a kid, found them to be incredible and cool at the time.

Since than I branched out to most brands, my favorites being Casio (still), Orient, Seiko, Bulova etc

Hello Rich,

How is Pagani Design?... from what I can tell they just do "homage" watches.

I have gotten a few recommendations for them thou.

Thank You, it looks very good.

It gives me this "winter" vibe.

what's the reference number on that?

commented on Thoughts on your collection and quality over quantity ·

I find myself constantly buying and selling in the cheap/affordable 500 -1000 range. Right now I'm sitting on 8 watches.

commented on Celebrating 15 years of marriage ·

Congrats! Me and the wife are soon coming up on 20 years and I wish I could get us a pair of matching watches but she cares not about them, like 0%.

commented on Well, that's a Rolex off my list... ·

Damn, that just sucks 😕

I'm sorry for the small business owners, but this is nothing personal, it's business.

What Rolex is asking is to change the name which should not shut the business down. In such cases, the company making the claim (Rolex in our case) can allow the accused to finish selling their current stock before rebranding. This should result in a minimal impact on the business. No idea if Rolex was so gracious however.
This seems to be a bit blown out of proportion IMO.

And to answer the question “Is it fair for Rolex to stop us from using the word Oyster?”

Yes, 100%.

I'm not trying to "put the little guy down" but fair is fair and according to Trademark Law Rolex is well within their rights and should enforce the trademark. 

I'm honestly surprised of the online reaction and that the petition got so many signatures.

Whether or not Rolex is worth the asking price or should you buy one is another topic entirely and given the nature of the product more of a question for the individual not the group.
