I finally got my grail, then I found a new grail 3 weeks later

My dream watch has always been the Tudor BB58, and I did it; I bought one. I couldn't be happier. I wear it every day, all day, and I enjoy it very much. I thought to myself, 'It's over. This is the last watch I'm going to buy.' THEN I saw the C1 moonphase from Christopher Ward. Well, I'm saving up again. It's never really over, isnt it?

Maybe, just maybe, a "grail" is a myth.

Congratulations 🥳

·

The BB58 is definitely my grail as well. We’ll see what 2024 brings. That CW is very nice lookin.

·

You are one of us.

·

Wow, that Tudor is nice! Not a dive watch person, but if I had the money, would not mind getting one of those.

Maybe, just maybe, “grail”is the wrong word “expensive watch”

·

Nope it's never over! Congratulations on the new Tudor!

·

Great watch, hope you enjoy. And, no it is never over for the next watch.

·

In another post someone described watch collecting not as a straight line but as branches of a tree. I think you just started a new branch 😉

·

This is why grails don’t exist. There’s always one after it.

·

Congrats. Those are both solid watches.

·

I always think grail is the next pricier purchase, one you save longer for, but it just makes the road we all seem to be on be a bit more interesting.

·

The grail is a lie.

·

Yeah grails is our lie we tell ourselves to buy a watch. But I think your bb58 is a much more versatile. Good buy!

·

I own the same blue bay 58 and I miss it so much since it’s in service because the crystal cracked. And the worst thing is I won’t get it till end of December so I won’t be able to wear it on my birthday which I wanted to make a tradition 😓

Welcome to watch collecting🤣

Juar kidding. The grail is just the watch you REALLY REALLY REALLY want right now. I'm personally fine to call it that and then move onto another "grail". I use it as shorthand because I don't want to say, the watch that I really really really want right now all the time.

YUP !! So Sorry 😜! (Not Sorry) lol 😆

·

The hook just got set deeper. Enjoy the ride.

A grail is not a myth if it is indeed your very last watch and it really is 'all that' after you obtain it.

Oh, now I see what you mean.

True story the title of this post 😂

You absolutely correct on that note it’s a superb look time piece for a dress watch I’m a bit of a stickler when it comes to having the correct accuracy but that’s not what this watch is about is a looker ahh and what a looker it is…!!!🤩⏱️💯
