New guy who finally bought a grail watch

hello everyone,

I heard about this forum from watching Max’s YouTube videos. I’m active on a few other forums but getting sick of the elitism and negativity. I’ve been buying and selling watches for about 5 years now trying to fill the void of a grail watch. I finally bought my grail watch a few months ago and wish I had just bought it in the first place!

Brilliant watch mate! Nice to know that they still use it on the space station when outside! The x-33 for indoors work !

Looks gorgeous on that nato strap! Welcome!

Very nice.

Welcome, that strap really looks good on that speedy

·

Killer pairing of that MN with the speedy.  High five.

Welcome aboard!

That’s a fine looking strap but is that an MN or a NATO?  It looks like a hybrid of both to my eyes.

Nice! So I was kind of right. :)

Very nice! What do you of the Omega X Seat h MoonSWatch?

·

TOTALLY agree with each point you made. Well done, and I understand the grail part. Once the void is filled, nothing less than that sort of quality can fill it again.

I haven’t seen one I’m person obviously but I don’t think it’s for me.

Welcome to the group! Congratulations on the Speedy.

Grail watches are: Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, and Audemars Piguet. May be Rolex but not in may book. Did you mean to say "exit watch" ? ie the watch that you would never intend to sell ? But exit watches are rare watches that you won't be able to replace.

Amen and congrats!

"Grail" is a very derivative term, which means different things to different people. At the end of the day, a grail is just a watch someone really wants. OP got the watch they wanted, so let's send a solid congratulations!

Never heard of exit watch, but interesting concept. For me it’s a grail watch because it was the one I always wanted And never thought to actually buy myself. Funny that you mentioned the brands above. I was at a wedding tonight and noticed that the grooms brother was wearing a Nautilis. I asked him about it and he had no idea what it was, he said it was a gift. He was also wearing it backwards by the way. I guess one man’s grail can be another man’s backwards watch sometimes. 

I guess the term exit watch could possibly mean the watch is not easily replaced because of the memories?

They sent me a 22mm one by accident that I still have, let me know if it would fit any of your watches and I’ll send it your way.

Haha.  I’m good, but thanks.  I have a couple of BluShark NATOs myself.  They‘re quality.
