That‘s a ridiculous demand for most brands. Very often, even when you are the first customer on whatever “list” they may have, your watch will be tried on by other customers. When it’s a very popular brand / rare model, it may even go to the window despite it being already sold.

I love my vintage JLC Atmos clock. It still keeps great time despite being 40-50 years old (couple of seconds per day and I’m sure some adjustment would get it even more accurate). Prices vary depending on rarity and condition, but it’s possible to find relatively affordable ones.

Awesome combination! I have exactly the same nato strap and I love it.

What an awesome collection! Two of my favorite Grand Seikos, absolutely classic Rolex and a super versatile Seamaster too. However, the absolute highlight for me is the Nomos Tangente Toki. What a rare and uniquely designed piece!

If you ever think about selling it, I‘ll pay (almost) any price 😂 - totally not kidding about that.

Awesome, the white dial looks great (and with Rolex’ refusal to match the date colour may be the smarter choice…)!

I wear mine 2-3 days a week, rotating it with my Nomos. Still loving every second. So far, I only have minor scratches on the Oysterclasp. The watch itself basically looks like new.

Just mention black tie watches to rub in that I’m not getting a honey gold A. Lange 1815 in the next couple of decades 😂
