I ❤️ watches since I owned as a kid my first one, but lately it went totally crazy 🤯. Especially on the Swiss end of the market.
I bought in 1996 my first Swiss made watch a Rolex Pepsi GMT (16700). Because it was then most beautiful watch I every seen 😳.
But nowadays brand name, what you get and price is not in balance anymore. I understand luxury (I think) and know why a Swiss watch cost what is cost these days. But the balance is gone!
So therefor in 2022 I sold 📈all my watches (also for those crazy prices 🤭) and did start all over. Focusing on the form first not the fame and manly on my first love the 'diver watch". So now a collect Japanse (dive watches) by Seiko, Casio and Citizen and search for those Chinese 'gems' these day who are giving a lot of quality and joy for prices that are also out of balance but then because they ask to little by what the offer :-)
But because of this new perspective the joy in watches and watch collecting is back.
😂😂UPDATE … as much as I love my Japanese / Chinees collection, one Swiss brand caught my attention and I could not shake it off.
Tudor❗️
The more I looked in to this brand to more I saw that old balance between what you get 💯 and what you pay 💶. With Tudor this was still a little bit in balance and therefor the purchase of a Tudor BB Heritage Burgundy is my step back into Swiss made ☺️.
I'm afraid a few more TUDOR's will follow ... to be continued ...

Jep, hard to get new these day. Almost sold out. But found one online to a very attractive price point. This is the Spinnaker Hull California Chronograph SP-5092-11. First choice was de fumee blue dial but was not to be found.
A lot of stories about one DAil :-) Excuse my typoos :-). I’m from the Netherlands and writing in a foreign languages is always tricky. I do my best.
I also think that there are different stories about this Dail. But that somehow it was a showcase dail for what is possible to choose seems logic. Therefor I bought that story. The story about stabilizing the radiation seems more off …. But it is also a good story. So I go with this one as THE explanation for the dail name 😋
