I got one of my grails!

Not what most people would consider a grail, but I've been searching for one of these silver dialed, all steel, 2nd generation Manhattan, automatic, O...

Did anyone else get an SNXS79

Just curious if anyone else here got an SNXS79 after watching Watchfinder's review of it.  When I saw the macro shots of the watch I thought that it w...

I'm concerned that it will be too thick. At 14mm it's a lot thicker than the original ETA version.

I thought the same thing when I saw it.  Normally that color difference would bother me, but not here.

I'm enjoying my watch.  It has its flaws, but I'm really happy I got it.  If you can't looks past the flaws, then you may not enjoy it, but if you can appreciate it for what it is, I think you might like it.  I also don't have other sunburst dials, so this does bring a great dial to my collection.

Cash is king...  I've never sold any watch that expensive before, but I've sold cars.  Ive always done it in person and at a bank.  Cash or cashier's check would probably be best.   Crypto currency could also work fine, if you use it.

I love my BCPD!  It's my most worn watch and is easily dressed up or down.  I love that it is so versatile.

I didn't realize that what cost so much.  I think it looks nice, but I thought the price was in like with the other Aquis limited editions.  Not at that price

I love the Fears Brunswick Blue.  Absolutely beautiful.  I discovered Fears about a year and a half ago.  At first I played those mind games you're playing.  "I could buy an Omega for that price, etc, etc."  However, I never been able to get that watch out of my head.  At this point, I no longer have those qualms with purchasing the watch.  I've grown used to the idea, and it will probably be the next watch I purchase.  Although you can find similar looking watches, there is just a depth and amazing design quality to them.  It actually have begun to think that maybe the watch is actually great value at that price.  Either way I'm just going to go for it when I have the money.
