Omega 1171 Bracelet value!

When did the Omega 1171 bracelet skyrocket in value? I bought one new in 2006 for $80!

Not tacky at all! Love them. Makes me think of Jaws for some reason.

Steeldives are a great value. Seiko movements, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel inserts, etc. Timex has some great vintage looking stuff as well.

Correction: You did the RIGHT thing.

You can’t go wrong with Laco or Stowa (huge fan). IWC are beautiful watches as well but (in my opinion) you may want to put 7K into something with more impact. Fliegers tend to look almost identical from a distance which would make me lean Stowa.

commented on HELP: How would you value this watch for resale? ·

This is the way.

commented on Why do you love Brand X and not Brand Y? ·

I started my collection almost 20 years ago with a lot of vintage Omegas. Some not working. At the time they were very reasonable compared to Rolex. I purchased a busted-up, non-working Speedmasrer Pro and sent it to Omega for a complete overhaul. It came back looking brand new. Repair cost was $400. Now I’ve gravitated to Seiko divers. Vintage and new. Just love them.

commented on Time Graphs, is it worth purchasing one? ·

This will sound nuts but I purchased a time grapher app for the iphone app that uses an external (wired) microphone. It works really well for a hobbyist and so far has been pretty accurate. It’s called Timegrapher X. Costs about $25.
