Lots of hate on AP in here. I’ve loved every Code 11.59 I’ve seen. Both the lacquered enamel dials and the new dials on the steel models. I actually think the 11.59 is a better proof point for why AP belongs on the holy trinity list.

True Apple offers a great service with AppleCare+, but that isn't complimentary.

commented on What watch does your significant other wear? ·

My wife and I both got into watches at the same time. When I got my Tudor Ceramic, she got a Tudor 58 925. When I got a Tudor Black Bay Pro, she got a Tudor Pelagos LHD. She also wears a Seiko Presage I gifted her. And for Christmas she got a Cartier Santos. It's been fun getting nerdy in this hobby with her!

If money was no object, she'd be rocking an Omega Ploprof.

Picked up a Presage for an incredible price. Took about a week to ship and then a few days to arrive. Would definitely buy from them again.

There are plenty of "unobtainable" watches. Watches that we've been told are impossible to get. But are they? Whether you're after a Moon Swatch, a Daytona or a Nautilus - what has your experience bee...

In praise of Sarah Miller (at Hodinkee)

Getting into this hobby, probably the most influential writer (to me) has been Sarah Miller. Her "newbie" series on Hodinkee, reading about her journe...
