Really like this Sea Master Planet Ocean but its like 50% more than that silver/blue Carrera.
JomaShop has some pretty good deals on pre owned watches if you're ok with pre owned

Thank you random Bot for bumping this thread, the posts since, and the unveiling of the Rolex photo-trolling have been most excellent.
Right? Too funny.
Nice on the engine turned bezel, the wide set bars or more akin to a muted fluted design? Either way, very cool; as you know, not done anymore. My guess is Air King or Datejust.
If we can't appreciate the nice things in the middle of a global shitstorm when a trolling bot bumps them to the top only to unveil an epic flamboyant troll by the good people at Rolex, then when can we? Coco Chanel still got dressed up the day she died (probably).
Besides, take a stroll back through this thread and see how loaded it is with gems like this:

Is jomashop trustworthy? I've read some pretty scathing reviews.

There's an Omega store in the mall by my house.
What are you guys looking for? Does it need to be in the box?"timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

Yes, I have bought at least a dozen watches from them and never had an issue. Just don't wait for back ordered watches, they my never come, just order something else. Nothing comes with a factory warranty since they are not an authorized dealer, but they do their own warranty work. Never needed it.
I've never owned a Rolex, too expensive and just paying for the name. Currently I have two Omegas, sea master and Constellation, post fire. My only watch that survived the fire was my custom engarved TAG Links. Lost a few nice watches in the fire.
...and yes, real men still wear watches.

I'm not a huge fan of Exlax watches but some models are the shit. Too many people I know have them and I wonder how many are Russian made (Imma-Knockoff)
I have few fancy-schmancy ones but I mostly wear a cheap invictus watch because I abuse them. Not verbally just physically.
Just can't justify the price of wearing something on my wrist that is worth the price of a car. I'd rather get the car but everyone has their type of toy or pleasure position so if it makes you happy do it.
Ok that's all I got.

I own 4 watches (three nice waterproof, one iWatch). Other than when hiking, fishing, working out or riding my bike, I never put one on. However, I can't get myself to sell them. One day, that will be my son's problem.
My chronographs are wound down (not working) all the time. Overtime, I wind it and put it on, which can be one week a year, it works fine. I bought a submariner in the '80s, and it is still good to go.
If you are thinking of Rolex, be aware that every year or two, it will cost you ~$600 to service (tune). The Seamaster is a bit cheaper to service, but requires maintenanceLast edited by schindlerpiste; 06-03-2020 at 10:00 AM.

Hey DJ you might like the Tag Aquaracer. Looks good and is a great travel watch. If scoping out pre owned then look for the engraved divers helmet. The newer ones don't have it mind you those Carrera are sweet.
My 3 travel watches. The Heineken one for any emergency trade but yet no need to part with it.
