off course
I'm watch shopping and could use some suggestions.
I don't think rolex is all that interesting and i don't pine for what i can't afford. You guys are lucky you buy so many rolex. girls think sexy.

Do I get it? I've regretted not getting the limited edition Iris, now it's available in a boring monochrome version which I'm not sure yet how I feel about.

I like Ming, how they start from scratch and not just copy the same old design elements from other brands.
The bracelet on this one is what really steals the show; but not a fan of the curved lugs (art deco vibes)
Also, people say it's overpriced for a 3D printed watch.

Only the bracelet is 3D printed, no?
Anyway the bracelet is damn cool but I'm not convinced what's essentially an overengineered milanese band works that well on such a chonky watch. I liked the look of the Iris on padded leather more.
Looking at it again I think I just wanted the Iris.

That's a good thing.
But it's bullshit when they make "limited edition" stuff and charge a lot for it. What if I wanted one and I don't want to pay over $500? Make more. Make one for me.
But put the crown on the correct size for mine, thanks.

I have multiple luxury watches including a rolex and I've been unironically thinking about a watch with all or mostly brushed finishes as a work watch. If this is a wearable size with a good bracelet, maybe even the current explorer bracelet, it's in the running. The only strike is it doesn't have a date, but a lot of smaller field type watches don't have day or date anymore.

Which GMT specifically? If you want a batman or bruce wayne your chances are probably pretty good. If you want a pepsi and have no intention of getting any other rolex you're probably just fucked, either the ADs will laugh at you behind your back and give you nothing or the grey dealers will fuck you with no lube.

You are such a colossal fucking faggot, dude. Every single day with the >I MISS THESE GONECELS SO MUCH!! WAAAAHHH!!
Get it together. There's no fucking way anyone ever posted regularly here and was respected and not fucked with. I'm sure he left because he was harassed by cunts.

Actually he was mostly pretty respected outside of one generational autist, and it was because he did everything the right way and behaved the exact opposite way of the modern avatarfags - He had a wide collection of a lot of different watches but he was humble about it and didn't constantly post them as a signature or for attention and didn't spam posts of multiple paragraphs every day trying to convince everyone his watches were the best thing ever. As far as I know he never took a wristshot at dinner and blogged about how his day was going, or made a paid whore stack his watches on her body for a picture.

>didn't constantly post them as a signature
You’re right about everything but this. He definitely used his limited set of pics as signatures. He never updated them either.
>take some better pics of your watches please.
>No, it’s the same watch, so I’ll just use the same pic.

>>18665086
They're not "worthless," It's just not a pile of hype pieces. It's a genuine collection of a lot of different stuff that he likes - have you seen so many bullhead chronographs in one collection before? A lot of men with his money and ability build a collection as if they saw a magazine article about the top 10 hypest watches and just went down the list buying them all, and they end up with a collection that's like 7 rolexes and 3 pateks and a speedmaster. He has a lot of stuff at every price level and his passion even goes into pocket watches and desk clocks. He's the kind of guy that genuinely likes watches, buys watches because he likes them, and doesn't care what you think about them.

Ok, not “worthless”. Poor choice of wording. They do not have very much resale value, less than a few hundred dollars. I was responding to anon who was asking about the value of the collection. The overall collection is worth quite a bit, but the majority of the value is limited to a few pieces in the front row.

Was it because someone was asking for his opinion or something? Sometimes posters would directly address him about something, lending credence to the idea that he was respected and some people cared what he thought about stuff.

Unfortunately I want the Pepsi. Anywhere from 50-100% above retail. I can wait though I’m sure it’ll go down eventually. Who knows maybe they’ll release better shades of blue for the bezel later on and get rid of the polished center links.

Fuck off. There's no evidence any of these "people" ever existed. You're just making it up. There's no history here.

There are people here doing that. But it doesn't count if 80% are from China apparently.
Fucking hypocritical faggots.

So you only own Swiss and German watches then? You must. Because Japan sucks and anything made in America sucks. China obviously. Even their parts are shit, so that disqualifies a whole lot of international watchmakers right there.
Just Germany and Switzerland make good watches. That's a good rule to go by. Thanks for establishing that. I'm sure we'll have a lot less traffic now, but it's quality we're going for, not quantity.
