Wow, that is some movie heist madness. A lady got shot at Il Pastaio on Canon last week. WTF is up with Beverly Hills right now?

Edit: I see the watch was part of the same incident as the shooting, so that is sort of less crazy. Sort of.

Yep, some Chinese water-proof smart watch for $30. It shows the Internet-synchronized time, weather in the city, my pulse, blood pressure, a % of oxygen in the blood, SMS and various instant messages, steps made and a walked distance. It logs and analyzes my sleep quality, controls media player and camera on my phone etc...

As about jewelry and shiny glasses, I leave that for girls. I'm a straight man, so that's not a my piece of cake.

You know what’s more gay than jewelry? Being so insecure about your own sexuality that you’re scared to wear a nice watch or a chain... or literally anything someone likes and wants to wear.

Okay, so at least I am not the only one.

I do like the Omega Seasmaster watches.

Every gay or metro-sexual wants to wear, not a man.

I enjoy CyberSEO posts about men, women, and lifestyle, after all these years :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Russia must be a hell of a place to grow up.

For you? A real hell for sure. You should live here:

Do you like poo?

I become 1% more manly every time I read one of his posts... right now I am slowly approaching 100%, but will never reach his level

50 million watch :)

Not mine... just to be clear. I would never spend that kind of money on anything

Just to also be clear, i don't have a Rolex :1orglaugh





Maybe one day...

Which watches actually appreciate in value? Those would be the only ones I would collect.

But it seems that "watch guys" will often buy & sell their own watches to each other privately. So I would think it's hard to properly value what a watch is "worth" if you try to resell it yes? Does it just come down to however much a watch guy will pay for a secondhand Brightling, Rolex or Patek Phillipe?

Certain Rolexes (daytonas and subs) retain/appreciate. Pateks appreciate. Everything else depreciates (but can be great deals on the secondary market).

Breitlings aren't good.

I don't agree on that last sentence, I love my 806 re-edition :disgust :winkwink: Also there are certainly some good breitlings, just skip the overly flashy shiny car sales man ones. They had a ton of terrible designs yes :1orglaugh

It's not hard to value a piece. There are tons of forums, sites and marketplaces to use as references.

Personally I hate losing money on a watch, so I either buy pre-owned or new if it's Rolex. Try to buy a new Daytona at the Rolex dealer for list though ;)

Breitlings do not hold value..

Rolex hold/appreciate
AP have appreciated like crazy recently but I feel like they will drop in price when the market comes back to reality.. while Rolex won’t be as affected

Personal opinion of course

omega watches keep their value, if you buy the speedmaster or seamaster range, others, lower priced can depreciate. Also, some of these are quartz, not mechanical, so unlike rolex, hold the time better :2 cents:

I made a small fortune out of Claude Valentini and Oskar Emil watches back in the late 90s... Before people worked it out... :pimp

Most watches don't hold value like Fuze mentioned already. Hence the reason I buy mostly pre-owned.

Personally I don't like to see a watch depreciate however I am a watch nut. If I really like something, like the 806, I just buy it and enjoy it. I don't buy watches with the idea of selling them.

I also think Rolex will always be a fairly safe bet.

Btw did you see the course of the 5711 after they announced to stop producing it? Lmao, crayness. That's what it is :1orglaugh

I like the 806 reissue! I loved and miss my navitimer world which I sold for 80% less than I paid for it :( Was just trying to point out they are not in the same league as higher end brands, even if their marketing department tries to position them as such.

Used seamasters trade for 50% off retail, all day long.

Would have loved it if my old planet ocean kept it's value!

I wear the same Breitling for approx 25 years now, earned it as incentive for selling dental equipment

nothing else needed, also no collector

I have a kermit, a coke, and a rose gold two tone yacht master. I think the kermit has almost tripled in price since I bought it.

Is that the chocolate dial YM? Or the tacky YM II? :helpme

I wore one of these in the nineties :1orglaugh

Also known as "pussy magnet" :winkwink:

Can't say about 90s, but these (Montana and Casio) were popular in the USSR mid 80s. A true legend :)

Yep, pussy magnets were cheaper at that time)

Yeah, there were also Montana models with a calculator)

https://i.imgur.com/ExPx14H.png

Damn... that’s a pretty ugly collection

Two tone YMII is my next purchase :helpme

I had those when I was a boy. A nail-operating calculator, an alarm clock and more than 10 squeaky melodies, AFAIR :)

Kinda lucky! :thumbsup

The Daytona was just as an example. Trust me I know. I want that new Cermit :helpme

That YM II is just too much over the top flashy imho :2 cents: But that's the good thing about this, as long as you like it more power to you :winkwink:

I mean it's jewelery :)

Two of my last watches were an AP Millenary 4101 and a Franck Muller Crazy Hours.

My new deepsea is the most boring thing I own, but hey, it retains value :1orglaugh

Too each his own :winkwink:

That crazy hours is a fun one though :pimp

I'm more a classic watch guy, GMT, SeaDweller, DJ, ExplorerI / II. 5 digits for the win!

Cant even get on the waiting list anymore...

I love the new Chronomaster sport but I have the regular El Primero (38mm) already and this one is too close being a white dial as well. I am eyeballing the black one though. Give it half a year for the hype to go down and I think you'll be able to get one with a nice discount at the AD or on the grey market.

used speedmasters have been known to increase in price by several 100% and depending on what omega watches, they can be a great investment!

I would check your watch again, you may find you´ve got 10 grand in the bank :thumbsup

and just to be clear, I understand Rolex or Patek pretty much has the watch industry in the bag. I´m just saying, some speedmasters and especially the old original seamasters from Omega can see huge profits too :2 cents:

Yeah no.

https://www.crownandcaliber.com/coll.../omega-watches

The only pieces listed over retail is the limited Apollo anniversary watch, and a physical watch worn by Daniel Craig in a movie.

I want some of what you're smoking :pimp

I'm love watches.

Here is mine (at the moment)

the next one will be the moonwatch frorm Omega.
