$4000 plus tax and shipping is the lowest I have been offered. Some on ebay under $4000 for the light color dials.

Well as Rod Argent sang, "It's only money" :rolling_eyes: Not too mention "God gave rock-n-roll to you" as well:grin:

So I don't have a really big collection nor do I have any high dollar time pieces but I enjoy what I have. My best dress watch is probably my Le Locle :thinking:

Then my fave kick around is my quartz T.W. Steel VR46 Pilot:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

That's not that crazy for a Cartier, isn't it?


The thing is, I have other watches that are higher retail than the Cartier, yet sell lower preowned. I know retail price doesn't really mean everything, but its only worth what someone will pay. The model I am looking at isn't a huge hit for them. I don't need the watch, its just something I like buying after a nice win at the casino.

I love me a good Grand Seiko.

I spent countless hours studying them in Tokyo. There are many styles.........more than could be guessed..... offered as variations of models. Unfortunately my headphone budget has scooped up what could have been a watch spending account. But if I was going to go all out that’s the direction I’d go. Just happy with my mid-fi Seiko few! :)

Since we are here....thoughts on me getting myself a Hamilton Khaki as my first "decent" watch?

Looking to spend around $500 and it looks like the Khaki is one of the best recurring suspects out there.

Since starting to watch (sorry, bad choice of words I know) Pride and Pinion over lockdown, I've been more and more intrigued by watches.

I know, I really don't need another expensive hobby.

Highly recommend the Hamilton Khaki Autos. They are incredibly versatile!

They work so well with a variety of straps, a true strap monster. Here's three different straps, three different looks on my wrist.

Just received. Pictures do not do this blue justice.

That's awesome. Funnily enough, one of the exact ones on the top of my list.

Thinking about going that route and building up my strap collection to go with my fashion to get myself started.

Highly recommend it! You can get the watch of Jomashop or similar for around $450, and then load up on a bunch of totally-fine quality straps for $20-25 each, and you can literally feel like you're rocking a new watch every time you swap.

I have and had a bunch of other watches, including some vastly higher in price, but I keep going back to this Hammy Khaki Auto because it's so versatile.

You go with that watch-fi and let me know once you get yourself that Hamilton :)

Let's be honest, we both know that you'll get it :sunglasses:
