Is it me, am I imagining ghis or someone else noticed that the bracelet on Bulgari octa finisimo is very sharp at the edges and not as well made as let's say Cartier or even GP? Love the watch but tried in store and I can't imagining wearing it for any length of time.

I’m looking for the silver black bay 58. Wa t a good deal on one like new box and papers…

Hi All,

I am getting the itch for another watch to accompany me on my many travels. I currently mainly use the Nomos Tangomat Worldtime, which I still love. It is sturdy, quirky and also not so expensive that I would freak out if something happened to it.

That being said variety is the spice of life and I am getting the itch. What do you guys wear when traveling?

This is the best price I found for the watch, but is the seller legit? Reviews on the web are mostly good, but some people say to steer clear of Feldmar Watch Company.

I really like them but I really don't want to pay that much for a niche indy running an ETA base with some magnets floating around. I think 20 years down the road and it give me the willies.

But I really like them.

What say you?

What is the forums thoughts on

I’ve have the H. Moser Pioneer Centre Seconds 40mm (same model currently on FTW dealer market) on the black rubber strap it came with, and I’ve been looking to add the stainless steel bracelet. I haven’t been able to find an online retailer selling it. My local AD (Mayors in Tampa) can order one, but it’s $2,400. Does anyone know if these ever show up on the secondary market or another place to source one?

I notice a lot of microbrands and newer brands are doing Jumping Hour watches (I think Maen has one, Radcliffe has one). Not only that, bigger brands are using it regularly too (I think Cartier had one, MB&F’s M.A.D.2 has one). Is it a cheaper and easier type of movement? Gimmicky? Basic? Looks cooler than it really is?

Looks like Federico hasn't entered his 2 grails in his profile yet....the community wants to know!!

Does anyone have recommendations for reliable dealers of vintage Omegas? I am looking for one for a 60th birthday gift for a family member. I want to reduce the risk of buying a lemon so would prefer somewhere that offers a warranty and prefer US based to avoid tariffs.

Thanks!

So I don't have to. Incredible amount of watch for the money I would guess 9 grand takes this. I want it off my Chrono Wishlist so its stops haunting me.

Hi All,

I noticed Fed seems to be a fan of Brooks Brother's polos. I was wondering if anyone else on here is a bit of a clothes horse. Brooks Brothers make up the majority of my wardrobe anymore with a spattering of other brands- isaia, kiton, fort belvadere. Here's a shot of my Breguet, a kiton shirt, and a brooks brothers jacket. Looks like my Tundra needed some gas too.

I am thinking of adding an alarm watch to my collection. The closet thing I currently have is a Christopher Ward Bel Canto, which isn’t an alarm watch, of course, but got me curious.

Does anyone have experience with any of these or any other recommendations:

• JLC Memovox or some older alarm function JLCs with alarms - Master Compressor or Amvox
• the modern version of the Vulcain cricket
• Breguets with an alarm. There appear to be older versions of the Marine or a Classique that also has a dual time function
• Tudor Advisor

These are obviously very different types of watches with different prices but I am still exploring. I know that reliability is a big issue with alarms as servicing can be very expensive.

Any thoughts on the above or other suggestions?

For years, I’ve been trying to win one of the MB&F M.A.D. Raffles. This year I finally won the watch just came. It is very cool and very fun. I didn’t realize that I would have to cut the strap in order to size it. Obviously, it’s a very funky watch and I have about 30 watches already so I’m very selective about ones that I’ll actually wear .. This one is obviously finding funky and cool to show your friends at a watch meet but there are other things I would like to add as well… once I cut the strap obviously it’ll be harder to sell so the question becomes cut or not cut?

Gold watches have a painful price tag these days, but holy moly...

Breguet hands and numerals,

a pulsometer with both black and red,

blued hands on a beautiful white dial!

Wow! This one has me thinking twice about my next watch!

Hey Fed, got a chance to watch the livestream and it was great. Want to piggyback off the questions around watch values and Panerai. I have the PAM00512 with box and papers, which is the 42mm, manual wind, more “dressy” watch that was limited to 2000 pieces. I love this watch, it’s beautiful, but one of those pieces that looks better in the box than on my wrist. I’d love your opinion on this model and what is a fair selling price.

I’d love to learn more about some really good independent watch brands that are out there. There are so many and I’d love to add an independent piece to my collection around the $5k range. Any good value brands in this price range?

Is there any way to get an omega 2024-2025
