I wore my omega aventurine today.

>>733462231
I have the non-date version of that watch but it's currently sitting on my desk. Nice taste anon.

That's a really sweet piece.
Got a speedy pro from 70s myself

LLDND is worth more these days, harder to come by and closer to the original.

Don't be shy over lacking the ability to feel prepy and practical, anon. Hard work will reward you too.

>>733462927
I knew they discontinued the ND version but didn't realize they had gone up in price.

I bought mine for ~$1100 when they first came out. I really like that watch. No yacht to go with it though.

I'm thinking about picking up a Sinn U1 to have as a real dive watch/something more durable, but I'm a wristlet and not sure how I feel about the 44mm size.

Thanks. It took over a year for me to hunt down for a good price.

It was a reward for myself for working myself to brink of death.

I also have a cartier mc tank for formal occasions.

I saw someone on the street with a Skydweller yesterday. My goodness it is pretty. Then I was flabbergasted when I googled the price. Im not there yet lol.

>>733463211
Since they're discontinued, but still gain popularity, this means instant growth in price as people aren't willing to part with them easily. 42mm seems to be the sweet spot in the market as it currently is the most popular size in the big brands and also fits most wrist sizes, meaning more willing hands to claim second hand pieces

>>733463657
Cartier seems to be holding onto their classics. They have some really refined iconic pieces. Nice one, anon

>>733463022
That's the gayest thing I've ever seen on /b/

These are all really very nice. I'm a sucker for the Speedy and that aventurine dial is awesome.

>>733463760
True. Even 42mm is a bit bigger than I would like but the LLD actually fits my wrist quite well.

I'd love to get something a bit more formal but with a metal bracelet in the 36-37mm range. Too bad the old 1019 Milgauss is so expensive. It seems like Grand Seiko is going up in both price and size as well.

>>733463996
insecure, bruh?

>>733464174
Speedy reduced is nice!

This convenient fucker. Waterproof, calculator, timer, dual time, all for $20

I would love another watch but I just had a baby boy. I have a feeling the gravy train is over and it's the long grind to save up for his future.

Definitely get a lot of hate from people who don't understand watches.

>>733463996

It may be less "gay" if you had something in your life to celebrate and mark the moment by treating yourself to a watch.

I take it back, this is the gayest thing I've ever heard.

True, but I feel like its a bit sacrilegious since the original Speedy design is so iconic. The dial balance in the reduced Speedy is kinda off imo.

I'd love to get the Speedy FOIS(First Omega In Space) but it's out of my budget right now. It was a limited edition of 1962 pieces released in 2012 with the original 39.7mm size, no crown/pusher guards, and a slightly different taper to the case.

>>733464593
Well, having to save up can make the purchase a bit more meaningful. And hey, now you have someone to leave your watches to.

I hear what you're saying but the problem is all the other threads are dead.
Hey, I'm just talking shit, watch fags and car fags take these threads so seriously.

>>733465321
lol now this is a fag. Youll never keep up with the joneses with that tiny little cock m8.

I had a e92. V8 tower of power was amazing to rev out. Sold it when it started to have LOTS of problems.

I think omega is much more popular where I am living. I see very few rolexes

>>733465068
Suunto Core right?
Love those things, way out of my price league though..
A buddy of mine has one, it saved our asses while up hiking in the mountains. Gave us a good 45 minute warning before a massive snowstorm hit.

Honestly, take a trip to Asia, buy a high end replica and enjoy yourself for a week... and you can spend less and be happier.

I want a Royal Oak, but even if I had bill gates money I would buy a fake.

I feel you. However, for some of us, these are trophies with story and meaning. It doesn't feel good to live with being a faker, when you can be holding onto the real thing and be proud of it.

>>733465728
Having a great piece to just wack about is always good. I respect that, anon. Feel free to share some good stories where you brought it with u

>>733466068
that's like getting a temporary tattoo, you faggot.

>>733466233
Yes sir. I wear this cheap watch on duty and it gets banged up pretty good from day to day use. I wont ever wear a watch over $30 on duty. Partly because its stupid for edc use if you know its gonna get fucked up. And partly because I'm a jew and would rather spend the money on something else. Any recommendations for a high end luxury watch under $200?

>>733466068
Meh, I love watches but these things are way overpriced. I just bought a replica Tudor Black Bay for $100. I can scarcely tell the difference and I've previously owned a genuine one that I paid $2700 for a while back

>>733466660
where did you buy it?

>>733466588
A used or pre-owned, tissot le locle if you want a dress watch. Some of them have an 80 hour power reserve which is better than a lot of Rolexes.
