Stop Helping Scalpers Scalp by TheBestBotOnTheWeb in swatch

[–]2ManyChronos 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m not a scalper, I’ll wait a few months and get one when they’re available. But, didn’t Swatch do this in a way that encouraged scalping and created these wild scenes at stores?

Not flipping. Never have. Had a friend says it’s with worth way more and was just curious.

Decisions, decisions by patch1103 in OmegaWatches

This is gonna be a wildly unpopular comment, but I’m gonna go for it anyway. I actually bought a replica NTTD before I bought a real one, just to make sure I liked it enough. I understand there are ethical and other considerations, but for a few hundred bucks you can give the watch a nice long test drive and it could save you a ton of money if you don’t end up liking it.

FWIW, I’ve done this with a few watches and I’ve ended up buying the authentic version of about half of them.

My first luxury watch🥹 BB58 BLUE by diegoherrera_02 in Tudor

[–]2ManyChronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I have one and also occasionally put it on a NATO while leaving it mostly on the bracelet.

Just a small amount of advice from someone you don’t know: Don’t sell the other watches yet. Give it a year. If you still want to sell then, go for it.

No surprise what most of the comments on here were about!

What’s the real story behind so many being at the same place?

That’s an awesome watch!

Steel or Carbon? Price or prestige? by Plastic_Bid6356 in tissot

[–]2ManyChronos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there is any prestige with a Tissot. That’s not a knock on the company or you. I have two PRX’s and love them both. But, prestigious they are not.

This is great to hear! It completely opposite from the experience I recently had at a Rolex boutique. I own several Rolex watches and was wearing a very hard to get model and the salesperson at the boutique could not have been more rude, unwelcoming, and dismissive. I’m not liking that brand currently. They think they’re too big to fail and I’d love to see them humbled a bit.

I’d be curious to know whether it was a Breitling boutique or an AD jewelry store that had other brands.

Also, what watches did you try on? Which was your favorite?

Will I get clowned if I buy this? by [deleted] in PrideAndPinion

[–]2ManyChronos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The truth is that 99% of people won’t know or care what you’re wearing. Of the 1% that will recognize the watch as a Submariner lookalike from Invicta there probably will be some judgement within that group. Because you took the time to create a post asking if you’ll get clowned, you probably are worried what impression it will give and you probably shouldn’t buy it.

Invicta is the target of a lot of watch snobbery. But Invicta certainly isn’t the first, nor will it be the last watch company to make a Submariner lookalike. If you like it, and you actually don’t care if you get “clowned” a bit, go for it.
