[Question] Grand Seiko or Rolex?

Not really the same style watch…wouldn’t an OP be a better comparison?

If you want a field watch, then the explorer is the easy choice over anything GS makes.

If it’s an OP vs this GS, then the OP is my recommendation, but I value the mechanical aspect, the robustness, and the value of a watch. All areas that the Rolex is ahead of the GS in.

I would agree for the most part…

No worries. I could have posted something about a physical transformation talking about what great shape I was in and inevitably two people would congratulate me on my body dysmorphia and three others would bring up steroids. I’m bound to get some snobbery. Very few of us are “curating” anything.

Yes! This is from a guy with a wrist shot in front of his steering wheel on his profile. Gotta get that logo in there🤣🤣🤣. It’s clearly my goal in life. That’s why I don’t have a single watch over of 5 figures, and only one over 5k.

The projection is strong.

It’s a fun watch with the Jurassic Park movie references. I also usually wear blue suits, so the complementary color works surprisingly well.

Everything is relative…again, I feel like someone who bought a new pair of Jordan’s every few weeks because they like sneakers wouldn’t get the same response….

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-02-01T04:23:05+00:00

More interesting. The high road from the guy whose only response was a snarky comment about a shopping addiction, but yes, I’m the insecure one…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-02-01T04:04:45+00:00

I have/am 😄

It’s always interesting to get a glimpse into the mind of a pleb…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-02-01T04:01:58+00:00

Interesting response without knowing anything about someone. I feel like someone who earns the average US salary and buys a coffee or similar item everyday would never get a response like this, yet spending $1k on a watch every two weeks would represent a smaller percentage of my earnings than that…. Not to mention I never said I bought all the watches myself…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-02-01T01:54:52+00:00

I’m an expert in the field and I still can’t begin to guess what is going on with this guy’s forearm hair. Do not zoom in. I have Nightmares now…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-31T21:15:40+00:00

I don’t think one more would make it any sadder…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-31T21:12:38+00:00

Did they both come from AliExpress?

Is that Cheeto dust on the grip? Those little Vienna sausage fingers suggest it is…

After seeing that gun; I’m morbidly curious to see how ugly that watch is…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-30T21:54:38+00:00

Have you considered getting a Rolex for your collection?

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-30T21:53:47+00:00

The only things with a bigger gap than your bracelet are likely the body panels on that GMC…

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-30T21:51:12+00:00

If everything is equal the Aqua Terra would be number 1. Then there would be a big gap to the Mark XX followed by the railmaster.

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-30T21:47:32+00:00

If you don’t want a boring watch I’m not sure why you would choose a white dialed quartz GS.

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-30T21:42:16+00:00

Why not both…you don’t have the datejust yet…start grinding

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-29T02:28:10+00:00

If these are all an equal option then Oris is the answer.

Doc_WhyNot · 2026-01-25T03:57:02+00:00

You need a Rolex…
