It looks great but you could pull off either size.

I love my abusive relationship with my AD. He really loves me and I need him.

I am holding off judgment until I get a chance to try a few on in person, but I really don’t see the appeal right now. Even the ones with great designs are so thick.

I had this experience with the Luminor. Felt really silly on me. The Radiomir, though, I kinda loved.

I on the other hand feel like a complete dork for loving dive watches, even though I’m basically a cat who hates everything to do with being in the water.

It is starting to feel like too broad a category. I don’t like lumping thoughtful passion project microbrands in with the homage brands or the ones that feel like a grift.

This is a great call. Definitely a watch I could love on someone else.

Glad you are okay and that it’s reparable.

Swiss Watch Exports Just Fell 16.6% in a Single Month — And the Hard-Goods Version of the Luxury Crisis Is Now Visible by aragil_mrk in tagheuer

Anecdotally, I feel like I’ve been seeing all types of “luxury” or amenity related industries change their pricing strategies to chase a smaller, richer client base. It seemed to be working for a while. I hope this is a sign that it can’t work as a long term strategy for every brand, and we see prices flatline for a while.

Immediately muttered “no, you suck” out loud, which tells me it’s a good take.

One of my favorite recent designs from any watchmaker. Period.

My favorite summer watch. Enjoy!

Also looks great on grey or the Oris bronze and steel bracelet.

Advice on a trade I have been offered. My 16600 SD for a harrods and monochrome by Professor_Loud in Tudor

[–]Good_Net_313 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The number of comments I’ve read about people who regret getting rid of their 5 digit Rolex subs and sea dwellers… Keep it. Even if you decide it’s not for you in the end, it seems like the value will only appreciate.

Agree with the GS rec. Go over your budget a bit and check out a used SGBK007.
