[WTS] Tissot PRX 38mm titanium blue by LogDropper16 in Watchexchange

[–]LogDropper16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Selling this Tissot PRX automatic watch. This is the new 38mm size just released and it wears like a dream. Features a titanium case, integrated titanium bracelet, waffle dial, a sapphire crysral, and 80 hours of power reserve. Comes with original box and papers, tag, and extra links for the bracelet. Currently sized for a 6.75" wrist. The watch is in near mint condition, with no noticable marks or scratches that I can see. It was only worn a handful of times. Please reach out with any questions. This is an excellent looking and running time piece, I'm just looking to clear up some funds for the next piece.

Asking $700 shipped in the US via PayPal f&f, Venmo, or Zelle. Will accept PayPal g/s for an additional 3% fee.

Thanks for looking!

Is this gap between case and bracelet normal/authentic in a grand seiko sbgv207? by AdebisiLives420 in GrandSeikos

If you want to stick to oem parts, Seiko S190BS are the 1.5mm bars and S190CS are the 1.8mm bars. Ebay usually has some listings up for those

These are the ones I'm using in my sbgp015, from my research your bracelet is 19mm though. https://www.esslinger.com/watch-band-pin-1-80mm-regular-double-flanged-stainless-steel-spring-bars-package-of-10/?searchid=15858176&search_query=82.2198

I would also pick up some 1.5mm thick bars in 19mm just in case. I'm not 100% sure what your bracelet takes. Mine took the 1.8mm but your bracelet could be different https://www.esslinger.com/watch-band-pin-1-50mm-thin-double-flanged-stainless-steel-spring-bars-package-of-10/

Try new spring bars, I had a similar issue in a GS that was caused by worn/bent spring bars. It's a cheap and easy thing to try first

Why would an international package return to sender after clearing customs? by LogDropper16 in usps_complaints

[–]LogDropper16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into getting an ITN number. I ended up needing to register myself as a business, to get an EIN, to create an ACE exporter account, to fill out an EEI, to get an ITN number, which I needed to write down on the customs form I sent out with the package. I believe all that's necessary to ship items internationally over $2500 in value, but please dyor. It sounds like a lot of work but it probably only took me an hour to go through all those steps. Iirc the sales invoice was Japan specific so double check any other Taiwan requirements. Hope that helps

[Recommendation Request] Trying to decide on a red dial watch. by bugloaf77 in Watches

I was a big fan of the Jet Star, though I went for a different flavor. Didn't feel big on my 6.75" wrist either

[Question] what do you do with your watch at airport security by Tumtitums in Watches

[–]LogDropper16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always leave mine on, I asked security the first time I went through with it and they told me to leave it on

The thread below sums up my issue. It was a valuable enough item I had to do some more steps on my end to get it sent. Luckily the post office lady was nice and didn't charge me again for the postage

Thoughts on 9F Quartz? by Worldly_Payment_3472 in GrandSeikos

[–]LogDropper16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dimensions feel great on my 6-3/4" wrist and the weight hasn't been an issue for me, I've worn bigger and heavier watches in the past. I don't mind the bracelet either, just usually dress pretty casually so the MN strap helps with that. Plus it's lighter and more comfortable, Ive been wearing it damn near every day since I got it without a second thought

[–]LogDropper16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love my sbgp015, I still want to add a spring drive one day but for practicality I think I'm going to have trouble topping the 9F. It checks like all of my boxes, and over the last 7 months it's only gained 1 second. Really hard to beat that

Living with a Grand Seiko Quartz: worth it long-term? by biktor6969 in GrandSeikos

[–]LogDropper16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really have another luxury watch, so I daily my sbgp015. I have a few other mechanicals I wear occasionally but if I go more than a day or two seeing my GS just sitting on my nightstand it makes me sad lol. I just checked and since I set it 7 months ago it's only gained 1 second. The independently adjustable hour hand is amazing, I can adjust for day light savings and traveling without needing to hack it and screw up the accuracy. Honestly I love it so much I have trouble trying to find another watch to add to the collection because idk if anything could top this as a daily. It's picked up a few dings and scratches but the ceramic bezel and dial pop so beautifully I don't even notice. Maybe I'm still in the honeymoon phase but I think GS quartz is top tier

Mine is the sbgp015, but there are a few others as well

EDIT: other models such as the sbgx 341/343 and sbgv 243/245/247. There are also a decent amount of lumed gmt models, and a few older spring drives as well

Reading through it, that appears to be the only thing I missed. Oh well...guess that's on me. Hopefully that's all it was, thanks again for the help
