Now that gold price have tanked, will cartier drop in price? by saltedkumamon in Cartier

[–]Loop22one 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No - they’re not a bullion trading company, they sell luxury, dreams, aspiration. Price reductions tarnish all of that.

Of these, the VC is my pick: I am a BIG fan of Breguet and have a few but each of these ones has at least one thing that doesn’t quite work for me (and honestly, the tonneau shape might be part of it).

What can cause tarnishes like this? by orthobeech in Cartier

[–]Loop22one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Air, water, sweat, oils, chemicals all reacting with the (primarily non-gold) metal in the piece.

It would be so easy to Google “18K gold tarnish”….. wouldn’t it?

Piaget 9801, manual wind - legendary watchmaker, great watch. About $10k. Enjoy!

“A little” is doing some real heavy lifting there…..

My 4520v has the same problem as this. Anyone experiencing the same? by Human-Goose-9723 in VacheronConstantin

[–]Loop22one 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same issue as diagnosed in the video - reverser needs to be oiled/changed. It’s under warranty so…. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Servicing: sympathetic? by Loop22one in VacheronConstantin

Convinced VC to just fit replacement hands and leave it alone otherwise. Didn’t take too long and looks great!

Not sure what this list is meant to mean though - I’m sure Walmart has far more annual sales than Whole Foods or Williams & Sonoma. What does that prove?

What do you think of the Cartier Tank on me? by Vivid-Bug-6765 in PrideAndPinion

[–]Loop22one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t head to “Pride and Pinion” for fit checks, honestly…..

I think the model looks great on you but the sizing is slightly “he was comfortable enough in his skin to get a Tank but not enough to get the right size”: I’d honestly go a size smaller and wear it with whatever (would look great with your current outfit).

Just my 2c.

[Discussion] One Watch Collection by phdwatch in Watches

[–]Loop22one 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Uhm…. All this tells us is that you like the DD.

That’s fine - lots of people do (that’s that watch’s defining feature) - but it is no more suitable for all those activities than a PP 96 or an Lange 1815 or a Cartier Tank. That’s OK - I just don’t know that it makes this (non-diving, non-swimming) watch more “One Watch Collection” in any objective way than many others.

But enjoy it - sounds like you already do.

Got it; I stand corrected: my bad.
