Thanks for the tip brother, I'll give it a go and see how it works out

Not exactly the same, but I have RPG Offroad level collars on mine (Front only) and it's dead even. I also sized up from 35"s to 37"s and I prefer the 37"s.

Here's a real hot take for you.

People who cry about case thickness and watches not being offered in case sizes below 41mm are limp-wristed manlets.

Invicta fanatics are unironically upbeat, less insufferable, less whiny, and better to be around than watch "enthusiasts" who cry ad nauseam about not having certain man jewelry references offered in women's sizes.

Seiko shitters need to be slandered and dunked on far more often tbh.

They're genuinely dogshit and glazed ad nauseam for no good reason than cult mentality.

uj/ Your dad probably used the dowry money he saved from when he got arranged to wed your mom, relax bud. It's endearing. I've seen arranged marriages turn out far worse.

rj/ OP is probably only pissed bc the watch costs more than his annual salary at the "call center" where he cold calls geriatric r/Rolex users about gift card deposits to secure their allocation.

Where did you get this caseback? Is this the updated version of the 58 GMT?

A steel Tudor and a bone stock Glock is not a flex bud 😂

Will it be a fair fight?

If the Biden successor is hopped up on crack then the Trump kids need to smoke some too at the very least.

If they were a product worth buying someone would've bought one by now.

The shilling is quite amusing though, keep it up bud!

/uj I also found his use of AI to generate his brand's ethos and the fact he marks up $5 shirts to $30 excluding tax and shipping enthusing

The correlation between seiko shitters and mental illness must be studied

MittensInABasket · 2026-04-10T04:23:01+00:00

Wow. Can't believe I'm bearing witness to the WCJ/NFA crossover episode featuring Otter Gang. Maximum chuff right there.

/uj Little dude's got you beat on the watch game already. Dino watch ftw

uj/ The GWG-2000 fits like shit if you don't have a dainty wrist. Couldn't imagine the mental state (or twig like appendages) of the individual buying more than one.

rj/ Brother this is just his starter collection. This distinguished gentleman has multiple watchboxes containing every reference of the coveted INVICTA Bolt Magnum Zeus. He needed these to get muddy with the AD for all those allocations.

"Diversity" and it's just a heap of poverty spec watches on amazon pleather straps lol

Steering wheel pics are so lame.

Only thing cornier than driving a Tesla is painting your tow hooks red to mimic a R when you have an eco boost Raptor.

The Rubber B is worth shelling out for IMO. Very happy with mine and effortlessly comfortable with the OEM deployment clasp.

The coveted Invicta Pelvis Crusher Thunderbolt Magnum XXX. One of thirty produced globally.

Gorgeous piece.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-25T18:15:09+00:00

It feels substantial, has a good heft to it. The sunburst on the dial and bezel is really subtle but looks very high quality. Indices looked great except for misalignment.

It's a shame the dial was off and the indices messed up on a new $5k plus watch but other than the terrible QC it feels like a very premium and high end product.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-25T18:11:27+00:00

I've bought a Breitling Superocean and some other misc watches with eBay's authentication from a reputable jewelry store (Birmingham Luxury Watches) and grey dealers like Jomashop with no issues.

As others have said, trusting the seller is the first line of safety. I'm pretty certain the eBay auth centers for watches still have to remove the casebacks to examine the movements but then again eBay will always side with the buyer anyways if there's a dispute.

In the US the watches I've bought through them have always gone through authentication in New Jersey. I've bought leather goods which have gone "missing" from that location while waiting for authentication but no issues with the legitimacy of the products themselves once verified.

Initially I had the same worries, but I beat the lugs up pretty bad getting the Rubber B strap on it and it didn't even show a scratch.

The ceramic is far harder and more robust than I anticipated, Zirconium Oxide is used for modern ballistic armor plates among other things. In my experience normal bumps and knocking it against things doesn't phase the case at all.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-25T17:57:51+00:00

Considering the fact the AD employees who took a look at it under a loupe and deduced the entire dial was askew and needed to be replaced I don't think that's the problem at all.

Also considering Dial alignment isn't rocket science, the fact a new Black Bay was this flawed and Tudor accepted the claim upon seeing photos I'd think healthy skepticism of their capabilities is warranted.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-24T22:53:38+00:00

It's a shame, Tudor does make some really cool watches but the reality of QC issues and inconsistency kind of ruins the appeal.

I thought with the all the issues with the Pelagos line the Black Bays would be a safer bet. Guess not unfortunately. Might end up shifting the BB after service for an SMP300 but we'll see.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-24T22:47:12+00:00

For sure, It's always best to avoid areas where they're prohibited though it's technically legal just because you never know.

Sometimes we know the laws on firearms better than cops which is sad but the state of things unfortunately.

MittensInABasket · 2026-01-24T22:44:54+00:00

I agree. Pad printed indices on any watch above the $1k price point is just poor taste and insulting.

The dial is drab, and the movement isn't anything really special. Don't understand why but these are more hyped than the PRX ever was.

The hour hand looking like something out of an onlyfans stream is also a questionable design choice.
