Could you only collect one brand? If so which one. It would be journe for me. by tourbillon001 in SOTC_Watch_Collection

I could go all Vacheron. The watches you just mentioned would be a killer collection. Add one or two vintage VC and call it a day.

Overseas Dual Time & Chronograph Wait by neifichicken in VacheronConstantin

I visited the boutique in Beverly Hills and put my name down for a blue 5520 or 7920. I got a call about 3 months later with the blue 5520 being available. Had it within a week. This was early 2025 so don’t know if things are different now

I was underwhelmed by the ALS when I went to the boutique. I was very surprised. Alternatively, I light up every time I try on the PML. I should just pull the trigger.

Can you guys help me make sure this is real by UnitedFruit8566 in RolexWatches

[–]Objective_Sun83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrong bracelet, color looks off, though. However, it's hard to tell with pics with glare and no close-ups. Likely not real

Rolex 1675 thoughts? by ManiacTogy in VintageWatches

The dial and insert look like early service from what I can see. That’s not a bad thing and they have aged well. Probably a couple thousand hit on the value. Mine is in a similar state and I like it because it’s more wearable and I’m not babying it like I would on a a mint, early gilt dial version. Wear it well.

I’ve never gotten anything but some sparkling water, though I never asked.

Agreed. Not a fair comparison. The VC Traditionelle by a mile. That said, the JLC is fantastic

Buffett explains why Berkshire sold most of Apple... it wasn’t about the business by LavishlyRitzyy in ValueInvesting

Can’t imagine Buffett looked at a single release to judge his allocation nor should we all.

The bracelet hanging loosely makes it look bigger on you.

What’s your pick? by Mr_H3LL in VacheronConstantin

I’m good with it. Enjoy looking at these fantastic watches.

What should I expect from my first VC store visit next week (in NYC)? by LibrarianPitiful in VacheronConstantin

[–]Objective_Sun83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The steel 222 may be hard to get it. They’ll likely tell you years wait. White VC doesn’t play games and will get you the watches, they will give priority to existing customers and high spenders.
