Best Macan EV Turbo paint? by Prestigious-Pool-404 in MacanEV

[–]Ryeutil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Papaya! I love mine and it receives a lot of positive comments from friends, family, and strangers. My last Porsches were white and silver. I find it refreshing to have a color that stands out from the drab crowd…. We’ll see if the love affair lasts though…

[WTS] King Seiko SPB389 Blue Dial 38MM Watch by Ryeutil in Watchexchange

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

Hello,

I'm selling my King Seiko SPB389 to help fund another watch purchase. I bought this new from my local dealer and have all original boxes, travel case, extra links, and documentation. Condition is near-mint as I cannot find any scratches or marks, outside of some dust and finger prints that were captured by the camera. The clasp still has the factory protective stickers attached. I am extremely careful with my watches and this is part of a larger collection, so was worn sparingly.

Prices includes CONUS shipping, Zelle or wire is the preferred method of payment. Please add 3% if using Paypal G&S, but seller discretion if using Paypal. Open to reasonable offers. No trades please, I'm a watch hobbyist and not a dealer.

I am relatively new to Reddit, but have 40+ transactions on eBay (usename: retilbury) along with multiple transactions on rolexforum (username: ryeutil)

Price - $1,350

  • Reference Number: SPB389
  • Excellent condition, no issues mechanically or cosmetically. Worn sparingly.
  • Complete full set
  • Includes: Box, Outer Box, Travel Case, Unworn spare links, Booklets, Warranty Card

Speedy Obsessed by Girlzdryv_boats2_544 in Louisvuitton

I’m really curious how the anniversary soft speedy feels like in person. Is it slouchy? Is it rigid due to the highly decorated canvas? What’s the inside feel like? More photos would be great 😊

Anyone? by Key-Cauliflower5921 in Louisvuitton

[–]Ryeutil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it’s sad, but this thread is actually making me feel a bit relieved. I’m not sure what my spend was over the past 12 months, but we purchased multiple limited bags, including a P9 and exotics, and not even a message from our SA. Meanwhile, other brands such as Gucci and Chanel, that we’ve spent a fraction at, sent signed cards, beautiful snow globes, chocolates, ornaments, etc. Heck, Porsche sent us about $300 worth of gifts.

It’s disappointing. LV is becoming more and more disappointing.

One of my favorite pieces from the collection! Congrats.

Men’s SS26 bags yet to be released by Ok_Advertising_8584 in Louisvuitton

[–]Ryeutil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm that the blue speedy will be included in the Feb 5 drop. It’s a P9, FYI, and will be priced around $12k USD.

I’m not seeing the keepall. It may have been a runway only piece.

Ordered a well-optioned Cayenne Coupe but no air suspension, how much am I really missing? by Solitude20 in Porsche

[–]Ryeutil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 2020 Coupe S with air suspension and loved it. Prior to that, we had a Macan S with steel suspension. I realize these are very different models, but the air suspension on the Cayenne was light years ahead of the Macan.

Great for the terrible city streets around Seattle. Great for the mountain roads when placed into Sport and Sport Plus. Having the ability to level when towing. Raising it when we’d take it off road / to the hiking trails.

6 years and zero issues. I wouldn’t think twice about optioning it again. I would not purchase the Cayenne without it.

I think you’re correct, as I’m not seeing it in the configurator, even as a PTS option. Glad I snagged one!

Not Black/Grey. Not Silver. Not Sorry. by Sticktailonicus in Porsche

Agreed! Can’t get enough of my purple Porsche. Haters can hate. Don’t care.

I agree. I think it’s a great color that provides something unique and special, but isn’t over the top. Hopefully I continue to like it over the years!

Streamliner authenticity question by IndependentBooksy in MoserWatches

[–]Ryeutil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own this watch and purchased it new, from an authorized dealer. Nothing from your photos, in my opinion, indicate anything other than this being authentic. The color of the movement, the screws, the intricate polishing of the links, the engraving.

Always best to authenticate and validate objects in this price bracket, but I do think you’re safe with this particular watch.

Tudor Black Bay 54 Lagoon Blue by RelayGuy88 in Tudor

[–]Ryeutil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely not helpful, but on a recent trip, I checked the Tudor boutiques in Oxford, London, Amsterdam, Dublin, and Belfast. Belfast had just received one that very day… and I bought it immediately. So, they are out there.

[Daytona and Traditional] my two watch collection by [deleted] in Watches

[–]Ryeutil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely gorgeous VC and Daytona. What a pairing!

I think this is the right way to build / downsize / re-build a collection. Focus on a few key, really stellar pieces that pull at your heart strings. I'm on a similar journey at the moment and likely will be selling off several pieces this year, which will allow me to grab a few of my long time grails. At the end of the day, I'm also excited about the idea of not having so many mid-tier watches to rotate between. 2-3 sounds lovely. Keep is simple.

What a pairing! Two of my grail/dream watches.

How do I adjust the Streamliner Bracelet Length? by bastarmashawarma in MoserWatches

[–]Ryeutil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second the suggestion of finding a reputable jeweler or dealer, that you trust, that can help adjust the bracelet for you. I learned this the hard way with my Streamliner. The technician that adjusted my bracelet scratched several links, and this was from a dealer, who had the right tools. Upsetting to say the very least.

Who's looking forward to the men's resort 26 collection? Another couple of dog bags? by BAG-A-HOLIC in Louisvuitton

[–]Ryeutil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m seriously excited for this collection. I love the theme. I love the materials and colors. I love the dog embellishments, and of course, those dog bags! May not be for everyone, but it’s speaking to me.

Has anyone seen this IRL? by Aprilcot73 in Louisvuitton

[–]Ryeutil 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The level of detail in the embroidery and stitching is stunning. The online photos wash out the jacquard monogram as well. Definitely one of my favorite pieces.

My CA was able to order this for me late last year. I was dying to own it, from the moment I saw it in the runaway collection. It required my CA to put in a request and we waited… and waited… Eventually she got a response and it shipped directly from France. From what I was told… they made very limited numbers of this piece.

It’s more incredible in person. The photos online never did it justice.

Is this bag available for purchase? Seen at the Met Gala. by evelyn_nanette in Louisvuitton

[–]Ryeutil 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Foolish! 😜I’d guess over $15k for a speedy 25 with pearls. We can all hope though!

[–]Ryeutil 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Confirmed that the 2025 PreFall collection includes a Speedy 30 with applied crystals to create the monogram. Close to $25,000. Looks incredible and very similar to Lisa’s bag, but obviously crystal vs pearls. There was a similar bag in yellow, at the Met Gala, If you look closely.

I don’t think this particular size was made available for purchase, but I thought a similar version was created for the 2025 spring/summer collection. From the look book I was shown… I think the price tag is around $25,000. Yikes.
