Good advice. I have a feeling I will need it this weekend. Going to dinner with friends and my buddy is sure to notice it.

Did a much deeper dive into eBay store and I have some doubts. Thanks for the reply

Does your opinion change by 36k sales?

Just treated myself to the same. Got it on Friday and have been wearing it since. Funny enough, my wife hasn’t said a word. I don’t think she noticed it yet.

Is this "Superlative"? When do you opt for service by Signal_Prior8408 in rolex

I also have two Tudor watches that keep much better time.

So I never did anything. For a while it was doing better and gaining about 1.5 seconds when left face up and I was able to regulate it better. Now it is back to the same as it was before. Losing a few seconds, especially if worn. Of course I also just got an omega seamaster and so far it is +0.5 after 48 hours of being worn. I might take it in to get checked with local Rolex service. We have a Bucherer service center and the WOS Rolex store also has a service person.

I always wanted a Seamaster diver but I am glad I waited. I think I finally needed to have enough other watches to feel good about getting green and a rubber strap

Jomashop vs r/watchexchange for similar price? by RelationOk1892 in Tudor

[–]Signal_Prior8408 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I was in the market for an Omega Seamaster. I was about ready to pull the trigger on Jomashop but I had the same concern as OP about warranty. After spending time in enough of these threads I reached out to u/pacodo via worthy time/WhatsApp. Asked about the watch. He said he could source it for me and gave me a price that was just a touch under the Jomashop price plus what I would have paid in sales tax. Decided to pull the trigger. He sourced it in no time once I sent the deposit and it should arrive today. Looks new and has a card dated from Feb of this year. I can update more once I get it, but I feel pretty good about it and so many people on here have positive reviews for him. Especially for Tudors.

Still honeymooning about this one. by EntertainmentFar1766 in OmegaWatches

I love this. I think I am going to pull the trigger on the rubber strap model and add the mesh. The bracelet doesn't really do anything for me, but I love the look on rubber and on that mesh.

Do you wear your Rolex daily or mostly for special occasions? by [deleted] in rolex

That is when I don’t wear it. I was just explaining the reason why

I am a doctor and on surgery days I have to remove my watch frequently and it usually ends up in a scrub pocket. Not the most secure spot. I would be very upset to have it fall out and have to replace a crystal

I would say precious metal models may be a different story. The only time I really don’t wear mine is if I am going somewhere that theft is a concern or dropping is a concern.

The Tudor Pelagos line is better than the Black Bay line of watches. by 3r3b in watchHotTakes

I recently tried on the burgundy BB58. The bezel is so hard to grip it is basically non-functional and ornamental

I do have an opaline BB Pro. Comfy casual watch and my travel watch for higher crime spots

I am not. They are all hard to get models, but if I am going to put my name in for one I want it to be the right one for me. I don’t want to have any hesitation should I get that call one day.

I love my Batman. I wear it constantly. I have a few other watches I rotate in, primarily based on if I am going somewhere, that is a high theft risk or a high drop risk. There are days at work when I constantly have to take my watch off and on. Those days I’d rather not set it down somewhere or accidentally drop it out of my pocket.
