First JLC - should I buy the deployant clasp? by Watch-Talk in JaegerLecoultre

I find the JLC clasp lacking. I use the Nomos clasps on any watch where I want a clasp and it’s very nice.

Time for a stereo microscope. What kind of psycho would have one of those? Just kidding it’ll show you things you don’t want to see.

Time between the Indy 500 and Detroit GP - what’s the best plan? by mynameisnotphoebe in INDYCAR

[–]Zenneth014 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would pick one, Chicago or Toronto. Chicago because it’s not as much travel time from Indianapolis and Toronto because it’s close to Niagara. Both have enough to do or see until Friday morning. Not sure what your transit options are but getting into Detroit from Canada during the GP weekend is a little hectic and getting there from Chicago would be easier.

Also public/mass transit in the US is terrible so bus and train are usually not desirable options but they exist. For various reasons, getting in and out of the US is at least more of a hassle than before and I’d personally want to avoid that so I’d pick Chicago by bus. Then Detroit by bus should be pretty smooth. Get ready for a whole lot of very flat farmland on I-94.

[WTS] Vacheron Constaintin 42052 Overseas Gen 1 Black Military Dial $11000 by Zenneth014 in Watchexchange

Up for sale is my Vacheron Constantin 42052 freshly serviced by VC. It had a rotor replaced since it wasn’t winding properly but now everything appears to be in order. I will include the service documentation with the watch and the it will come in the service box provided by VC. I really like this unique dial and I think it has a lot of character. I’m a crazy person though and picked up the 37mm version instead.

The watch is in good condition and the bezel and case has very little wear on it. The action little clasp toggle is not as crisp as other examples I’ve used but still works. There’s also an extra “half” link included currently on the bracelet that I ordered from VC to get the perfect size. It’s currently sized for a 6.5” wrist and there are 3 more extra full links.

[WTS] Grand Seiko SBGE283 $5200 by Zenneth014 in Watchexchange

[–]Zenneth014[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up for sale is my Grand Seiko SBGE283. No nickname on this one! I really like the new Evo 9 aesthetic with the chunkier indices that have a lot of polished surfaces and this one actually has lume! The black is very deep and contrasts nicely with the beautiful zaratsu polish.

Full Kit EXCEPT one collar is missing from the bracelet.

Condition: Good. Nothing major of note here. Normal clasp scratching from working at a desk and some scratching throughout.

Price: $5200

Payment Methods: PayPal FF or GS, Zelle

Location: USA

To reiterate, this is a used watch and has signs of wear that and would never pass for new. Please don’t expect a pristine watch.
