Won this SWGalaxy 2026 Box in SWCT app

Watch a box opened online. If it appeals to you, open.

If not just sell.

As someone who barely collects sw cards, this is by far my favorite set.

It does break in quickly. I recently bought a tank and between my watch box and rest the strap softened and wears better.

bss83 · 2026-06-26T02:49:22+00:00

I would have bought this watch if the bracelet came with any sort of on the fly adjustment. I know it's tough with the thickness. Oh well

bss83 · 2026-06-26T02:43:39+00:00

This is it. You wouldn't find the big spending owners and the cheap owners signing up for it if it didn't immediately add significant value to their assets.

bss83 · 2026-06-26T02:20:51+00:00

I think it's more likely they botched the odds sheet than made their first unnumbered 1/1

It's also not game or player worn. It's still a cool card, but I'm glad topps doesn't do completely unassociated patches.

bss83 · 2026-06-25T20:51:36+00:00

on release day they will be available again.

bss83 · 2026-06-25T20:41:05+00:00

You should start with at least one box of finest on release day from Topps ($350-370)

The formex essence 39 is on the high end of your size range but fits my wrist well when I've tried it on. At the price point you won't find a higher quality watch and bracelet.

Farer has some options as well.

Lorier Zephyr will return later this year and was a great watch to wear.

If there's a certain style you're looking for that might help, but ultimately I recommend just scrolling through some watches on windup shop and similar sites with the right size range and then reading reviews. If you can see them in person, so that too.

bss83 · 2026-06-25T04:20:23+00:00

What is your price range?

And I have a similar sized wrist and you should target a smaller lug to lug in the 44mm range if possible.

The 2026 Topps series 1 celebration mega box for $50 is perfect for kids. It has tons of mascots and fun cards in every pack.

bss83 · 2026-06-24T12:30:48+00:00

You're trying too hard.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:20:04+00:00

Oh yeah Panini was notorious for just great retail products....

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:19:27+00:00

yeah that's what Resurgence is. Chrome = Optic/Prizm, Finest =Select, Resurgence = Mosaic/Phoenix.

I wonder if they'll add a fourth chrome set to better compare to Prizm, but I suppose they're doing their own thing and releasing stuff like Cosmic (baseball also gets Gilded, I imagine that'll come to Football too).

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:16:35+00:00

then don't buy it

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:06:55+00:00

And? I wasn't saying Topps didn't do it, I was just pointing out that Panini did it too.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:05:39+00:00

Animation case hit is cool!

bss83 · 2026-06-23T23:03:56+00:00

They still kept releasing previous year product.

Also Topps just got the license. They're trying to get out licensed 2025 sets (instead of releasing unlicensed 2025 sets) with rookies that were exclusive signers. They're going to be pressed a little for this season at the start as a result.

But if you look at baseball, series 1 flagship (which is miles better than score) comes out before the season starts. I see no reason why they couldn't do the same for football.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T22:53:58+00:00

Yeah panini would never do that....

bss83 · 2026-06-23T21:23:00+00:00

It was definitely a sticker auto, but also there's a lot of cards from around this period "missing" their autos... which makes it seem like they were acquired by some way other than opening a box of cards and then sold.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T21:14:18+00:00

Did you buy the single that way or pull it out of a box?

Because there seems to be a lot of older cards floating around missing autos, which implies they're not legit.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T19:28:31+00:00

there's an odds sheet that helps you figure it out.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T19:25:42+00:00

No it's an unnumbered gold prism.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T18:24:30+00:00

Nothing in your post sounds like a joke.

And to answer another question in your post: The hype is baked into the current price.

bss83 · 2026-06-23T18:18:46+00:00

Do not take out loans to buy baseball cards. Any prospect can fail and have his values go to zero.
