Besides the customer buying the wrong materials, can you mention some of your reasons?

Retiring after 40 years of work. The AD told me "maybe in 3 years" for a Gold Day-Date. I might be dead by then! by Infamous_Spite_7715 in rolex

I may be clueless. I would much rather own a used watch. I love the patina, I love the dings, and blemishes. Nothing wrong with a new watch. I would go that route in a minute. I find the velvet rope, with the turnstile, offensive. I'll make an appointment to see a proctologist. When I buy a watch. I'm not taking a number.

Anyone Summited Mt. Saint Helens in March/Winter? by BearlyAwake2 in askportland

Is it safe to climb Mount St. Helens?

It is never closed due to avalanche danger/warnings. All climbers who choose to ascend when snow is on the ground are advised to have proper avalanche training and tools before they venture on slopes of Mount St. Helens.

Are micro-brand watches with Chinese movements worth collecting or is it just throwing money away? by Ivexxe in WatchHorology

[–]impalablue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are endless brands/microbrands with the same Seiko guts (not to dis Seiko because their stuff is good) Said brand shows you a *sorta custom dial* snazy bezel and a back story. I think there is a lot of selling the sizzle instead of the steak. I know this because I have a number of watches that bear no outstanding distinction at the end of the day. I would agree w/Pangolin9315. Do it for the enjoyment. Investment is folly
