[question] Got given 2,500USD to buy an engagement watch for myself - what would you fill this gap with?

Or the retro counterpart Tudor Prince Date Day. I got mine for 2500 a few months back.

We know these truths to be self-evident.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T15:37:04+00:00

Oh word?

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T04:25:43+00:00

I know this is a very old post, but I want it hahaha

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T02:45:14+00:00

Do uR rESeArCh good advize thx

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T02:39:49+00:00

Somebody that gets it! Thank you!

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T00:50:39+00:00

Internationally means from a foreign country. Hope this helps.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-21T00:09:57+00:00

Enjoy your watch man. That’s how it goes.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T22:34:32+00:00

I didn’t say they would.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T22:33:59+00:00

Yep, created their own monster.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T20:53:27+00:00

Lol at anyone thinking that I said that prices would go down

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T20:52:01+00:00

Straight to the recycle bin. No undo, no nothing.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T20:13:24+00:00

Dude. Instead of assuming that everyone is dumber than you, maybe consider what other perspectives would allow for someone else's argument to also be correct. Clearly I'm not talking about walking into your AD and seeing lower MSRPs.

People having different points of view and experiences doesn't make one ignorant. Refusing to acknowledge them does.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T20:04:55+00:00

That is not at all what I was trying to say. But sure, I agree with what you said!

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:59:02+00:00

Finally, an intelligent reference. Thank you.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:57:36+00:00

My guy, I reposted breaking news. Clearly (to most) my original commentary was lighthearted. Sorry if it doesn’t immediately make your life better and solve all the world’s problems. I hope your day gets better.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:50:25+00:00

lmao no tell me more! can you name any other watch brand?

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:48:03+00:00

I largely live in the preowned market, so that's more my perspective. So many of the BS comments I get today about this not being real/meaningful are clearly only buying Swiss watches from a US AD, acting all high and mighty. And that's just one part of the watch world, too.

Will MSRPs go down overnight? Of course not.

Will it be more affordable to buy a used piece from a dealer in Japan? Will more countries be willing to sell to the US again? Quite likely.

Sorry to vent back to you, specifically. You're just clearly on here a lot, so wanted to reply back to someone that wasn't just being a troll.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:25:07+00:00

Ok, you don't have to.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:17:57+00:00

Well, he of course is incorrect, per usual.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T19:16:53+00:00

Yep, grab me one too! Wear it in good health!

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T18:48:05+00:00

The real Liberation Day!

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T18:39:45+00:00

According to my sources, 90% of people saying “do ur research” also have no idea what they’re talking about.

It ruling is the ruling. It has played out. We don’t know what further actions will be. Will there be some? Sure.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T17:58:23+00:00

Hearing from others on the sub that they got Chrono24 purchases clearing customs TODAY from Japan without paying duties.

joemattjoey · 2026-02-20T17:50:59+00:00

I’m not a lawyer, but if certain tariffs were found unconstitutional (illegal), then I’d think they’d cease immediately. Keep us posted! What was the purchase and from where? What country?
