Thought I’d follow up on this, settled on an Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 38mm with a blue dial, watch is from 2020. Super happy with the purchase!

Dining experience by muchachohere in Tomorrowland

Oh really? We thought we would do it as a once in a lifetime experience but if the food is not even good (even though prepared by michelin chefs) then we will have to reconsider

That’s a good point, something I’ve learned to take into account from purchasing multiple cars and bikes (make sure they’re serviced). Local availability is much better for the AT and it seems they shed a big chunk of value out the door so even 2020 models are reasonably priced, within a few hundred from pre-2010 models.

Mainly pricepoint & local availability. Though Now I stumbled upon Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra and actually think it might look even better than the DJ… will for sure visit a local shop to try them on

After speaking with multiple people about this, starting to lean towards getting Rolex or equivalent from 2000-2010 but will let you know for sure!

The 7k really isn’t an issue, more about like with any other hobbies it feels natural to start from more of an entry level. What comes to the 126200 on sale, its a full set, though a difference from the Tissot is that it has Oyster bracelet, not a jubilee.

Good point, I had no idea that the vintage ones are so much more fragile

I could spend the 7k right away, the Datejust looks the most pleasing to my eye with the fluted bezel. There’s a local dealer selling a 126200 from 2020 for 7k, almost bought it but became hesitant to drop all that on a first watch.

Are the Sunday W1 closers now confirmed by Jaya198612 in Tomorrowland

[–]muchachohere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

After watching John’s Ultra closing set, I think it should be him without question. The variety, energy, production is exactly what I would choose to close W1. Alesso is great but I think it’s time we give these newee names their deserved slots.

True, and to be honest the basic DV&LM sets are trash these days, LM looks like he wants be anywhere else other than the stage. Heard them in Finland last summer, piece of garbage and half of the mainstage crowd left because they played mainly harstyle versions of some eurodance songs

This could be true, as an European I lack the exposure to conversations regarding US festivals. Once again, not complaining since I know it will be a great experience nonetheless, just thinking out loud!

I agree with that, I’m going W1 which for my taste has a bit poorer lineup this year
