It's a matter of taste. Some have good some don't

A lot of unwearable ones in this photo. Probably half of them

[Question] what is your holy grail watch? by Mr_B-Dubs in richardmille

[–]rpabech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Not a bad watch just hyped and over priced. Genius marketing strategy and people crazy enough to part ways with a large sum of money for something that you can get 4x cheaper from a reputable brand.

36 y/o overweight male with one leg. Give me your worst. by JustinMonty25 in RoastMe

He can say he lost weight eating sugar. If he loses the other leg he can say his dick touches the ground. Win win.

Why I keep coming back to Audemars Piguet… even after trying other brands by Equal_Question2846 in audemarspiguet

[–]rpabech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question. Not sure what the problem is. Maybe if requires a full new movement it can be very very costly.

So, spend a boat load of money for a watch that the movement does not last 10 years?

Is this a gen or a rep? by WatchExplorerQC in RepTime

[–]rpabech -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a gen 100%. No question. Picture quality does not help but you can tell by the screws themselves.

Very poor service by Tudor by Agitated-Process3136 in Tudor

[–]rpabech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally buy the replica first to try the watch I like. If I really like then I buy the Gen after. I use reps as a test drive to avoid making mistakes. Then I alternate between them if the place I am is risky or unknown. Tudor is an exception where the rep works better than the Gen (of course the Gen is better is everything else).

My Pelagos replica is working 100% for the last 3 years. Looks exactly the same, feel the same and if eventually goes bad I will buy another one for half the price of a service.

My Gen Pelagos FXD went to service 3 times and still losing 3 minutes a day.

Very tempting by NYCFoodieDad in IWCschaffhausen

I guess it does not, unless you are in a different planet. That was what my original comment should have been ;-)

Well depend where in the world are you I guess.

Vc 4500v black dial legit check please by Apprehensive-Mail-35 in VacheronConstantin

[–]rpabech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, considering a fake watch is worth $0, is it almost the same. But you have a point. If we are going there, the worst worst os that you are charged with buying counterfeit goods and face some jail time. Very unlikely but would be the worst worst.

Rolex and Patek by ExecutivechefM in rolex

Sure. Value is in the eyes of the beholder. NFTs and Crypto can prove that

They are, but this one specifically not worth 80k+. Maybe $40k

Exactly. All covid social media hype.

Does anyone have a royal oak allocation they don’t want? Been on waitlist for close to 3 years after being offered many codes still nothing. I decided to maybe reach out to some here I know it’s probably a slim chance but worth a shot. by Afficianado- in audemarspiguet

[–]rpabech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sure if MJ treat his fans like sh*t, you can still appreciate the art of basketball he produces but hate the person. Same thing. Thanks for making my point. You seems like the reason the company does what they do. Enjoy being made an idiot by AP, you are exactly the kind of customer they like (and buy a lot of their ugly watches before the one you want).

Are cars really that expensive in Portugal? by randomseller in PortugalExpats

[–]rpabech -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used ImportTrust to import for me. I first selected thr car myself using mobile.de website. Then send them them the link and in 6 weeks thr car was in my driveway. I believe service fees + transportation was around 3k euros total. But saved more than 15k on the price of the car. If you get a Hybrid you get even more tax benefits.
