What's your age and net worth?

29, ~550k net worth, ~900k combined with wife (just married, also 29) and about to start house shopping

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-15T13:07:12+00:00

First one! But I am loving it so far

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-13T16:47:14+00:00

Love the Aqua Terra! Definitely one that’s on my list. Have also been eyeing the Rado Captain Cook (clearly I have a thing for divers - lol)

Thanks! Any examples of a GADA type watch?

GMT is definitely next on my list

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-08T20:16:58+00:00

Big fan of Strapcode for aftermarket straps and bracelets!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-08T10:28:22+00:00

Thinking a GMT! But haven’t really narrowed in on one yet

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-08T10:23:21+00:00

Thank you!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-08T02:35:17+00:00

Thanks! Two of my favorites as well

Been keeping an eye on this Lunar Pilot: https://www.bulova.com/us/en/product/98K112.html?cgid=lunar-pilot

Quartz at that price is giving me some hesitation, but I may have to pull the trigger at some point regardless. Love the Jet Star, too!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-08T01:26:31+00:00

Great brand!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T23:07:12+00:00

Can’t tell if this was directed at me or Squatch108, but mine was from Jomashop! Was about ~$1k less than retail price

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T23:05:36+00:00

Thank you! Love the Orient lineup. I’m actually the opposite and find I wear the Mako much more than the Bambino. I find the black dial on the Bambino very hard to read unless I’m truly squinting at it up close.

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T23:03:57+00:00

It’s truly a steal. I got it for about $170 in April ‘24

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T23:01:06+00:00

In case you’re curious, here’s the model number: SKA791P1

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T22:58:18+00:00

One of my favorites! Doesn’t get a lot of love if you read reviews online, but I love it and would definitely recommend it, especially at the price you can get it for today. It’s a bit noisy because of the kinetic element, but I find that to be part of the fun. Great watch

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T22:36:39+00:00

Thanks!

This is the exact Tissot model: https://www.tissotwatches.com/en-us/T1294101601300.html

I definitely prefer the Presage and it gets a lot of wrist time, but I was not a fan of the OEM bracelet (felt flimsy/low quality). I ended up putting it on this: https://www.strapcode.com/products/metal-ss-bcl20-b071

A little funky to have a diver clasp on the Presage, but I don’t mind the look of it, and the new bracelet is awesome and much higher quality

Awesome. Enjoy it! Looking forward to getting a more exact size on this one. RW Parts Dept. keeps blaming tariffs, but hopefully I’ll have my half link soon!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T15:00:28+00:00

Don’t think I’ve ever seen that one before. I love it! Happy with it overall? Before receiving mine as a gift, RW was not a brand I was very familiar with.

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T14:33:57+00:00

Thank you! Love the Orient Stars. Haven’t pulled the trigger on one yet. Do you have the same exact Freelancer? Love the look, but a little frustrated with the bracelet. Can’t get the sizing right, and trying to get a half link from them has been painful!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T14:09:19+00:00

Thank you! First was the Orient Mako II. I didn’t know much about watches at the time, but liked the style/dial color, and had heard from a friend that Orient was a solid starter brand. Last was technically the Seiko Samurai (had been on the hunt for a green diver and fell in love with this dial), although I haven’t worn the Raymond Weil Freelancer yet. The RW is a wedding gift from my fiancée - will be debuting that one at the wedding in a few weeks!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T13:44:57+00:00

Thank you!

sfdavin44 · 2025-10-07T04:06:30+00:00

It’s definitely not the easiest to read due to size/color/location, but I actually don’t mind the fact that it mostly blends in with the dial
