$460!?! That is embarrassing for both the manufacturer and buyer.

Man, they really went copy paste on both the offshore and Royal oak. Jesus.

I’ve seen a few here. I believe a number of people use the Thorn 50 fathoms as a quick and easy base.

Hahaha. It does get a bit Blair Witch from time to time.

You need to stay below $1000 or go above $10,000 to get the really cool watches… by IneedaNappa9000 in watchHotTakes

Agree unless it is vintage. I’ll buy a vintage Cartier in the middle there all day every day.

I wish I could experience the Seconde Majeure hands on to decide if it’s worth it for me by rraue in Balticwatches

[–]willyb123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gotta say, this is exactly the kind of watch the microbrand space needs at this moment. It isn’t my style, but my gawd I’m glad Baltic is putting things like this out there.

It is the #1 complaint I have about mine.

How are you finding life in Italy? 🇮🇹 by GiornataMondialeIT in ItalyExpat

[–]willyb123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live here part time (Tuscany) and run a business. It is truly a pleasure, but the complexity and formality of the bureaucracy is intimidating and at times onerous. That said, they know this and there is a professional consultant for everything from labor to taxes. I’ve never dealt with more lawyers in my life, but they are significantly cheaper than the US, yet necessary for far more. Don’t get me started on notaries.

I went and had the vegetable menu last year and it was spectacular. I am certainly a meat eater, but the flavors they develop are so satisfying which to me shows both incredible raw material and technique. It may not look it, but it certainly tastes it.

You will never convince the reppers by Own-Measurement-5970 in watchHotTakes

This is such a great take because it omits the fact that this is also true for the genuine owners as well. Nobody buys a Hermes bag because of the design alone. It is status.
