The Omega is 17 years old and the Rolex is 12. They are daily wear watches. I am ready to retire them to special dress only watches. I just repaired the Omega to the tune of $450 which is less than the cost of my new Apple Watch with tax! It fact, my double watch winder is over twice the cost of the Apple Watch.
Youthful foolishness!

As a man, I'm not sure why I noticed this but is painting your cuticle along with the nail really a thing!? It looks... Strange...
I've wanted one of these for a long time. They're one of the few watch designs I like. How do you like it?
This is the wrong thread for me to post this, but I want that face on my Apple Watch!Ta da
That's part of the attraction of really nice watches for me. You could have $50,000 worth of gorgeous precision engineering on your wrist (I wish!) and nobody would know. It's perfectly safe to wear it every day, everywhere and not have to worry about being mugged.
OTOH, wear a gold Edition and EVERYBODY will know exactly how much it's worth - even those you'd rather didn't.
In terms of design they're beautiful. Especially now that they are swiss made, the finish is probably even better than my 203 RG. I love the rose gold finish with the gray face. The leather band and clasp that comes with feels classy though it's a bit thick.
However, the price and the quartz piece makes it a hard purchase. If it wasn't for the design I would have never purchased it.
LOL Nice fake Rolex bro.
Next time don't pick such an easy one to tell. Problem 1 is that the sub dials are the wrong color for this version. 2nd is that the 3oclock minute counter is not reset properly when the chrono has been reset to the 12 oclock position. 3rdly the rolex crown is horrible as it is the wrong shape.
At least let everyone know it's a fake, especially if it looks this bad.

Do any of you plan to sell off your moderately expensive watches to offset the cost of your WATCH? If so, how are you doing it or planning to do it?
I've got a Movado Eliro that I was thinking of getting rid of in order to jump from the Sport to the Stainless Steel model.

Pebble Steel with Truffol Strap
Comes with a nice butterfly clasp like the SS Link Bracelet.
Replacing with 42mm SS w/ White Sport Band
Couldn't justify $1,100 + Tax for the Space a black I really want.

I just died with laughter, basically I have acrylics but I'm growing them out to not have them anymore so its a bit weird looking
Tag kirium F1 that my GF bought me back in 2001 to replace the kirium that was perfectly fine and I sold.. Big regret! Will never sell another watch. The Apple Watch 42mm Space Grey SS Link will displace this and the Rolex Skydweller my dad got me for my birthday last year that I hardly ever wear
