Poast your watch

[4North1Side2]

yo that chronoshark site, only shows 1 watch a day

It's a one watch deal of the day website like the most of them.

I have many but this is my fave...

Oakley Time Tank Titanium

Nice, never heard of the brand.... I'm trying to get into more obscure brands next year myself.

Watch of the Day website with photo previews. Updated everyday. I ordered from Chronoshark, Invicta shark, and 1saleaday.com quite a few times.

Great site, thanks!

I have a better one. I never ordered from the guys but I've read many reviews and testimonials that these guys ship reliable replica's that are nearly identicals to their genuine counterparts.

I would love to have the black rolex submariner replica but my principles won't let me for now. Never say never tho...

A Nardin Freak is way too complicated for anyone to try to bother knocking off.

A friend of mine bought one at an estate sale for half of what it would have been retail. I can't seem to serparate him from it.

POAST....

 

[Heist]

Blurry as shit because I have no macro setting on my cameraphone, but it's a Ulysse Nardin Big Date GMT w/the Alligator Strap since I'm not a big fan of Metal Bracelets. I'd take a rubber bracelet before I would a metal.

And one day, god willing, I'm going to add a Nardin Freak Black Out to the collection:

 

[Heist]

ACT LIKE YOU KNOW!!

Oh shit! I had one of these as a kid!!! Mine was black. Damn, you just bought back some memories.

 

[beg4mercy]

wtf is that?

 

[Heist]

wtf is that?

I think it's that bullshit Microsoft Net Watch w/telephone that went NOWHERE because it was useless, god awful expensive, and the battery life was zilch.

Breitlings are nice, but aren't worth the money in my opinion. Much like Rolex lately - they're trading more on brand name than craftsmenship.

Ask any watch person and they'll tell you the Rolex's and Breitlings of today don't hold a candle to their watches of the past. They started outsourcing bezels and sometimes most of the assembly to Asia.

sounds just like everything else that is made...

Not everything. Most of your premium watches would never dare do that. They maybe source some of the mass components from Asia - springs, crown posts, straps - but never do most of the parts manufacturing and assembly there.
But Rolex and Breitling have been slipping.

Iono about that one...What's the difference between now and then?

so since rolex and breitling are slipping what are the premium brands of watches out now?

 

[catalyst]

here's one of many. Got this one for Christmas. I'm definitely a watch guy.

Iono about that one...What's the difference between now and then?

The level of hand craftsmanship and detail.

Most of the stuff now is laser cut and stamped by machines (to a higher standard that a mass market watch) and machine finished - then hand assembled, final polished.

Now although it makes for a more "finely crafted" and machined with higher tolerances to make a marginally more accurate watch -- what makes a watch valuable is the amount of human labor that went into its creation.

The fact that it has minor hand craftsmenship imperfections actually ADDS value because no one is spending the money on near end-to-end hand labor anymore.

It's the difference between a Bentley with hand beaten metal panels and a hand carved wood interior and a Lexus where the car 85% is done by machine.

I don't know much about Rolex's but the craftsmenship seems to be the last thing that is ever mentioned out of many owners mouths I come across. All I hear about is how they retain their value which is true.
