My Patek Dilemma
I was about to pull the trigger on a Vacheron Overseas.. I'd been also looking at a Deep Sea Rolex.. I love both watches. I love both brands.. to call them brands is a bit underwhelming, for what they are, to me. I have concluded I should just get a Patek Aquanaut or Nautilus and be done with the searching. I have also looked at my collection.. Jaeger REverso, Rolex Explorer 1, Rolex SubC 2-tone, PAnerai GMT, Vacheron Historique.. I love and adore each piece for what it is, what it represents, but I wish I'd not have bought the Panerai, at times, and wish maybe I'd have foregone other pieces.. My dilemma has been every year or 3.. I buy a nice watch.. what I Should have been doing was buying 1 patek over a 5-year period.. So what I Am going to do is starting saving monthly funds.. diverting into an account, not kidding. I am going to amass enough for a used Patek sports watch.. over time.. it might take 5 years, but I will do it. I welcome thoughts about how you all found the disciplin
Radiomir 1940 models in 45mm w/out "Auto" on dial?
I got a chance to try on a range of Panerai models a few days ago. I loved the size and feel of the 45mm Radiomir 1940 case-- perfect fit for me. The solid lugs were a way better choice for me than the wire lugs on the other Radiomir collection, and the slim case (height-wise) is really lovely. The Automatic text on the dial just kills a lot of the potential models for me-- it throws off the balance, the mismatched font drives me nuts, etc. Just a no-go. Are there discontinued models of the Radiomir 1940 I should be looking around for that are in 45mm but with a manual wind movement or that don't have Automatic on the dial? I'm okay with the Black Seal dial text as that at least matches font-wise. Any idea if there are upcoming models later this year/early next that may fit my requirements? I've looked and can't find much. Many thanks!
Pam 785 set
Hi All,Not sure what's going on but the price of these sets seem to be dropping. I own the set and was going to keep the Daylight and maybe try and sell the Black Seal to recoop some of the money paid for the set. The blacky is the more popular of the 2, which is great for me, as I wanted a Panerai with a white face.But I see a few sets out there, and they don't seem to be selling. Do you all think the modern Panerai's are getting soft in the marketplace.thanks for reading
Rolex Sports Watch - Entry Level
I've been reading comments on entry level watch for Rolex and saw some common comments and responses. But to make it more specific, I would like to ask what is the entry level sports Rolex. Also, in light of difficulties of sourcing a sport watches nowadays, is that entry level Rolex sport watch hard to get? Any discount? Is it a hated watch for some? Thanks in advance.
