Garmin D2 Pilot Watch
My Garmin collection (left to right, front to back): Edge 500, Edge 510, FR910XT, Edge 800, Swim, and FR70I am a very active person. In particular, I train about 10+ hours a week (mainly swimming, cycling, and running) as I am part of a local amateur (but serious) triathlon team: PacWest Athletics. So as such, I have owned various sports watches, and in particular Garmin GPS sports watches. Pretty much every Garmin sports model since 2007-except for the Approach S models which are superb golf-specific watches. Currently, I have three of their watch models plus three more Garmin Edge devices dedicated for cycling.So why do I start with this inventory of my Garmin watches and devices for this post. Simply to say that, while not perfect, I think Garmin understands how to make watches suited for specific activities-I call them Activity-focused smartwatches.

Piaget Dragon Watches

AD Behavior
I recently purchased a BLNR from a trusted seller that I learned about through this forum and my wife took it in to an AD to get it appraised for insurance as I was working. I already swapped the band to a rubber b strap in order to save the original strap for one day when I pass it on to my son (it's a 2017 reference-his birth year) and because it's easier to sanitize in a hospital setting. When my wife went to hand over the watch for inspection the AD staff essentially scolded her for presenting them with a watch that had a non-Rolex band and balked about altering a Rolex watch. I mean, how DARE I change my watch strap?! He also scoffed at the fact that I did it myself--spring bars are complicated things for some I guess... They went on to give her a bunch more attitude and unsolicited advice about buying outside of local ADs (despite their having long waiting lists and no stock) and essentially called her a tax cheat for buying a watch outside of the country (I paid all applic
