This is how I bought my first Miele vacuum for what it's worth. Still have it!According to my emails I ordered one of these whilst half asleep at 2am this morning.

That's gonna be tough if you aren't near a physical location. I was able to grab some by just stopping by. Which one are you looking for? The black/grey ones are crazy tough to find.I didn't know we had a watches OT here! Neat. I'll post my (very) modest collection sometime.
I was searching the forum for advice though, and I'm curious if anyone here can give me any: I want to get a Moonswatch for my dad for Christmas, but I know they're ridiculously hard to find right now and the secondary market is bananas. Do I have any chance at all, or should I give up and look for something else? I don't think I'm near a physical Swatch location, unfortunately.

I have a Uranus and a Saturn if you're interested. I could part with one if you really want one of em. Keep an eye out on the Reddit watchexchange, they pop up daily over there.This is what I was afraid to hear, haha. I'm not too picky about the color, which I'm hoping raises my chances somewhat at least.

Are you 100% sure he wants one? Just me, but I was immediately in love with the look of many of them, until I watched a few popular watch channels on YT with their reviews, talking about how they feel so light and like a toy, with a poor strap too, that they're barely worth the asking price let alone the resale price, it put me off.I didn't know we had a watches OT here!

Folks love my jellyfish Swatch (I got the Big Bold version) though I'm having to superglue the band together these days.
According to my emails I ordered one of these whilst half asleep at 2am this morning. No idea if I'll keep it. I'm quite fond of my naff digital Casio watch.
This I'll keep until I can find afford a 60s Seamaster.

Can I interest anyone in a $2400 quartz watch?
I've got a Flighty that's mint if you want. Make me an offer. When I was home I wore my watches allot. But over the years I've gotten into haq watches. Some amazing stuff out there.I'm giving up on automatics. Thanks to generous wfh policy I basically have to set my automatic every time I put it on because it's been too long since the last time I wore it out of the house, and I'm tired of it.
So, Citizen Nighthawk or Seiko Flightmaster?

At its price point, I find the movement lacking, certainly in comparison to the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date which can be purchased for far less. It's certainly a looker, but if you really have your heart set on the Overseas, then go for it. Better to buy what you really want first time round, rather than regretting it and going through the process of offloading a watch you don't want and then buying what you should have in the first place.What's everyone's thoughts on the Vacheron 56? I've been offered it on a bracelet and I want to start a relationship with a boutique so I can get the 4500v down the road but since it's not really an in house movement idk if I want it that much. It's nice looking... but idk. I also like the Patrimony and need a dress watch but at around 20k I might as well just ask for the 7900v since it's still in my budget.
Yeah my heart is set on getting a blue dial overseas in steel (though... the rose gold is something I want to eventually get as well) but the boutique flat out told me it'll be like 3 years and that's if I start a relationship now (idk if that was just sales speak to get me, but at least it's more straightforward and less of a song and dance than Rolex). If I go for the dual time overseas I'd be happy with it and definitely keep it but it's still not what I originally wanted. With the 56 I could start that relationship at a lower price point but idk if I'd actually keep the watch. Either way the hit I take would be less. But it's also using a Cartier movement (?)At its price point, I find the movement lacking, certainly in comparison to the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date which can be purchased for far less.

Yeah, the watch market is pretty messed up right now due to hypebeast culture and other factors.Yeah my heart is set on getting a blue dial overseas in steel (though... the rose gold is something I want to eventually get as well) but the boutique flat out told me it'll be like 3 years and that's if I start a relationship now (idk if that was just sales speak to get me, but at least it's more straightforward and less of a song and dance than Rolex).

*I don't actually think there's anything wrong with Cartier, I love my Santos but I want a Vacheron movement in a Vacheron watch lol
Gah, I hate the watch market lol As someone that just got into this 2 years ago, this shit stinks. Olds keep telling me stories of ancient times when you could walk into Rolex and get what you wanted. lmao fantasy land

Can I interest anyone in a $2400 quartz watch?
Personally, I find the entire thing obnoxious and I prefer not participating under those terms. It's the same thing with cars. I'm very happy to tell a dealer that in either case.Gah, I hate the watch market lol As someone that just got into this 2 years ago, this shit stinks. Olds keep telling me stories of ancient times when you could walk into Rolex and get what you wanted. lmao fantasy land
Haven't had a watch in over a year. Looking for one under a grand. I really like Longines history, and even though their past is past, I like their heritage conquest. Been a fan of design, but the gold indices I don't like. I prefer silver. Vintage I'm looking at a king/grand seiko. Diver Christopher Ward Trident Pro 300. I have a love/hate relationship with the hands. Also I've heard the clasp is quite long and may be problem with my 6inch wrists. Looking for under 40mm. I keep imagining myself with a GADA, but I really I go into office 3 days a week, and don't really do anything outdoors. Maybe beach/pool here and there during spring/summer, so I'm kinda leaning towards the Longines or vintage KS/GS.

I love the nighthawk. Got my first one like 15 years ago now and it still works perfectly.I'm giving up on automatics. Thanks to generous wfh policy I basically have to set my automatic every time I put it on because it's been too long since the last time I wore it out of the house, and I'm tired of it.
So, Citizen Nighthawk or Seiko Flightmaster?
That's basically a canvas Bonklip. Wonder how it would look on steel.Are there any watch straps similar to the apple watch alpine loop?
Lol Bonk lipThat's basically a canvas Bonklip. Wonder how it would look on steel.
Out of the three, and considering your circumstances, the Aqua Terra seems the best option.So I've narrowed down my (almost) every day watch. One is first gen aqua terra 39mm black quartz. The other is a vintage 5722 Grand Seiko. I have a desk job so not worried about physical activities with vintage.
I am I worried about a splash or even a drop, even moisture from humidity causing the dial to fog up. I live in Florida too. Oh it rains a lot here, so having to hide the watch if I'm stuck outside would be kinda annoying.
What say you guys for those who may have a vintage watch as a daily wearer?
I'd really like a Monta Triumph but I've read those with small wrists the clasp is really long and I like brackets
I just got a jdm gs in perfect condition for under $1k and I can't believe it. And only 8 years old.Yeah I think AT. Then tax refund I'll go bargain hunting for a vintage GS…or a vintage Omega. :D

This one will do- until if I ever make it to a fortunate enough position to buy a Breitling Aerospace (used)
Discontinued watch, sad times (too late, didn't know this existed and bought the Casio), there aren't enough ana-digi watches in the world and of course Certina discontinued one of their more innovative watches, people seem to buy Swiss for mechanical watches most of the time so they don't innovate with quartz and stick to the basics and all the innovation is done by Citizen, Casio, etc from what I notice, speaking as someone who likes mechanical watches but also has an obsession with multi-function quartzI've got the steel version of this and it also fits the bill. Big Breitling vibes and much nicer finishing than the Casio. It's on Joma for under $300 too.
