[question] Where to find luxury watch clients/sell luxury watches? in c/watches@style.land

[–] scryptbreaker@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

How many watches is it? 5 30k watches or one 30k watch and a bunch of 2-10k watches? If it’s the latter your best is probably going to be individual listings on sites like Chrono24 or /r/WatchExchange until someone takes the purchase; if it’s the first one I might look into high end auction houses and just take the small loss unless you want to be waiting forever.

[Question] Update: What Do you guys Think about the new Seiko Prospex Alpinist GMT Limited Edition me out in c/watches@style.land

[–] scryptbreaker@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I think orange is usually used on these white dial GMT colorways to help make certain things pop. It would have done well here.

Take it over to /r/watchexchange and post it with a timestamp, an album of better photos and a video of it or something.

You’re asking for an offer on a potentially 5-figure item based on one edited wrist shot on an account with almost no karma.

Gonna get on FanDuel and fantasy draft the midday thanksgiving family football game this year. My cousin been having a really steady holiday performance year over year. Gramps is questionable though.

Nah man that G-Shock isn’t trying to be a RO, way different vibes. Especially with the digital screen. I think it brings a much different aesthetic in to round out OP’s kit.

My guy this is literally a stock product photo. How is anyone here supposed to tell you if the one you actually have is a rep or not?

I love these and the Naos.

Sternglas is highly underrated

[Discussion] Looking for nice quartz pieces I probably haven’t heard of / seen before. What’s your favorite? (alien.top)

Gonna get tar&feathered by some enthusiasts (in good sport) for this one here but here goes:

I’m consolidating my watch collection down and have sold off the majority of my hand wound or automatic watches, and am selling the remaining bit in the next few months.

This comes from

Moving into a city apartment with my S.O. soon and wanting to keep the bedroom watch space to a 2-people sharing a room size

And (mainly)

Being unreasonably bothered by the amount of work it takes to keep them all wound and running on time. Yes, I’ve had auto winders, but that doesn’t work for the true mechanicals, and tbh I’ve grown to like the grab and go reliability of quartz’s change a battery every other year kind of maintenance. Go ahead and hate away, this is absolutely a minor thing, but it’s enough to annoy me lol. I work from home now and I’ve found that means I don’t switch pieces enough to keep the movements ticking on a large collection.

So: with money not really being a factor (let’s say under 10k, I mean at the end of the day it is a quartz movement, but I think this range should cover 99.9%, recommend me some cool pieces to build out a small 3-4 watch collection! Can’t be too cheap either, I don’t judge on price, only aesthetics + reliability!

[Seiko] The perfect chronograph doesn’t exis— (alien.top)

This is my all-time favorite chronograph!

It’s a Seiko SNDF87P1 Panda that I’ve had for a number of years and it’s the only watch out of a truly silly number of them (besides a Casio World Timer that I also really love) that I haven’t bought and resold for something else.

I recently put it on the leather strap that’s in the picture and I think it compliments it perfectly and really takes it over the top as an all-in-one, any occasion chrono. It used to be on a blue / orange / white NATO which IMO also looks good on it, but I think this strap was the missing piece for me to move to only one chronograph dial in the collection.

[SOTC] Got 10, which one should go? in c/watches@style.land

Normally agree with this on openly displayed movement watches but the Accutrons always get a pass in my book because of the history. I just find them really interesting

[Casio] No Rolex + Merc combo, but my Casio matches my car! (alien.top)

The more I wear this Casio World Timer the more it grows on me. I love Casio’s digital watches and even though this one is a little less badass than a calculator one it still has such personality IMO.

This one’s exaxt model is the AE1200WH-1A. It’s got a watch (obviously), 5 individual alarms, a stopwatch, a countdown timer, a world time mode with 31 time zones and 100m water resistance. You can get it on Amazon for like $30 a lot of the time and I highly recommend you do.

[Identify] My great uncle’s barber passed down this poorly-done sketch of a watch to me, is it legit? (alien.top)

Hey guys, new account here to ask the question, I ~~got a high-priced escort to distract him and took it while he was out~~ was given this watch by my friend, is it legit? He makes about 30k a year plus tips but I’ve seen this model go north of 1.2 milli online, did I strike gold?

I’m going to tell you all I’m just curious about the make and model but we all know as soon as you tell me what it is this suckers going to the pawn shop down the road and I’m gonna ask for whatever the highest priced one on eBay is currently going for, screw sentimental BS and all that lol.
