I decided to lower the number of my watches in collection to make room for a sports watch with a dial color that is NOT black.
My wrist is 17cm so my sweet spot is 39 – 41mm size watch with lug to lug less then 48mm. I want a comfortable watch on brac…
White dial sports watch, but vintage?
I'm trying to find a fun strap monster type watch (a bracelet as original would be great too) from 38mm to 41mm in size (40mm is my sweet spot). White dial (not silver) and it should be older or vintage. I don't want a dress or dressy type of…

Well, it happened. I was very lucky so far with my watches. None broke or needed any service until today.
My oldest in the collection was 18 years old Panerai Luminor Zero. I just got a new strap for it and loved wearing it again but today i felt a sn…
Would you buy it or not?
I fell in love in a certain watch that costs..a lot (for me). I decided to sell some watches to keep my collection down in numbers and then i'll walk into a boutique, get a nice discount, because it's a brand i thought gives discounts and the…

I've sold my last watch that was a clear dress piece. I'm still in the need of a dressy watch from time to time and i kind of want a white dial sporty watch too. So instead of going classic WIS way of buying 2 watches, i'm thinking of bu…

I listed a watch for sale on Ebay (German version, EU. I'm also from EU country) yesterday. Today, i've got a buy/price suggestion for 20 EUR less then my list price from someone that registered on Ebay 2 days ago. It's a weird price sug…

I've sold couple watches until now up to 500$ worth and now i'm selling some in low 4 figures. And it's always the same with buyers.

Classic vintage Rolex Datejust 1601…but bigger?
I've sold 37mm Grand Seiko SBGW231 because i felt the design made it a bit too small on my 6.7 inch wrist.
I really like vintage Rolex Datejust design with fluted bezel and a strap. But at 36mm it's even smaller. Any very simillar designs b…
