Pretty self explanatory. Looking for my 1st Rolex (SD43) and while I’ve done a lot of business with the usual suspects (mostly Jomashop) I am not interested in continually paying the associated sales tax on a $10k plus investment. Who do you recommen…
Continue readingTudor Pelagos LHD: Any difference from inception to current day models?
Good morning gents. I just bought my 1st Tudor, used, from Jomashop. I have purchased from them before and this one checked all the boxes. JS stated it was from 2023, so my question is, have there been any variants to the LHD model either before or …

Curious if anyone else notices the issue I did with this Speedie, assuming what I saw is an issue. Maybe it is, maybe not.
What I pointed out, seller of this watch (who is on a different platform) stated about half the watches on C24 presented the sa…

I have the itch for a new watch and have been considering the current 44mm SMP chronograph. Shown below is my current 42mm 300m. The 44’s LTL is +3mm larger, and I think that may be too big for me. I am about a 6.75-7” wrist. T…

Watch is the Steinhart Vintage Red and has either a ETA 2824-2/SW 200, élaboré movement, I am not sure which.

Good evening folks. I’ve had my Ocean One Vintage Red for about a month. I have no idea if it’s an ETA 2824-2 or the SW 200, élaboré movement. But either way, I am new to Steinhart and am curious how often you wind yours. I havnt been, due to posti…

First Tudor, considering Pelagos FXD vs Ultra and BB Mono
Good Saturday afternoon gentlemen. Topic is pretty self explanatory. Am on the ‘interest’ list at my local AD for a no-date Rolex sub, but in the meantime am considering a Tudor. Am retired military and prefer tool watches. All three of the ones me…
