I just recently discovered the Doxa Sub 300 and find it extremely cool -but the similarities between 300 and 300T and the many colors makes it hard to decide.

in the 300 vs 300T decision, which one would be considered more true to original? Which version is more valued by collectors?

The orange professional is the most iconic, but that Color unfortunately isn’t for me. I like Caribbean the most, is there otherwise a „tier list“ of colors?

I‘m considering the Sub 300, about to decide in the colour. I wonder which colours are particularly popular?

… for a hefty price tag - and now I’m obsessed with the Citizen Promaster NY0040. Can’t wait for my Amazon shipment to arrive. It looks so cool, is a certified dive watch and even got some history.

My wife can’t understand me.

Im looking into buying a Rolex DJ 41 and since ADs in my area are not really an option I consider chrono24 as well. I’m still figuring out the associated risk when using that platform and wiring around 10k to potentially a private seller. Iwould only buy from within the EU to avoid additional import taxes. I want to go for buyer protection and extra C24 certification.

The search function lets me assume it should be a rather safe affair?

While I had no interest in Rolex at the time at some point I started appreciating them quite a bit. While I would love myself a steel Daytona I‘m not gonna step into this market segment. Almost decided to stick with my Omega as I…
