I'll start this off with a previous post I made to the pinned Ingeniuer thread. Didn't get much feedback there which brings me here…

Santos Only

I went back through the Cartier sub-forum a bit and didn’t see a dedicated thread for the Santos line. Given how popular the model is, and the numerous, short, one-off Santos posts, it seemed useful to create a single, focused thread for all things San…

Ulysse Nardin Event Recap

Last night I attended a Ulysse Nardin event hosted by my local watch group. Prior to the event, I have only checked out their watches briefly at a local AD.

The Marin Vault – anyone familiar?

I'm considering a deal with this seller (https://www.themarinvault.com/) so now I'm asking around as I prepare to commit.

Could Have Been a Contender

Had a birthday lunch near my AD, so I stopped in. Not in the market, and nothing caught my eye from any brand.

They had available 2x 36mm DJs, 36mm two-tone Explorer, 41mm Day-Date (diamonds), 31mm DJ (diamonds). More interesting, the new Land-Dweller…

Vulcain vs Nivada

I'm not in the market to buy anything but, as usual, my mind goes through the motions of possible next purchases.

I've never considered these brands and that's part of the appeal. I have not seen these in person or tried them on but the…

Panerai 00141

This watch has caught my eye and I'm planning to buy one right here on WUS.

Anyone have experience with it?

I thought my first Panerai would be something with a crown guard and likely a Submersible. The 141 is a good size and fairly thin if I …
