Home. I love it.

Love my PAM00111, i have probably spent close to 50% of the cost of the watch on straps.    

Citizen's attempt to make a Grand Seiko rival. 

The case is  beautifully retro.  The hands and dials are clearly GS.  The textured dial invokes what Lange might do but taken to extremes. 

I'm not in love with the bracelet though.  Enough to not want to buy it new (its GS-priced) but I'll take a stab at a used one if I run by them.

Picked up a mission to mercury moonswatch

My wife won this watch in a sales contest at her job.

If anyone has any interest it is brand new in box with all papers.  I would sell it for around $2k or make an offer.  

Back in the game for real now - my first nice watch was a Sinn 857. Sold it along with all of my watch collection over the years. Figured the 857 was a good place to start my collection back up. Limited edition version for Lufthansa 777 cargo pilots and a few dealers (777 pieces):

Thoughts on it so far?  Was considering picking one up for an everyday watch.

I’m liking it so far. Get another strap as the one that comes with it is terrible.

Deets?

Dude in Canada said he wired me cash for a Rolex and he was super paranoid that I wouldn't ship him the watch. He made a big stink about shipping as soon as he showed me receipt of the wire so I caved and shipped it before the money showed up. As expected, cash never showed up. I'm an idiot. I didn't even tell anyone about it I was so embarrassed and just liquidated my watch collection to wash the feeling away.

Oddly enough, years later the guy reached out and said he wanted to make up for all his past deeds and ended up wiring me the money.

Sounds like a 12 stepper making amends. Good for him!

You think? My daughter got me a Mission to Earth (at the Swatch store in the Louvre mall of all places) and I honestly don’t hate it. It’s well paired with the watch.

Surprising good ending to that story. 
 

Did you charge him accrued interest?

He offered to wire a bit extra. I said him making good and changing for the better was enough for me. I turned soft since having kids.

I was joking but that is a legitimate feel-good story for both of you

I am.  I am sure it is about as ugly as a shit from a baby that ate too much sugar.  

FYI, if anyone is looking for an affordable diver with a Sinn-like aesthetic, definitely check out Vero. $885 on the bracelet and a very good all around dive watch. Unbelievable 10 year warranty on ANY damage.

5th anniversary coming up in January and wife wants to buy me a watch.

debating between the omega speedy pro (moonwatch) or the iwc portugieser chrono with the blue dial.

i already have a sinn 104 (black dial), sinn 356 (copper), and nomos tangomat (white).

thoughts? leaning towards the iwc port since that's been one I've wanted forever. any recs on where to pick up one? is there even much of a price difference between the boutiques in austin/dallas/houston (I'm in Austin)?
well, have had the portugieser chrono and love it

but now also itching for a speedy. is the 3861 speedy moonwatch still worth it for ~7k? is it crazy to have two different chronographs?

I have tried to ignore this itch for awhile and it didn’t go away so finally had to scratch it.  39CFAC84-142D-4E33-A6C7-AA28004A10CE.thumb.jpeg.a9ffc312047f2c83dd502f4682416dce.jpeg

That's the one i want. But i refuse to pay secondary prices so I'll probably never get one.

You could always let an AD sleep with your wife.  Pics needed though. :)  Seriously, it's a little ridiculous but it is what it is.  Could say the same thing about a lot of things these days.

Enjoy it!  I just have a mental block on paying secondary for just about anything.  Bourbon, watches, huge markups on cars, etc.  I just won't do it.  Same reason I'll never have a Porsche GT3.

Finally got my hands on a Seamaster Spectre LE. It arrived today on international Bond Day (had no idea lol). 
 

Selling my other Seamaster 300 in photos. I've owned it about 5 years now. Babied it in my rotation.  I would normally sell it before a new buy, but the "too good of a deal sale" on the Spectre popped up and had to pull the trigger.

if anyone's looking for moonswatches i have a few extras i picked up in SF last week.  i have mission to earth, the sun, venus, and uranus.  $350 each, i can meet you in austin or i can ship them to you if you pay shipping.  i think it's under $10 shipped with insurance although not positive.
