xddarkx Posted October 21, 2024 Share Posted October 21, 2024 (edited) I've always been drawn to solid gold cases; they just have this classic appeal. A few years back, I bought a vintage piece with a sapphire crystal face, and it made a huge difference in how it looked. The clarity is unreal! I’ve been eyeing a Patek Philippe Aquanaut replica lately, and honestly, they look incredible for the price. They really capture that luxurious vibe without breaking the bank. Sometimes, it feels nice to have a watch that looks and feels high-end without stressing over it. Plus, I love wearing something unique that sparks conversations.

willland Posted October 26, 2024 Share Posted October 26, 2024 Good timing in reviving this thread. I treated myself again. This time I did not "have" to sell any audio gear. Longines Legend Diver 36 Bill 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parlophone1 Posted October 31, 2024 Share Posted October 31, 2024 Not realy, but as said above, just to keep the thread alive. You are of course right, and I won't cause confusion here no more 😇. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parlophone1 Posted November 2, 2024 Share Posted November 2, 2024 Yes, I also had in mind broader definition of horology when mentioning widely popular timepieces. But since Schu started this thread, and I see he has more streamlined view of the matter in mind, giving priority more towards the art and sophistication of making watches, I totally respect that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted December 8, 2024 Share Posted December 8, 2024 OK some watches that were handed down to me This Tissot was given to me by a client many years ago - it’s wind up and still works These Omegas were given to me by my father in law that passed away about 10 years ago Both need to be repaired - But need to check if the repair costs more than the watch? Or just keep them for memory This was given to my wife - it’s a Swiss Made Boma watch (not working) but looks cool with a solid spring bracelet band 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
