Watches & Wonders 2024

I try to be open minded, but these look so bad to me. Soulless.

Re: Watches & Wonders 2024

My favorite release so far https://static.patek.com/images/articles/gallery/2200/5980_60G_001_1.jpg But I love what they've done with the Duometre line as well! https://img.jaeger-lecoultre.com/product-light-box-1/004a7aad548db83f3824d9f0849785913ea2931d.jpg https://img.jaeger-lecoultre.com/product-...

Re: Watches & Wonders 2024

I see Tudor is offering Black Bay 58 GMT in 39mm. I sure this will be the hot Tudor for 2024. https://www.tudorwatch.com/en/watches/black-bay-58/m7939g1a0nru-0001 This new Tudor Black Bay 41 would be my choice (monochrome) https://www.tudorwatch.com/en/watches/black-bay/m7941a1a0nu-0003 I don't min...

Re: WRUW - Monday 3/25/24

Been back on the “real watch” train for a few days now. Maybe it’s time for a comeback? Apple Watch collecting dust?

Traveling with the Duometre today.

Re: Squale, really ? [emoji2357]

Very surprised at the clasp choice… basically says you can remove links to size 🫤. which is basically what all butterfly clasps on bracelets are. and for a short time a couple of years ago, i was in between link sizes on both my 556i and my aqua terra, so i didn't wear either for nearly a year til ...

I’ve always thought this watch looked best on a strap, so the lack of a bracelet isn’t a big deal to me.

This price means owning one is just one winning lottery ticket away for me.
But the x71 bracelet is sublime
Except it has no microadjustment, and the one for the 45mm is heaaaavvvy.

BP FF retail has always been this stupid high. We just never remember that until they announce a new model.

Got my eye on the brand. I like the unique aesthetic, and they’re pushing the limits too. I think they had a recent worldtimer that looked great.

Re: Any curious coffee drinkers out there?

I'll try it if you have any left, but also can wait for the next batch.

I've been playing with pour over drippers and grinder combos lately. Way better to get different flavors than espresso for me.
