A little more money can get you a reverso

I was going to say "nice budget Reverso", but assuming the euro price converts to the USD price, that's a $5500 dollar watch plus tax. I'd buy a minut used Reverso for less.

Are handjobs involved?!?

Not the kind you're going to enjoy

Can you see me now?

I could't see it before, but I can now. That's a very pretty clock.

The black one is pretty. 40mm with a 44mm lug-to-lug is weird proportions.

I will say, the black chrono looks great, as well as the new GMT models from the last couple of years. Was really close on getting this one before getting the Black Bay Pro: https://hodinkee.imgix.net/uploads/images/ee58c8c4-d652-49fe-a7ef-ab80ecb9d44e/L3.812.4.93.6_PUB.jpg?ixlib=rails-1.1.0&fm=jpg...

Welcome sign.

The blue chrono looks nice. The three hand looks like just another generic mid-lux watch. Not bad, but I’m not sure why you pick it over anything else.

You have the coolest hobbies. Here's my favorite spinner:

OceanGate's former finance director said she quit when Stockton Rush asked her to be the Titanic submersible's chief pilot after firing the original one for raising safety issues

Smart lady.

It’s clear that some of our resident Dickheadz have been drinking too much today.

I've been working out a lot with kettleballs. It has done wonders for my mood. Check out my gains:

It's not anywhere near as bad is this https://hodinkee-shopify.imgix.net/s/files/1/0146/0732/products/Rolex-Yacht-Ma...

Someone posted a more real life picture of the three-hand redbull Tudor. The branding is SUPER subtle in real life. The letters blend in to the tick marks on the rest of the rings.

I’m not sure the branding would be a deal breaker for me.

Love seeing non screw down pushers Does having non-screw down pushers mean these pushers are able to be used underwater, or does having non-screw down pushers mean this watch is only water resistant to 200m until you accidentally hit a pusher while underwater? The answer to this question determines...

Ughh rookie mistake posting it in the sales forum. Sign of things to come? Someone help a brotha out and move it to main please. Thanks. Just predicting the wave of everyone selling these after owning them for a month and realizing that having "red bull" on your watch sucks. https://uploads.tapatal...

Try stopping sending dick pics and see if that helps. It worked for me.

I like the fact they made a legible chrono, I find most chronos terrible in that regard. Otherwise, meh.

Only legible outside the hours of 8-10AM/PM, so roughly 25% of the day!

I can't even see my wrist with all the smoke around here. I woke up today kinda feeling like shit with a weird vague headache, looked outside, and the rusty orange looking sunlight is back. I guess the smoke wasn't a one-off thing. The AQI is 185 in Ithaca today. https://www.airnow.gov/aqi/aqi-basi...

I was going to say "less ugly than I thought they would be" until I saw the branding around the dial. Another decent watch ruined with some ham fisted BS. And I really hate the snowflake hands on the chrono. I get that Tudor once sold some old watches with a snow flake hand, but I"m not sure why tha...

Looks less good than I expected. Very grey scale.

I'd rock it! Or at least buy it and look at it and eventually trade it for a Rolex.

I love the honesty.
