PSA PayPal phishing scam

They get more and more sophisticated. If I’m in the mood and have the time, I genuinely enjoy messing with the scammers on the phone sometimes. The other week I got a call from Bank of America asking to confirm Zelle transactions. I don’t have a BofA account. Idiots.

Re: Rolex Rehaut

Later 14060M’s had an engraved rehaut and lug holes. Looks like this. Random serial 14060M (2013) :fro: https://i.imgur.com/J5jDiF7.jpg If I could go back in time, I probably would have looked for one of those while they were still in the case instead of getting a 114060 (at a 20% discount lol).

Re: New Aquastar Benthos Available.

So much for sticking to my 2023 watch plan. :raised: Just a heads-up; PayPal is not an option for purchase. I checked with Aquastar, they don't use PayPal for pre-orders. Thanks for the nudge, Jay; this looks great. :thumbsup: Weird, I literally just checked out with PP. https://uploads.tapatalk-cd...

Re: Does the 36mm Exp make my wrist look fat?

I'm waiting on the 40. Got a call today from the AD but he just wanted to tell me the Pelagos 39 was back in stock as I showed a little interest in. I wonder what the wait time would be for the 40mm 227240? He gave me the run around that they're hens teeth, multiple people in front of me which i'm ...

Re: Does the 36mm Exp make my wrist look fat?

Re: Titanium Resco

A couple questions for anyone who might know: 1. Does Resco still offer the UDT in steel? 2. Do they sell a bracelet that is compatible (same finish) with the Ti UDT? I’d be shocked if they didn’t have some steel cases still available. Reach out to Nicole at info@rescoinstruments.com and she’ll tak...

Re: Seiko’s new Marine Masters

Maybe I’m not a Seiko purist like some you guys but I dig the black dial a lot. How much are they? I think it's in the mid $3Ks. Plus it's 39.5mm, isn't that smaller than you'd wear? isn’t that a lot of dough for a 6L series machine? even with the bad ‘Marinemaster’ plastered across [emoji23] I don...
