what SIHH means to me practically
that my instagram feed will be flooded with fugly watches (some so fugly i need to look several times to realize they're watches) and an occasional gem for a week, maybe two.
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
It reminds me that many watches are truly luxury items and I can't afford a lot of luxury.
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
if what rolls through my instagram feed is the definition of luxury, i'm fine being a step below that. like i said, a handful of interesting and nice things and a gigantic wad of "wtf is that?"
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
I said it to Art last year, but it just makes me appreciate my collection more every year.
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
Yep - I feel the same way. Nothing has been released in recent years that made me want to flip something to get it.
Last year all I picked up was some frugals - Samurai, SeaWolf, and Squadron (Helson). I still have a BLNR and Jubilee bracelet on order (more than a year now) but I'm told early spring delivery.
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
I was just watching a vid of the new garish AP Royal Oak Divers... honestly the fakers will be rubbing their hands together as the blue one already looked like a really bad fake. If I’d not know who was doing the vid and where they were I’d honestly have thought they were knock-off’s!

Re: what SIHH means to me practically
So far, only interested in this...
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
Is it taking so long because of the bracelet addition or is that the standard BLNR waitlist at your AD? Crazy that they are still so in demand.

Mainly my AD. He’s been starved of SS models while Rolex was pressuring him to do boutique like upgrades to his store. He tried explaining that he’s in a historic district and some of the things they were asking just could’nt be done. That’s resolved and he’s been promised they will fill his backorders by the end of April. I’ve stuck it out because he’s offered me a great deal.
Re: what SIHH means to me practically
Also crazy is the control they have over their AD's. It's going to be worth the wait for sure, though.
