The Timepiece Thread vol: READ THE 1st POST!!!

establish a connection with the same person every time you visit, in my experience the sals associates do not like sharing clients and usually if you move to the next one, its like starting at the back of the line again

and talking about watches helps, just make it sound like you're just a fan and not some resellers who knows whats gon resell well


as for gifts, i got my sales associate some leather straps and thats mostly because she had a panthere and didnt know where to get 15mm straps while i got some from amazon that was like $12 each for my americaine that didnt work out and they happen to be 15mm too so i just gave it to her instead of returning it, plus she is young and pretty so it didnt hurt to be a little flirty :lol:

and to be honest, if it was a dude i would have just returned them to amazon

she has gotten a moonswatch from one of her clients though, now thats a bit much
Ideal situation could be to legit try and date her if she’s good looking. If you don’t have a large history there, then might as well try. No real loss…sounds like you do have history though. Still though, it’d be win win
 
ive really considered it but i do have a purchase history and if things dont work out, i got to start all over

maybe after i get my daytona :lol:
 
Tried on a Batman and a sea dweller yesterday. Both fit surprisingly better than I thought. Always figured they would wear big but they don’t. The dweller is a thick boy though.
 
gmt master II wears great and im just considring the dark knight/bruce wayne to pair it with the batman :lol:

The 40 gmts and subs are perfect fit for me

But now with the possibility of a blueberry coming along, not realistic considering the Bruce Wayne or Barbara Gordon

Trying get a Pepsi.. and then a rootbeer.. blueberry moves to 2nd on the list if that ever actually comes along, and just because they might actually cut the Pepsi at some point

Also don’t have much interest in a coke since I have a batgirl and sprite (and hopefully a Pepsi eventually)

I don’t have any particular desire for a Rolex, but I think if I ever did get one I’d love for them to bring back the Coke. I prefer the red to the Sprite/Batman/Bruce Wayne.

That said, I might just have to do this new Tudor 58 GMT at some point.

But man this Mark XX has me more than content and not even interested in pursuing anything else for a while. Really is an incredible daily option.
 
i prefer the blacka nd red combo too and ive been lusting over it for the longest, wish i got an older reference before the price boom especially since if probably not be happy with the burgundy hue they’ll use with the ceramic bezel

i also drink coke more than pepsi so :lol:

i wish the tudor coke gmt has no gilt, that really killed it for me but now that a bb58 gmt is out there, it means more colors gon’ come out in the future so i am looking forward to that
 
Do you guys find the colored bezels to be hard to wear with your daily outfits? I’m not a matching person per se but if I had a Pepsi or Batman, I’d feel like I could only wear it when I had neutral colors on so it acted as an accent. Thats partially why I want a black or slate dj36

Hype for the coke would be so ridiculous that unless you got major plug or $$$ we aren’t getting one

Hard enough time getting a Pepsi for retail and I’m def not paying resell

Oh well

I have neither right now :lol:

Maybe if they bring it back in a year or two and leave it in the catalog for at least a decade, the hype will subside.

But it’s just a super clean watch, hard not to hype or covet it.


The other Rolex I’d love to see is some kind of update to the Air King.
 
I love the pop of green and yellow in the current air king dial but the more I look at it, the more I dislike the minutes. Wish they kept it like the explorer
 
its the minutes markers that makes the air-king more attainable, its a love or hate relationship, no in betweens

for a while there, the explorer, op and air-king all looks similar especially in 34mm-36mm sizes so they had to really separate each from another


and speaking of update, i think many were also hoping for a new milgauss too but surpringly, rolex introduced ONE new stainless steel model this year

but there is word that next year is gon' be crazier for most brands, kind of glad i didnt end up going this year... hopefully in 2025
 
i tried to go to w&w this year but i planned a bit late to an extent where it might have been too expensive unless i spend an extra week in geneva which would have been difficult

but another factor was i didnt have enough info on how things go for the public but jennie made a great vid on yt on how it is for the non-media and probably the most helpful for planning my trip next year
