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

I have a tag formula one that I use for everyday wear, but I wanted something more formal. The max bill is really classy and I like it, but I feel like the speedmaster would be wearable and also dressy. 

The junghans also has a steel band that makes it a little less formal and suitable for everyday wear....I really love both

Yo why all the hate for mens MK watches?

My girl is a manager at mk so i got a few watches therefor cheap. Not much of a selection but for the price i get, they are coo. I know they arent 'timepeices' but twy arent ugly and they are affordable.

If your happy with them that's all that matters, but don't expect anybody to be impressed. I look at those sh*ts the same way as Invicta

If you like the watch, why would it matter what guys on a message board think about your watch. Just don't expect most watch enthusiasts to give you props for your choice. But then again, the majority of people IRL do not pay attention to whats on anyone's wrist.

Then why wear a watch at all?

How you guys feel about Tutima? I always thought the Grand Flieger looked cool. Has a unique band.

My Breitling Super Ocean Steelfish. Had it for about 3 years now...love the way it looks, but thinking about moving on to something else soon.

Most of those rappers know they're buying fakes. The truth is, they just don't make as much money as they'd like you to believe. I think I read somewhere a while back Migos was getting like 20k a show. Break that up 3 ways, and then see how much they spend on their lifestyle, you'll see they don't have much left over to be buying authentic Day Date II's etc.

$40k a show. 2-3 shows a week. $15k/day revenue from streams. I don't care if the group is 3 people or 10 - Migos are the definition of "gettin' it"

Like I said, I read an article a while ago I think it was around the time Versace starting gaining buzz.

Thanks to rfx45 , @1stWitIt and illphillip for the responses...thanks for giving me a bit more insight to "grey market" dealings. This definitely won't be my last for the lower end purchases.


I decided to not pull the trigger on the Frédérique Constant....and decided on a Raymond Weil Phase de Lune instead. Jomashop had the right price for me, and I liked the date & moon phase complication.

It's my first automatic so I didn't shoot the lights out, but I'm already looking at another piece for early next year .

I'm going to most likely change the strap to a dark chocolate brown leather.

Y4BBZY Monaco looks nice. Very few square watches I like and thats one of them.

eiddyfouw That Omega is . Never been a big omega person, but that watch has my interest.

 

[rfx45]

Nice Monaco JYab. Probably my favorite of all of Tags line.


Sucks that the DSotM is too big. Should have just been regular Speedy size.
