That Grand Seiko dial is simply off the charts!

They also refurbished the bezel action on mine, it’s very stiff now with no back play, and very noisy.

£10,000 buys you great marketing

£300 buys you great finishing

You pay your money and take your choice ;)

Only partially joking !!!

Do I not like that!

Mine lasted about 2 years on the 5 second jump mode ;)

Recently got mine back from a 5 month service, looking very nice indeed! 3 pushers replaced, and it now seems uncannily accurate, lost about...

I’m not sure where the “one watch” standard comes from? This is a watch forum, I bet very few members only have 1 watch 🤷*♂️

I think it looks good, and agree that it’s too much money.

Picked up...

That PO looks great! Much prefer the muted finishes - too thick though, agreed.

You guys must really hate The Mad Watch Collector channel 🤣

New today!

My crown is already upgraded 👍

Mine is at Omega for a service, will be 5 months before I see it again :(

The gen1 is the best x33 in my opinion, adding a gen2 crown is a good upgrade though. I think the watch gets steadily less...

I think it looks great 👍

Nice!

I’m impatiently waiting for my 02 Steffany to arrive :)

I think they look pretty good actually!!

The thick straps are interesting too, and the bracelet looks great.

It certainly makes the ceramic Speedmasters bargains. 🤷*♂️

As for the value proposition of luxury watches? We all tell ourselves stories to justify the price, and the level of that price shifts...

For some reason I’m drawn to the Studio Underdog - £800 seems steep for a microbrand though? It’s not the kind of watch I normally go for, it’s a mystery!

£340 for a disposable plastic watch, count me out 🤷*♂️, but I quite like the look of the blue one 🤦🏻*♂️

Saw a guy wearing a Nautilus on the train to London yesterday, shirt sleeve rolled up. I was tempted to comment, but didn’t 🤷*♂️

On YouTube - they look a lot better with the sun on the dials. Substantially better I’d say.

The reaction to the price of these is interesting. Nobody bats an eyelid to a Sinn U50 for 3 grand, with its mass produced mechanical movement. The quality of the case work and bracelet is way above...

I think the problem with the ploprof hour hand is tbs t it’s black, if it were white, it would look bigger.

The ploprof looks good - through as has been said the hour hand looks too small? The normal ploprof retails at 11 grand anyway

The MRG squares are lovely in my opinion. The differences are subtle, but there. Separate bezel in a deferent metal, much crisper case machining, construction and finishing - is this worth the...

I’ve met the guys who allegedly did this, really nice sincere, knowledgable people! I’m amazed and saddened that they did it, if found guilty.

Lots of dodgy stuff going on here!
