Looking for a sub <£3.5k watch that can be used for daily wear without 'worrying'
My style is generally quite smart casual so I have really longed for a JLC (Even though I know these are not the...
Currently have (intended use case)
Vacheron Constantin Overseas 42042 (casual/formal)
Rolex Submariner 5513 (casual)
Looking actively:
Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5066 (casual / almost daily but in...
Have been eyeing an aquanaut ever since I saw the design couple years ago. Pretty set on picking this model up
1) have small wrists and I do not like bold/bulky
2) one of the earliest aquanauts...
just had a look at the yachtmaster - I like this - https://www.rolex.com/watches/yacht-master/m226659-0002.html - but without the unecssary white gold bumping up the price tag to 20k e.g. patek...
Have an eye on the Patek Aquanaut (as cliche as that is), but clearly getting it at retail/2nd hand requires some skill
Any similar style alternatives worth considering? happy to hear
So just seen the "new" price is RRP of £15110.
What is the actual process of purchasing such a watch (In London if that helps). Do you go to any AD and 'register'? How long are wait times IRC <3y?...
All humour aside. Just shows how fickkle perception is. Why would i need to settle for a quartz and ish, when I can get a 5500 air king automatic, and vintage for well within that budget. Any other...
Looking to purchase it as a gift for someone. Do not mind if used. Not familiar with this end of the spectrum for rolex
Would the best bet be to look at air king? oyster perpetual or datejust? My...
No happy to pay the price for servicing.
But im just weary of the crown change. Its like with vintage rolex (althought this VC is not theoretically vintage). Many sub's had their crown changed...
Thanks for the reply
The shop is the official VC store in London (Only one)
Issue: Watch upon winding, stops
Model: 42042/423A-8872 OVERSEAS men's "37mm",
Shop in London claims it needs a full servicing. I bought it, owned it for 6m+ but do not know when it was last...

Description as follows:
1970 Rolex Submariner ref. 5513 Non-Serif Dial
2.5 mil serial number circa 1970 production
Excellent vintage condition case with even lugs...
All,
Looking for a 5513 and it will be used for regular wear and investment purposes (e.g. would be good to hold something which will appreciate although i know nothing is guaranteed)
I am...
Hi all,
Looking to make my first rolex purchase either a 5513 or 1680
Im a bit undecided on either, I think I am indifferent to both, will depend on price+patina+accessories it comes with
...
Seen, thanks. Will use as reference for prices, condition.
In general can you expect the level of original goodies as below? Obv this bumps the price. 6.75k £ is on the upper end for me
- Box:...
Great think this is the one I was actually looking for. The hands are all matching, normally it is red?
Edit: it appears only certain models of 16800 fit my criteria " (79-83) with matte dial and...
is the 16800 before or after the one i mentioned? Have you got a resource to quickly identify all models/chronological
All, looking to get my next watch: Currently own a Vacheron Constantin Overseas gen 1 which I love. This is a 36mm but because of integrated case runs big i believe
I am thinking about a divers...
I have had an eye on the the: Girard Perregaux Laureato

Yeah I really like the VC brand. Customer service in store whilst not amazing (they didn't know much about pre 2000 watches) was excellent. More so from the in house watchmaker, great conversation...

Presume ebay or on forums?
I have a:
Tissot Gents PRC 200 T17.1.516.32, that I have had for 3/4 years sitting unused. Keen to get rid

Bit of an open ended question, and very relative to how much you spend on watches
But for daily wear - do people have a watch brand/models that because they cost more then e.g. 8k£, or are...
Yes I would be interested in such a thing. Newbie question, but obviously you want your watch to be accurate(if you buy 2nd hand), and people say it should be X +/- e.g. +/- 15 seconds. So could you...
