Buying vintage isn't easy, sometimes a good-looking deal might turn into an unforgettable shitter that no matter how much money you put into will never run correctly.

If you are interested in buying a based vintage watch, why not check out vintage quartz Seiko. You have Type I and Type II as well as SQ series. There are even more. A shit ton of case shapes, sizes, a metric fuck ton of high quality beautiful dials. Good luck anon!

That Breguet is fucking ugly. Central second hand and date window don't match the aesthetic.
That Calatrava is one of the one dullest versions and basically looks like some shitty Orient Bambino. It desperately lacks that neo-classic vibe that ref. 3923 had (see pic related).
The Day-Date is cool.
The Speedmaster belongs to the trash, just like every Omega.
The Submariner is nice but these 6 digits references will forever be mogged by 5 digits (the only good looking 6 digits Rolexes are the OP and Explorer).

You need to find ways to un-mess it. The "Type R" sticker in the back is new, I re-applied it because the old one was, well, old. Letters missing, torn etc.
Now, while removing the sticker, I had to scratch them off with sandpaper, i scratched off too much and went straight the primer lol. I went and bought a "Victory White" spray can, and then I had to paint it. Dried it with a heatgun, and polished the fuck out of it. How I applied the sticker so perfectly is beyond me. It was luck, pure luck. So I fixed my fuck up with know-how. The area that was re-painted was maybe 15x15cm.
Obviously you can't do that with Bentleys and GT3RS's. So..... You have to be careful. Very careful. Holograms are not a problem, you can remove them, but if you scratch the paint, well good luck.

Anyway I found a pic. Before and After.

I don't understand why the case, endlinks, links and clasp are so poorly designed on GS. It looks almost like they just took a normal cheap Seiko band and tried to make it more ritzy. I know they have their work cut out for them trying to come up with their own design language, but right now it's just ugly. Also having to explain that a GS is not a normal Seiko is akin to explaining why Tudor isn't a poorfag Rolex.

Even rich people won't or cant. You're talking 50 to 100k for a watch that costs 10 to 15k at retail. It's a joke. Sure billionaires and multi millionaires can do that, and some probably do, but many don't. Because it's fucking stupid. It's not like being rich is a reason to set your money on fire. When a Porsche costs 150k, they don't voluntarily pay 250k for it instead.

Anyone with a few hundred thousand in the bank will not do this either, and is by definition considered wealthy / upper class. Most people wont even be comfortable spending 10k on a watch, with that kind of wealth. But it's acceptable to many. Dumping a quarter of your net worth into a Rolex AD isn't acceptable though.

Yes, if you want a Daytona or GMT-Master II, watches that are made in small quantities compared to DJs, a shop will offer them to loyal customers, but if you just want a normal Rolex, you're waiting a couple months, tops.

When I bought my Exp2, I walked in with zero purchase history. I'd never even set foot in their parking lot before. I chatted with the sales girl for a bit, tried on a couple models, I liked the Exp2 and asked to buy one.
She said, "OK, no problem. We don't have any in stock, but we'll put an order in for you. We get shipments every month. We don't always know exactly what's in each shipment. So say it'll take about six months, give or take." I said OK. It took five months. Zero drama.

You bought the second least desirable Rolex sports watch (behind Air King, arguably Exp1). I'm not shitting on it, it's a nice piece. But you waited half a year for THAT. That's the point. I've been on the list for a Pepsi or Batman since half a year now too with no call in sight. I haven't spent shit there either. The guy told me expect 2 to 12 years wait. That's why a lot of people buy trash, to get advanced to 3 months wait instead. The watch you bought can be bought right now on the grey market for the same or slightly less than what you paid for it. It's just "easy" to get comparatively speaking.

I heard rawlex profiles people so if they think you are a poorfag/black you won't get on the list, if you aren't, you get it quick(er)
one benefit to not being a poorfag I heard is buying the precious metal versions which not a majority of poorfags can afford either as you can get them tons quicker, downside is 40k instead of 10k

What goalposts? Nobody is talking about "just a Rolex" here you dipshit. We can all buy Air kings, Explorers and Datejust. This is about Subs, GMTs, Daytonas. The hard to get shit. THE REAL ROLEX.

[Anonymous No.17917057]

>>17917046

Yeah, and you're looking for the most desirable watch they make (I think it's a tie with the Daytona). Those watches sell for a lot more on the gray market.
They probably probably assumed you're a flipper who just called every single AD in the country with the same request.

Well fuck me for liking the most liked Rolex pieces. The normal Sub is just too boring (and cheap) for me so I swing for the fences, since I never want to own more than 1 Rolex at a time I decided to go for the fuck off piece instead of a no date.

>>17917059

Prove it. Why are they selling used above retail?

[Anonymous No.17917064]

>fuck off piece
>instead of a no date.
what did you originally mean by this
the GMT might be the most generally useful sports rawlex tho
downside is more clutter with the gmt hand if you arent gonna use that shit, no glidelock, polished links that will get scuffed up, less wr (no one gives a shit tho)

last batman I saw in the wild was years ago at a burger king a wagie suit wearing guy rocking one
last sub I saw in the wild was another wagie worker at a tax office service desk, kek

have not seen any noteable watches irl in quite some time now, not that you asked, I just wanted to rant

Prove what, that I walked into a store on a specific date? Have you completely taken leave of your senses?
They're selling above retail on gray because some people don't want to wait at all and that the increased cost is negligible since they assume they'll always be able to sell it for more than it's worth.

The Sub is not a fuck-off piece in my opinion, a Pepsi or Batman is (because they are trading for 15 to 20k which is big bucks). A sub is around 10 or even less. Still expensive but not crazy.

This is exactly right. A kid walking in looking like a bum is going to take any Rolex that he buys and sell it immediately, so he goes to the very back of the list.
The guy who calls instead of walking in is an employee of Joma or PrestigeTime or something.

[Anonymous No.17917079]

>>17917068
ok more rarity but they are in the same price range, the gmt being tiny tiny more
sure get on the list for one and flip it and pocket the cash if you want a sub I guess is a plan
are you literally only basing this on the aftermarket prices?
it's just a steel sports model
just because artificial hype does not make it more better
but idk
now if you have something like a platinum daytona I understand

I'm going to get on the list for a black dial op or dj next month so I hope you guys that say you can get a sports watch in 3-5 months are right because that means I'll be able to get a basic rolex sooner.

I live in a watchmaker desert, only guy I could get a quote from said it would be $430 because apparently the 6r15 mainspring is ridiculously hard to source. Seiko quoted me $100 less and that included replacing the deeply scratched bezel which is also nearly impossible to source anywhere else. At least it seems to be keeping time way better than before. Was a ridiculous +30 a day and the power reserve was fucked.

Casio Duro MDV-106 yes, but remember to hunt down the older ones that still have a marlin on the dial and the back of the case. The newest series that launched a couple of years ago had to ditch the merlin because of some licence running out. There are more colors for MDV-107, but I think them no longer being Marlin Duros takes away some of the charm.

Jeez. I must have gotten really lucky then, i serviced my Weekdater twice, once for 100€ which included mainspring cleaning (so a complete disassembly and reassembly), straightening out the hands, lubricating and (shitty) regulating, and once for 40€ which included a couple of screws (that the first guy somehow missed), regulating (much better this time) and a new crystal.

David Scott wore it on the surface of the moon during his third EVA of Apollo 15 after his government issued Omega failed, he'd brought it with him as a backup, it was a prototype at the time. It's not an homage to a speedmaster, it's very much it's own thing, it happens to look similar to the speedmaster since it was designed to meet the same requirements. If you want to call it an homage, then it would be an homage to that original flight used prototype.
