  • its crazy how they got so hyped up.

    like u can get a Seiko Speedtimer the solar quarts one for the same price as some grey market moonswatch and people stills buy a plastic toy watch over it.

    i just don’t get the hype for it. bad value for MSRP awful value for the grey market price.

    blancpain one is awful value but atleast its not hyped.

    im all for accesibility but i really don’t think these watches are it

    Right now for around 1000-1500 range that i really want to get are:

    1. Grand Seiko 6145-8050 from 1972 in Mint Condition.
    2. Speedmaster Reduced, i think i seen one used at around 1700
    3. Longines Legend Diver

    all of them are used ofc, i don’t really like to buy things new













  • Man thing thing is a beauty, for a 50+ years old watch to be in such good condition. outside and inside too.

    i don’t really care about resale value, but im planning to find a person who can polish this (locally in indonesia) without ruining the look of the case and maybe some dial restoration too so it can look like brand new.

    well that was the plan after i replace it’s mainspring.

    but this marks my 2nd watch in my collection. the next target its going to be a Tudor Blackbay 58. so gonna need to save up quite abit for that one.
