they are just baller as hell, and look real nice.

it might not look like much to you, but it impresses the people it is supposed to impress. there’s a lot more reasons too. quality, craftsmanship, kinetic, 01239201980827437 individual pieces, etc that true watch gurus will go on about what makes them so awesome, but the real reason is they are just baller.

think of it like some blangin riiimz. they don’t do anything that a 15" hubcap doesn’t do besides looks. same concept IMO.

I haven’t worn velcro sneakers since I learned to tie my shoes. I just contributed as much to this thread as you did. :tup:

Back on topic, nice watch. I’m holding out for a Panerai or similar though. Might never justify getting one.

Exactly. 250-500 MSRP is a mid-grade watch at best…not to mention I am selling this at EIGHT HUNDRED OFF its MSRP. You get what you pay for when it comes to watches. If you want top of the line, hand crafted, sleek design, durable, and an “investment” you do have to pay for it. If all you care about is the time, and plastic and scratches will do… well, then thats your thing. many of us put watches in the same class as jewelry… and expect the same quality & design from them as jewelry.

LOL… its too bad this isnt my busy season. Otherwise, i might have taken you up on the “Slavery for Seiko” option…haha.

And you are right… watch people are watch people. They know what they like, and will often approach you about it- just like car people do. A huge amount of work goes into making handcrafted and/or complicated/exotic watches, and it deserves some respect.

lol, do you think I didnt try? no matter how I tried to take the pictures, they came out like shit. its too reflective to use a flash, and with ambient backlighting that is bright, you cant see the dial or any features. If you really want to see it, search on ebay for its model number and look at everyones file photos…and higher prices!

And by the way, open your eyes before you open your mouth. It IS selling.

History: 1 bid

you can still edit it, just take it into another room that has more light if you can. i’ve had to mess around a LOT with eBay pic lighting before. and even though people can easily look up the model # and see what it looks like, they want to see _this_ watch. get what you deserve for this watch :tup:
