Watch Crew: What to buy?

It’s not uncommon for a watch to be offered with a bracelet, leather strap, or rubber strap option. That is most likely the case here.

Understood, my Oris has about 4 different options from what I saw when shopping. But based on the model number I can’t find another store that has the leather option (possible the leather has a different model number and that website listed the wrong model number?). I was just going to pick up the metal one and throw a Hamilton leather strap on it, but that strap goes for about $75.
I know I am cheap, but it is almost a hobby to buy stuff for as low a price as possible. It is almost more fun to save money then to make it in my world.

Boardjnky4 we seem to have similar taste in watches.

Edit: Looks like I was right H70615733 is the leather option, where the store I listed above was H70615133

Anyone dealt with or have any information on:
http://www.countshop.com/

They have the lowest price by far.

lol we definitely do!

Not familiar with that shop. There are plenty of reputable online places to buy though.

i have a spot of dry skin on my left wrist where the crown of my Oris dig into my hand.

it doesnt really bother me but if i had the option to get the crown and buttons on the left side of the watch i would do it.

Are there any objections to moving this thread to network eventually? not immediately…

I think we should have a whole other forum for some of this stuff personally :slight_smile:

Looks like good feedback from ebay

Also found a 5% off coupon for liking them on facebook

Also looking like the could be shipping from Hong Kong.

Probably going to buy it from them unless I find some red flags during my research since they are a couple hundred cheaper than amazon or the like.

yeah…hence why I said that…

Another great deal today if you don’t mind Quartz:

Nice design. Would be tempting if it was an auto.

hah, yeah…but it’d be more expensive too

For someone that wants to look good on a budget, it’s an excellent watch.

Agreed. I think it would be a bit more versatile if they had substituted black for the red markings on the dial.

Picked up the Hamilton last night. I will post pictures when it gets in.

Put a Citizen I have only worn a couple times up for sale on here, to see if someone wants it.

:tup: ditching a citizen for an auto hamilton

Got this one on today. I’m not sure if it’s a long term keeper.

awesome time piece…not my style on looks though

lol @ the boar

I bought the citizen with the idea that it would be my “beater” and I liked the perpetual calendar and solar so I would never have to reset it or put it in a watch winder.
It is a nice watch for what it is, but wasn’t something I needed in the fleet. I have a titanium Seiko that I don’t even notice wearing that I have been using for “beater” purposes.

I have been seeking a new Hamilton since I have a soft spot for them. My Grandfather gave me a old ship clock that is in a wood box that was made by Hamilton.

Did that on purpose with this morning’s WSJ :tup:

can you post a pic of your collection? from prior posts, you’ve got to have over 50k in watches.

I don’t have a shot of everything and I don’t want to consider the math. :wink:

i want to see a shot of at least 01 of your watches all at once so that i know you actually have them… :wink:
