It's now gone as well...but they did mention Half of the 250 is available somewhere....

which again is still not a lot for the world.
Maybe I'm being too critical, not a lot of scalpers after all P

Today the famous blog/commercial AD released a collaboration of Tag Heuer Dato....limited to 250 and of course, sold out not sure within how long because I wasn't interested. This one is a vintage tribute which I don't know about and interesting to see a ...
I like the design

Price was definitely a little steep but I thought about it. I find it really cool. About the business of professional flippers, I won't comment much - this is just an extreme version of what has happened in the grey market for a while. It would be good if...

Bucherer and many watch brands has many....I suspect WoS will be next since they are getting so Big now...oh wait, I think they did some recently too. Car + Watches, Wine + Watches, Food + Watches, all Purist stuff, haha...
Yes, exactly 😀

And I had no idea of that $8M sale! Crazy. The vintage ones don’t seem to bother me as much as the modern ones, though.
Transparently absurd artificial, fabricated and temporary value IMO

The great things is we don’t have to buy these collaborative marketing pieces. For passionate enthusiasts like most of us I don’t like the lack of availability of some of the finest of pieces from the big five (I won’t state them to avoid controversy and ...
Still don't like the labelling of "Hodinkee" on the watch...
By: pfang56 : February 24th, 2021-00:29
And while the Blancpain collaboration was enticing I couldn't stand the engraved "Hodinkee" on the rear. I just don't see a situation in 50 years that this brand name will have a lasting legacy or brand like a Tiffany. I could be totally wrong and Hodinke...
Good points...
By: pfang56 : February 24th, 2021-08:46
But I do always ask the question - what exactly is proprietary for Hodinkee that enables them to build a lasting brand? With watches and other fine collectibles there is plenty of design and engineering related innovation at varying degrees and levels. Ho...
They are not creating a brand ....

They (not just them) and some ADs are capitalizing on the fact that collectors love “limited” and “sought after” pieces, and these pieces have gone up in value so “specollectors” love them ) They don’t need to spend resources hiring watch makers and start...
Not just the pros

I did some recreational scalping of tickets when I was a student and used the proceeds to pay for my trip to the event. Truthfully, if you have the time, have the means and are into watches, it is tempting to flip of few Hodinkee specials and use the proc...
That is true and honestly ...

Who doesn’t want to make a few bucks and use that to fund your favorite watch? Hmmm....oops, now might have one more competition 😅
