Such as? I think I've seen everything and the only one watch that I really like is the Grand Seiko SBGW231, but that one has been on my radar for quite a while now.
Even regular Seiko's have become expensive to be honest. What is entry level that is still fun? There is no fun mid level 2-4k watch. Not looking at Tudor with the BB58, and even those chrono's are expensive and as much a Rolex. Hamilton, Nomos, Longines, ... are all boring and bland and don't even have that special feeling a Seiko SKX has/had.

So what do you suggest? I think there are a lot of other overpriced watches at 6-12k at JLC and the likes. And then the prices goes up really fast up to 20k and more for the regular pieces of the 'other' brands. If you wanted to be quirky +6 years ago you...
6 years ago. For 22k USD.

As time goes on my material possessions really serve to remind me of the sacrifices and hard work that the generations before me put in so that I can have what I have. My grandfather sold his overcoat in the middle of winter during the depression to feed ...

It's interesting for sure. My Zeitwerk went up quite a bit due to Lange's new policies and I opted to sell it.
Amazing post....

I actually did not read the article

Because the decision process is pretty simple to me. Why did you buy the watch? Because you like it, and not because you think it’s gonna appreciate in the future. In the future if it appreciates will you sell it ? The decision is binary. Yes or no, and t...
I want to quote off a very wise man

What a well thought-out response. Thank you.
