My first luxury watch!

 
 By: datograph : September 10th, 2018-10:13
Okay, it’s not my first watch by luxury means, but it’s the first one which is widely known for being a luxury watch. When I was getting into watches in early 2016, I already dumped a huge amount of money in a micro-brand watch… yes, I was still really gr...  

Congrats on your apprenticeship concluding.

And great choice to have a 'std' Speedie as a reward. It sits well in any collection and even better with your personal story. One not to sell. My grandmother always advised to dispose of one's disasters swiftly and quietly move on. That Resco can be ebay... 

Thank you!

Wise words from your grandmother. At the moment, I will probably keep it and wait for a Fifty Fathoms in 40mm and then I'm going to sell it. But hell yes, I will wear the hell out of my Speedy, such a versatile watch.

Thank you! [nt]

How did you find about Resco and why did you wanted it and ended up buying one? I wouldn't care too much in the end, looking at value or not. You let your heart decide. Can't be bad.

Jim Caviezel wore it in Person of Interest – my favorite TV series.

I noticed this watch and found it on watchesinmovies – I really liked it (and as you said I let my heart decide), I still do sometimes. I don't care about value at all, it's more that it has no reasonable image and not a very innovative design.

Or fit it to a vintage style bracelet or mesh [nt]

Congratulation on your first Omega.

My First high end watch was also Speedy and if i'm forced to have only one watch this will be it. Cheers

Thanks!

 
 By: datograph : September 11th, 2018-09:13
One watch only... puh, would be a pretty hard choice for me. 8o

Congratulations!

That’s a very solid choice - a Speedmaster never goes out of style and the heritage behind them is already legendary. Looks great on your wrist too.

congrats!

The Speedmaster was my first "real" watch...

 
 By: jayeyedoubleemmwhy : September 11th, 2018-19:47
... I was so nervous about how to wind it and how it looked on my wrist - I actually sold it after a month. How foolish! I regretted it so badly, I ended up buying another Speedmaster a couple years later and wear it almost daily now. Good choice!

I was also a little worried about the manual winding, haha.

Thanks and also wear your Speedy in good health!

Congratulations and welcome to the club.
