Rolex

Recently returned from UK and whilst not currently in the market (aside for a DJ36 for my wife). I spent a few hours cursory watch window shopping. I have the longest while always felt a RG sports may be next on the list but was particularly disappointed ...  

It looks good on you though.

They want to shift the products

It’s fairly common place and the levels of discount are increasingly dropping. Merely an observation

However, with most Rolex watches just like popular Patek, the demands is greater than the supply. Best, Kari

so the solution is look at other brands and watchmakers and not just focus on Rolex and Patek.

I just bought one as a daily beater. It’s the perfect WIS watch: Small size no date All the right vintage queues without going overboard on Fauxtina Great luminousity Solid construction In-house movement At this price point unbeatable in my view.

but they share one thing: quality. Best Kari

I have still own many and I never had the smallest problem with any of my Rolexes. A standard service every ten years or so... Best, Kari

especially the lack of bling. Its a cool watch.

No message body

This is a perfect example of the kind of watch that I think looks spectacular as an object in itself, but whenever I've tried it on, it just doesn't do it for me. I was close to getting one last year, and I realized I was trying to convince myself that I ...
