Can't go wrong with luxury

Luxury SPAM, that is! If you guys are hurting, I'm selling:



Just be sure to bring cash (any currency will do)



Cazalea

PS - I love that watch too, but I gave up the lease on the Fiat and passed on the matching watch

Why did I let this go again?

Lockdowns are a good time to reminisce. Not to smile but to kick oneself. I mistimed selling this and it was totally unnecessary too. I think I just felt guilty looking at $$$ sitting on my small watchbox unworn. This would have been a good time to rebond...  

Seeking beauty and cultivate a passion are great opportunities we have during these difficult times...Only something to be proud of.

Too bad you let this specific watch go, in my opinion (of which you took a couple of stunning pics!), but I'm also certain that many more pieces that you'll fully love will come along when the world reopens! Stay safe! ;-)

The lightning bolt was the number 1 reason why I bought a black one when it came out - more than 10 years ago now

The negative for me was the brushed center link of the bracelet...

I've been thinking about a Milgauss as well.

Have never owned a modern Rolex, and I'm starting to think that could be the one. (Definitely one with the green glass, though!)

A great summer look.

I've seen combos with white or orange rubber straps that looks cool.

Somtimes you don't realize how much you like a watch until you let go. I have 4 or 5 watches like that which I Won't sell a 2nd time. There's still a couple more like that I'm still looking

for... and move often than not I've had to pay more the 2nd time around to have that same watch, in the same condition... again.

The white dial Milgauss is my favorite variant

I think it has a more scientific look to it. Sorry you had to let it go!

I was in my white dial phase then and absolutely enjoyed the hell out of it..

 
 By: Echi : March 31st, 2020-21:22
Then one day, white phase turned to black for some inexplicable reason.

An underappreciated Rolex!

Very nice watch! Luxuries are things we focus on after we have the necessities. Seems like you already have the SPAM, so that's why you can divert your attention to watches. If you didn't have the SPAM, then we probably wouldn't be thinking about watches.... 

Right you are, Patrick. Off topic, I'm looking forward to a product review in the future..

Enjoyed that Away review. Had me looking at their stuff as I was looking for a Rimowa alternative

Any suggestions for new topics?

 
 By: patrick_y : April 1st, 2020-11:27
I'm so glad I got the AWAY; I got a set of three and I'm very very happy with the two check ins. I now have 4 aluminum RIMOWA Trunks that are not going to be used though. Big problem. They're all brand new too. I have one plastic Rimowa trunk that I've al... 

I only have one, the aluminum one that's next to the biggest one. I'm quite happy with it..

I don't mind if it gets banged around and contrary to what some do (plaster them with stickers) I'd rather let its bruises speak for itself. Hard to look for a comparable clam shell type that's a bit more affordable. Not a big fan of zippered luggage as w... 

Maybe post a vest question in the photography forum?

 
 By: patrick_y : April 2nd, 2020-11:08
That's a difficult thing, finding a vest that isn't too immediately obvious. Hmm. I'll keep an eye out for nice clamshell luggage without zippers. Rimowa, Zero Halliburton, Tumi's 19 Degrees, are what comes to mind first. All of them are too expensive and... 

Not at all but my time with the white dial Milgauss has come to a temporary end (never say never). If ever, a GV. The AK is back in the box..

 
 By: Echi : March 31st, 2020-23:33
Reserving it for when they extend these crazy (albeit necessary) lockdowns. Love the AK, lots to enjoy on that dial. Just wish they had a glidelock on that one.. in fact, should be de rigeur on all professional pieces! Hope you are well, mon ami. Stay saf... 

Orange strap

Found a rubber strap on Ebay to fit.. Keep the original under wrap.. ...  

Cool combo. [nt]

Thank you for sharing the story

Good that you took many photos of it. I feel the same way for watches that I said “no” to and then wondered WHY OH WHY. Like this emoji 🤦‍♂️ Perhaps the saying about absence and the fonder heart, is right after all. Love the lightning bolt ! Best regards,...
