Tip#4 How to Buy On e Bay. How are auctions run, how to beat them.
Tip#4I decided to make a separate tip, as it is so important on how to Best Bid on e BayOK!So you saved your search. You jump up one morning, click on the eBay notification, and see the watch of your dreams. Great! The search 'just' began.First click on the link, take a quick look at the pictures and description (if you have time) if nit just click 'watch it'Later that day when you have time read the description and look at pictures again. Set a price in your mind based on what you think it is worth AND what you can afford.But Do NOT bid! why show your hand some days before. Stay patient and watch.Now watch your 'potential' purchase each day. How many bidders? (more shows greater interest = higher price battle) Is Price still within your idea/guidline? If not can you or indeed willing to go higher.Note: If NOT, do not stop watching. Always watch to the end, it is the ONLY way to learn what prices watches you like are going for.Ok, do above till the final day.Then, and ESPECIALLY then

This guy makes me wonder
Last Thursday I bring 2 pieces in to my watchguy. A 60s Hamilton to have the crystal replaced and a Gruen for a crown repair and cleaning.Yesterday I picked up the Hammy. No problem. I ask him what he thinks on the Gruen job, and he tells me "Hmmm? I'll take a look tomorrow!".........................................................Now, I'm not sure how watch repairmen are taught to think or ply their trade. But when one customer brings in 2 watches at the same time, and one is finished being worked on, shouldn't the other piece have at least been looked at by now? Remember, he's had it for 9 days!!!. And I am a repeat customer (10 or 12 previous watches have been serviced and a good dozen and a half watch bands have been bought).Mr. Watchguy didn't volunteer any explanation for the delay, but an all fairness, I didn't think to ask- I was busy pulling money out of my wallet.Should I cut this guy some slack and not overthink this situation, or consider finding a different repair shop?Thi

Got a new one today...
I've wanted a Jorg Schauer Edition watch for awhile and a preloved Edition 6 came available. Jorge Schauer is the owner and designer of Stowa (a WTF sponsor ) but he also has a separate line of watches that he creates under his own name. He makes less than 500 pieces a year and all of them have the signature 12-rivet bezels. My J.S. Kulisse Edition 6 has a Valjoux 7750 movement - my first watch with this movement.I'm really ecstatic about this watch and here's some quick pics I just took...To learn more about the Schauer line, follow the Stowa link below, and then click on Jorg Schauer's pic on the lower left of their website:stowa.de/shop/cgi-bin/lshop.c....prodiveruhren

Daytona frenzy
Hi Guys,I'm looking into getting a 116500 but the gray market price seems out of control right now. Based on your guys experience with daytonas in the past, will the prices come back down anytime soon to MSRP levels or is it just going continue to go up?Also, is this a Rolex typical behavior of withholding inventory to create the hype and demand or is just the natural demand for daytonas?Thanks!

Is this rust on my 2017 Submariner?
A few days ago I noticed what seems to be a rusty coloured mark under the clasp of my bluesy. I tried to get rid of it with various cleaning products but with no success. I'm thinking 904L steel is virtually impossible to rust, let alone on a watch that is only 8 weeks old, so what on earth could this be? and how do I get rid of it? This sub is my only watch, I wear it 24/7. , sleep and shower with it on, work with it on, (hence why the gold is already looking beat up after only 8 weeks ) It's hard to describe, but in my job I wear air tight sleeves over my arms, so the watch is in an environment which contains a very high level of humidity and sweat, could this be the cause of this? As always your thoughts and help are much appreciated
