Does this make any sense?
Lets say I want to buy a Rolex worth $5,000 If I immediately think about it, I'd say it's way out of my reach at the moment. But is it?I was generally pondering about it and something just struck me...Say, on an average, I spend about $100 (though, its close to $200) on watches(or maybe a couple of nigh outs) every month, that I'm most likely to flip in a few months or so. This money isn't a big deal, especially since I'm unmarried, and is likely to be spent elsewhere, if not on watches. Keep in mind, this money is in NO (note the emphasis on NO ) way, a part of your savings!Ok, so instead of spending that $100 there, does it make sense to take a small loan and buy the Rolex instead? Even, if you can just afford a minimum of $100 a month...it'll mean paying for about 5 yrs (including interest). 5 years for a watch that's likely to last you a lifetime and it'll be something that I'd love to wear everyday. I'd be happy to flip all my other watches (leaving the OM and EL) and keep just 3

Questions Concerning Magnetism And Watches
Greetings.I'm an aspiring writer working on a crime novel. I had the idea of making one of the clues having to do with demagnetized/magnetized watches, causing them to gain or lose time. Problem is I know little about it, and I was hoping someone (or multiple people, I'm not picky) here could answer a few questions if it isn't too much trouble.Basically any information would be of immense value, but the primary questions that have popped into my head are...Which is the correct term for referring to a watch that has lost/extra time? Demagnetizing or magnetizing?How long does a magnet need to be in contact with the watch before an effect can be seen?Does the length of time a magnet is in contact with the watch effect the severity of the time disparity?Why do some watches go faster and others go slower as a result of magnets?What is a best case, worst case, and general case scenario in terms of an effect a magnet has on a watch? I was skimming about and noticed someone said something

Super Avenger moving in-house
Link to Breitling¡¯s IG for image, more details to come apparently tomorrow:https://instagram/p/BaHHHJoBMrt/What do you think?I¡¯m a bit bugged they keep having an open 4 on the bezel when all 4s on the dial are closed. They¡¯ve done that for years. I think asking for coherent fonts on a luxury product like that should be the least of things. Anyhow, otherwise quite promising, no?

Ceramic Seamaster or Black Bay?
Hi All - I've decided that one of these two will be my next watch. I'm a few months away from securing the funds and am having a real hard time deciding on which to get. Has anyone here had a chance to try on both? I've owned quite a few Seamasters and tried on the new ceramic at a local AD. I love it. But I also can't stop looking at pics of the BB. I don't know of anyone local who has one so I haven't been able to try it on. Price is right about the same; resale on the BB should hold up better but I don't plan on flipping this one. I think I know which side this forum will favor but I'd still appreciate feedback from people who have worn one or both. Thoughts?

If You Were Me (5396r-012)
I am relatively new to this, so would like your advice. I bought a Patek 5396r-012 from a trusted seller here for what I felt was a good price. I love the face of the watch, love the numerals, enjoy the rose gold and leather look. Alas, it's a bit too small for me. I even had a chance to wear it at the store first, and felt it would work. But it doesn't really. I'm a big guy and this is a thin 38.5 diameter. I paid around $37k, which I felt was a good deal on this watch. Now, about a month later, I've inquired around for a trade, and the value is 20% less. I'd be down around $7k on it in 30 days, including from the seller I bought from. Obviously, I thought I'd be able get more of my money out of this watch if it didn't work. Nobody TOLD me that, I just thought. Again, I'm new to this, and I hope it's okay to post these numbers here as I don't often see prices being discussed like this. Can edit if necessary. What would you do in this situation? Keep it for a while? Try to sell it your
