Watch Curmudgeon: How Little Did You Pay For That Watch?
What do you think a gorgeous watch should cost that's meticulously crafted, and features a fine ETA automatic movement, a thick, domed sapphire crystal, state-of-the-art lume, a superb strap or bracelet, and many more amenities? $5,000? $4,000? $3,000.? $2,000.? Hold that thought.Now, what do you think when you see a watch on worn&wound that has all the above going for it but only costs about 500 bucks? Impossible? Mistake? Piece of junk? Drunk editor? Typo? Probably made in a leper colony in Outer Mongolia? All the above?Well, if you're a regular reader of this blog, you know damn well what $500 will get you: a damn incredible watch! But did you ever wonder how that's possible? Or if serious watch makers offering those deals are making any money? Let me assure you that it's extremely possible, and those (smart) companies are doing quite well, thank you very much.Let's examine this conundrum by first looking at distribution. Watch companies that offer the most extreme value are sel

Can't get the ROC panda out my mind
Hi guys.it's been close to 8 months that the ROC Panda is in and out of my mind. I can't seem to get rid of it, even after buying and selling other watches, it's always coming back to the surface.I currently have a AP 15300 white dial and a Rolex 116610LN in the collection. Looking for a third piece I wanted to add a chrono, for the look of it. For accurate timing I use an Rubidium atomic clocking device linked to GPS synch, so the sole reason of the chrono is to time my steak on the grill ;)So I care little for bph and absolute precision of the movement. I want something real nice and in house that would complement my collection. Do you think the 15300 and 26300 are too similar to be in the same collection ? Please share your ownership experiences and what you thinkIf you have some nice ROC shots, please share as well.Cheers

Best Option For 45mm PO trade to 42mm PO
I have a 45mm 2500 PO that I have recently decided is slightly too large for my wrist. I believe that the 42 would be a better fit. Does anyone have any advice about the best way to go about sourcing a 42mm? Should I look for a straight up trade with a trusted seller on TRF? Or sell mine first and look to purchase a 42mm with the proceeds? My AD does not deal in used watches so that is isn't an option, unfortunately. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Just got this PO to go with my 168000 Sub...
I'm wearing this everyday, boxed but no papers (can I get them off Omega?) it's big at 45.5mm but I love it. Just a Panerai 111 and an SMP to get for my other grails...when will it end???
