@Utc ooof that is beautiful!
@MDV I’m a fan of Boldr. I’ve got the Venture Ivory White on my list for 2023 Watch purchases.

I’m sad to say I’ve decided to close this instance down. It was a fun experiment for a couple months, but there’s little engagement here and sites like WatchCrunch already exist.

I’m on there regularly and it’s great, I’d strongly suggest you sign up if you’re interested in the social side of watch collecting.

This instance will cease to exist on 25th Jan.

I don't think I'll ever buy a luxury watch, but if I ever did, I think this #Omega would probably be my grail.
@diniz_bortolotto I’ve got this watch on order at the moment. I can’t wait for it to turn up.
Are Luxury Watches Worth It?

Both luxury and affordable watches tell the time to a similar degree of accuracy. So are they luxury watches worth it?

@roguefoam great choice! 👌
@ChairmanBored a couple of friends in work have them and sure, they’re nice watches, but not 5 figures worth of nice!
What’s your opinions on micro/more affordable brands?
They’re a great way of getting into the hobby
