    how do you deal with scratches on your watches?

    it's not a simple question actually.... on the one hand, polishing by hand is a welcome solution in home conditions. the problem is that the process takes forever and you'll probably give up before getting a decent effect... however, this technique is the most rational of all because the watch...

    Code 11.59 Audemars Piguet.... what do u think?

    I think the royal oak didn't become popular overnight either... even if the design was validated by the audience, the price for stainless steel was not validated, which cost more than a kidney in those days.... I think that the Code collection also needs some time to assimilate in people's...

    old vs new watches. new- are pissing me off...

    so much theory here and no concrete example))))) 😁😁😁 it depends a lot on the brand we are talking about. but if we talk in general, yes, I agree, the tendency to reduce aesthetic creativity has changed dramatically. here, for example, is a Seiko 5 from 2021 contrasted with one from 1975. in the...

    Solid vs open caseback

    I don't think it's a good idea to skip the movements right from the beginning. movements is what make a watch work by definition and it is important to understand their specific characteristics from the very beginning. you suggest that @Eddie buy a BMW just because it's beautiful on the outside...

    Solid vs open caseback

    look at this beauty... it's the main reason why a watch should have a transparent back. I ended up not accepting original watches without a transparent caseback, because I think it's a terrible deal-braker. how can you not be attracted to such beauty?

    Black Bay Pro Tudor vs Pelagos!!! my own insight

    pleasantly surprised by this model. it looks really good. and the vintage aura is clearly felt. agree that it is a bit thick for my preferences. but I can forgive these shortcomings precisely because of the very well-balanced dial. I like that the dots on the hour markers are well proportioned...

    Tag Heuer as a brand. Any thoughts?

    welllll, it kinda depends on your preferences..... to my preferences, it lacks something, exactly as you said in the description... and I'm not just saying it theoretically, but from my own experience. I had an aqua racer some time ago. at first, it seemed ok to me, but too soon I lost my...

    nice to meet u 😁 cheap reps last up to 1 year. within this period, they wear off to such an extent that it gets impossible to look at... Sherlock or Watson, IT'S ELEMNTARY 🤌😁😁

    Rep, ruined my watch perception!

    f*ck off for the "idiot" thing! u understood nothing from what I meant..... being honest and sharing own opinion means to be "idiot", as it turns out....the point is that if you pay for a gen Rolex u know u get quality. so, if u pay for a fake, U KNOW u take an inferior quality, and there is...

    Rep, ruined my watch perception!

    that's the point: you JUST CAN'T EXPECT A BRITISH (OR WHATEVER ELSE) PIZZA TO BE LIKE THE ITLIAN ONE... with just a little information and discussion BEFORE going to any other country than ITALY, THERE WILL FOR SURE BE SOMEONE WHO WILL TELL U THAT THE British one sucks. and when u arrive to...

    vintage/preowned/new/replica?

    wouldn't b so sure about it. 1K reps look like gens, identical for an untrained eye.... met such models, remained impressed by how good they look and how precisely they work
