Does R3V know anything about watches?

[Joe G]

I love watches, but I really have grown to love Antique clocks. My dad has around 300 19th century clocks that are really works of art.

He also has a few beautiful watches that I've been trying to get my hands on for years. One is an early 70s Movado automatic, it runs flawlessly, but my dad is OCD and has been trying to get the second hand to hit directly on the hash marks for years. haha If that ever happens then the watch is mine!

My Panerai "homage" showed up today from Hong Kong. It's a nice watch, but honestly I think the fossil I have a few posts up is built better. I'll grab a better picture soon, my nikon has a dead battery and I can't find the dumb charger block.

Eric -

Love that watch!

[OniKyan]

If i was to spend any more than this on a watch it would be a Breitling. I don't see the point in buying useless crap though.

I really love the classic fliegeruhr styles and slight variations thereof. Nice examples are made by Sinn, Tutima/Glashütte, Fortis, Hanhart, and IWC:

Those are pretty sick. BMW had a tachometer looking watch with the E30 M3 tach as the dial. I saw one on ebay recently but wasn't in the position to buy it... I should have though.


Here is my new daily that my father bought me for christmas. At first I wasn't too big on it, but I'm starting to like it more and more each day I wear it.

Never mind the smudge.

Read the reviews, they are the best part.

Those are some funny reviews. The watch its self is horridly ugly. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for Tourbillon movements, but that watch is fugly.

I have a 40mm Rolex sub and a 45mm Omega Planet Ocean and honestly, the Omega doesn't feel THAT much bigger.

Yeah, that's why I want to try one on......I love the style, but I'm not sure about the size.

Those TW steel watches are huge. I just got a 44mm watch and it seems way too big.

[z31maniac]

I'm still really digging the TW Steel stuff, even though it may not have a stellar reputation. Trying to find a local place that carries them so I can see it/touch/hold in person before I drop that kind of coin.

Also some speakers I've been wanting to buy for a few years just went on sale and I still need to finish the track car.

Fuck.

First time wearing my vintage automatic bulova...
