Watches - another OCD problem

[sabergirl]

I will definitely keep it in mind.  Thank you.

Also, I just got this new toy, and it’s beat to shit, but it’s all mine! Seiko 6309-7049Scratches the itch for now, eh? Given the condition, I’d say I got an okay deal.

Thanks. Do you think that the bond nato strap makes the watch look casual rather than an expensive looking watch ?

[louisbosco]

nato for sure..

[Chris]

Definitely the nato.

Yes, it makes it look more casual, but it's a dive watch, so it should look more casual.

Nato. Nice watch. Buy some handcreme.

I don't think it looks more expensive on bracelet but if you are more of a bracelet guy it looks absolutely fine. Of course I prefer nato

No problem!!

You think Paula will give you the green light to buy when she can see it in the daylight and your argument is more coherent than, "Look at it!"?

[Giles]

Clint told me that she'd said yes….....

[mikebarhoot]

Anyone following the Only Watch auction?

The big results were:

• The Patek Phillipe 5208T sold for CHF 6.2 million.

• The FP Journe monopusher fetched CHF 1.15 million.

• The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar went for CHF 800K.

• The Lefty Bronze Black Bay hit CHF 350K, down on the record set last time.

My favourite piece, the Laurent Ferrier x Urwerk, went for CHF 100K. It's far cooler than the Patek, so the owner should be happy that he or she saved CHF 6.1 million.

No real bargains this time round, though.

the prices are starting to get ridiculous nowadays. in other news, there's an interesting write up in hodinkee's first publish about "the" paul newman. not "a" paul newman..
