I think theres merits to both. Part of the mystique of vintage is the tales it would tell. Idk. I think that's why vintage sports watches are so sought after. If it's from a certain era it COULD have be used by fighter pilot or deep sea explorer or some shit. Probably not, but the romance is there. The funny thing is an old dress watch could be a mob bosses or some shit, but its probably just some guys watch. Still kind of cool that something is left behind even though the person(s) is gone. I have my grandpa's old seiko and a vintage omega and I do think of them quite differently.

I agree that there is more appeal for buying something new and having it associated with you since its birth. Ultimately, it is your money and from reading your comments you should get a new watch.

this is a good point, but i suppose something would have to happen to watch to make it truly mine, and not just something that i paid money for. maybe some basic refurbishing and servicing and perhaps an important event with the watch.

Ya nu rolex is piss off sometimes. It's funny because sometimes the things that people associate most with you are things that don't particularly have any meaning to you. My grandma has worn a white swatch since forever ago and whenever I see one I think of her, but I dont think she give it any thought beyond replacing the battery or watch when when it breaks. The watch I think most people associate with me is some shitty red gshock that I bought off my brothers friend for $15 for working out. Doesnt mean much to me, if I lost it I would just get another (in a different color, probably), but that is the only watch that people remember me wearing because of the color and because I use it fo all the shit I do. Biking, hiking ,climbing, chores, handyman stuff. It's kind weird. It's interesting to think about, thanks for indulging me. I wish I could help you with your dilemma. If I were to buy a new rolex I think I'd go for an OP desu. Green, black, or white if you can find an nos one somewhere. Maybe a milgauss if you're a Harry Potter fan.

I like the reduced profile and the muted colors of the A158.
The A168 has more wrist presence, though the "dial" a bit bright for my tastes.
They're both near disposable, so I have both.
The A158 get more wrist time.
A168 has an objectively better backlight, but that's not important to me.
The A700 with the flat slat bracelet had sharp corners that kept scratching me.
Also, strangely, it was "too thin" for my tastes.
I ended up gifting the A700 to someone who now wears it daily.
My current daily beater is an F-91W on a Watch Gecko strap.
I'm thinking about going back to the A158.
There's a real charm to a complete beater dressed up to look fancier than it is.
For me it will always be the A158.
The coolest bullshit watch ever made.

Well the Casio has a (stated) accuracy of +/- 30 seconds per month, so roughly +/- 1 second per day. Tudor has a (stated) accuracy of +6/-4 seconds per day.

I agree with anon.
Faux patina is lame, if it's not water proof it's not much of a field watch and plastic parts is cringe.
Also, 38mm is just too modern a size for me.
Classic 30mm-36mm is the sweet spot and you just don't see much outside of hideous "women's wear."
By "women's wear" I mean watches with superfluous rhinestones and "rose gold" or whatever.
Classic watches from the early to mid-1900's were just reasonably sized three handers.
That's al I want.

I actually like the way he delivers lug to lug because he will often offer caveats like endlinks sticking further out, stiff straps, or lugs that point straight out vs. curving down.

What he should do in terms of wrist size measurements is find some colleagues who have 6", 6.5", 7", 7.5", etc. wrists and take pictures of how it looks on each. Jenni does that with her and her husband's wrist.

we are considering upsizing to a more expensive property if prices drop by the right amount
we would roll our existing home equity into the new home, but add some cash on top of that

Well Watch Box is actually quite open about it: Their "reviews" are a showcase of their inventory, they want to sell you that watch.
Towards the size thing, he probably has to say it because they may have smaller customers (ex: Asian market) buying those watches. He can't alienate their costumers by calling them wristlest that can't pull them off, it is not their problem.
But I'm talking out of my ass, I don't have access to the watch box customer stats, but I bet that the main reason why they recommend any watch to any wrist size.

It's ironic, because rolex are better watches than patek but cost less. But casios are better watches than rolex and cost many times less. Perhaps there is an inverse square realtionship

Are you a Jew by chance?
No one should be holding themself back or blaming their own situation on anything really, you do the best you can do regardless of the situation.
I have a higher net worth than you btw. I also think Ye is right and it is reasonable to ask questions like why one type of people are disproportionately represented in certain institutions and what impact that could have on society. Do they have different values and morals than the rest of the population? There is nothing wrong with asking questions.

Right, the line used by every right-wing reactionary and concern troll, ever, throughout all of time. “Oh I’m just asking innocent questions” gtfo here with that shit we all see through you

You think valuing money and connections will get you ahead? Maybe try embodying those values yourself and see where it gets you.

And stop discriminating against people for how they look when they were born.

If you were in Rwanda you’d be blaming the Hutus for all your problems. Take some fucking responsibility for yourself.

I adore the dial of my Tri-star but it's not my every day watch and it's a pain in the ass resetting the time and date every time it dies.

Can anyone recommend something with a similar sunburst dial? Without a date function I don't care what kind of movement it has, but with a date function it has to be quartz or feature manual wind. I'm also not looking to pay more than $300 for something I don't wear all the time.

Best fit from what I know is the Nixon Time Teller but I want to see if you guys know of other options.

My wife and I are in our mid 30s, we work in tech, medicine and real estate. So combination of high income jobs, being frugal in our early years and having lucrative side hustles. Our families paid tuition and let us live at home too which helped.

I’m not discriminating anyone, blaming or hating. This is really almost a philosophical question. A small minority is extremely in this country and also a lot of evil things is coming out of that same group. There are plenty of non Jewish people that are also a problem but It is very revealing that this question is so taboo that you can’t even begin to ask it without getting called out. So there is no discussion on the topic.

I’m not salty at all because I’m very well off compared to so many. But I do worry about future generations and I have empathy for average people that are getting fucked

Nothing targeted at me personally, just overall bad for our society which I am a part of. There are a lot of things, you could start with the media and how they are pushing for racial division and conflict. A perfect example of that is how the use of the word “racism” has spiked in the past 10 years from the New York Times. Conveniently it started right after occupy Wall Street was happening, a movement which united people from different races and class against the parasites. I don’t agree with that movement completely but you can see how that was something the elites would want shut down.
