my current everyday watch is getting repaired, can’t wait to get it back. Tag Heuer Carrera 1887. Swiss casing and externals coupled with Japanese internals made by Seiko. I believe it’s the only Tag ever made in unison with another watch manufacturer. My favorite watch I’ve ever purchased, also very affordable at 5-6k new, 2.5-3k used however it is discontinued so I’m not sure if it’s more now.

I have a SRP777 as a beater. I want a better looking diver for everyday. Something a little prettier than this thing, but not "nice", not "dressy", and not a "sports watch". Just a beater that's just a notch more blingy and less straight up beater beater, if you know what I mean.

I was looking at those new NB6021s, but then someone psyoped me into looking at reps and now I'm thinking it would be fun to get a high quality rep, specifically either a Superocean Heritage from GF Factory or a Black Bay from ZF. Both are brands I absolutely despise for no rational reason other than maybe the fact that they have an angloid stink, but I kinda like the looks of both watches.

Anyone got one of those things, and how do they hold up to stuff like everyday abuse, taking a shower with it on, etc? Pic unrelated

At least where I'm at it's suposedly a bit different
Since pandemic the reliability of deliveries from Rolex has changed. They suposedly don't get the stuff as they got them pre-pandemic. Rolex literally sends them whatever and they have to work with that. Similar things with waitlists. In my AD they open and close those as they have to share their partnof the allocation between 7 or 9 shops in total.
But yeah they usually sale to whatever they want or have a relationship with.
I got talky with rep that get me on a list for 3 rlxes total. I also bought a Cartier for my wife.

Lady DJs are readily available because no one wants anything below 30mm. It's too old-fashioned. Girls these days wants something between 31-36.

I didn't say like it's a bad thing. Bad thing is what Chopard is doing pushing quartz shit for the Rolex/Onega price.
Having said that before we got Cartier we also went to see Omegas Devile 28mm red. Dial is a stunner. I even briefly considered buying his and hers. But when we handled it, it felt soooo fucking cheap. I swear it felt like a god damn plastic.
Cartier on the other hand was money. I also tried Santos, but it's not for me. I really want to like it tho...

It's kinda funny seeing rolextards use the same arguments and taunts poorfags use against them, but directed against patek owners

It’s a fucking watch that!s not expensive and should be treated as a fucking tool.

Oh anon, I'm sure you will.

LMAO. Goddamn you're a retard. If you truly believe a watch is a tool you'd buy a fucking casio 5600 and be done with it. Any rolex, patek, or whatever watch above 1k is just jewlery for men.
Only insecure people deny that. You don't buy a rolex or a patek to tell the time, you do either because you enjoy them or want to show off, and there is nothing wrong with it. Denying this is like those people afraid to order cocktails at a bar to not appear feminine

The dial very obviously 'inspired' by the OP and the bracelet isn't the watch, anon.

The case looks nothing like Patek. Looks good, but totally different.

I've soaked some of my leather straps in sweat completely many times, they develop a nice patina.

Just take it to your local watchmaker and let him source it for you. You might pay a bit more but you're spared the hassle of finding, buying and shipping one yourself.

So rectangular indices are now a rolex prerogative? Becaus the dial color is different, the cyclop presence is different, the case and strap ARE part of the watch you retard.
It's just the age old rolexkek thinking everything is a rolex cope in order to justify them buying overpriced memes.

There are some leather straps that have a rubber underside. The better ones, like the hirsch james, have a ribbed underside for airflow. Some have holes that perforate both rubber underlayer and leather top. Racing style straps. These features allows for airflow, and the rubber is the part that touches your skin not the leather ensuring better longevity.
The james for example looks just like a leather strap when on the wrist.

I've only ever owned the james, and noted that hirsch did those racing straps with the holes too but there must be other brands out there with the same concept.
Otherwise a rubber or silicon tropic strap with all the holes for airflow are a nice hot/humid weather alternative to a bracelet, depending on the watch style of course.

Because it’s annoying as shit. Watches are meant to be worn and enjoyed. If you buy a watch, chuck it in a safe to never be worn the oils will also degrade and it can wreck the watch anyways. It’s the equivalent of buying a brand new car and never driving it.
