Watches - another OCD problem
-
Here is my latest ebay find (and a real bargain), a G-Shock Frogman (Men in Rusty Black variant):

Hectic, Your post reminded me that my PP had been taken out of the safe when Kiya was over here, it was sitting here on the table next to me, so photo taken…...
Jesus tapdancing christ… How much is one of those... I know what the approx. answer 'll be, but still... Fuck me that's a nice looking watch...

Yeah I was thinking it'd cost a couple of milles… Damn it... The more I read this thread, and the more watches I see, the less I like my current one... But then, it's just some 'cheap' thing to use at work... And since I do physical work, it gets a lot of bumps and scratches; it's basically abused beyond and I should feel lucky there's no such thing as an Amnesty International for watches.

I thought you were joking about how I had me hands up cow's arses all day whilst wearing my watch…
But no: nowt fancy... I just do physical labour in a depot... Unloading trucks, responsible for the beverage dept. (alcoholic and non-alco) of a local warehouse. Not for the lazy, I can tell you that... But I love it... Hard, honest work...

Stick the Patek in a cow! Nice! ROTLFMAO.
$2k for that watch even ten years ago is a frickin' super steal. Congrats. If the movement is in good shape you would bay 6-10k for that now, possibly more if it was a rare model. A new Calatrava (not quite as nice as this one) costs around $15k.

I'll be keeping an eye out for any similar bargins on IH.co.uk !!!
Me, too!
I once ran into a gorgeous IWC pocket watch in sterling silver from the 1930s I think. It was in Amsterdam. As far as I could tell it was in really good condition. That was in about 2000. The price, if I remember correctly was around 1500DM. Say around $1000. Of course, me, the eternal researcher, didn't buy it. It was, and still is, quite a bit of money for me and for something on a whim …
So I told my grandma. She was almost angry with me I didn't buy it. She said, look when there is something you really like so much, just buy it, I give you the money, I trust your judgment you won't by bad stuff. Nice grandma, eh? May she rest in peace!
