Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2019

Quick update on this: received a shipment notification and tracking number tonight, so it appears guest checkout with Paypal worked. Will post photos in the appropriate thread once it arrives. On that Macys FRIEND deal going through tomorrow, reminder that they do carry a variety of brands for which...

Beautiful watch--hope you get it.
Thanks! BTW, folks, get yourself a partner who, when you tell her you’re having trouble with Macy’s rejecting your watch order, offers to let you try to order with her name and Macy’s credit card. My wife is awesome.

Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2019

On that Macys FRIEND deal going through tomorrow, reminder that they do carry a variety of brands for which the deal may be effective, including the newest models for some of those brands. For instance, I’ve had my eye on the new Mido Patrimony, for which the code works: https://www.macys.com/shop/p...

SOLD - FS: Hamilton Khaki Navy UTC/GMT “Skymaster”

SOLD - thanks MoT! For sale is my used Hamilton Khaki Navy GMT. I bought this as a pre-owned piece from Ashford last July and have worn it about 40 times since. It appeared to be a store display model with little prior use. The watch is in very good condition overall. The polished areas of the case ...

SOLD: Timefactors Smiths PRS-36

SOLD — thanks MoT! Hello friends, For sale is my used handwinding Timefactors Smiths PRS-36. This is a beautiful watch but I’ve got my eye on something new. The watch is in very good condition overall. The highly polished case does show a few small/micro scratches here and there. I’ve tried my best ...

Re: Paratrooper straps from Cheapest NATO Straps

Just got one of these myself, and it does seem as if the single-pass design with only a double-hole buckle is a design flaw. It needs either an elasticy-loop to tighten against the buckle or else a triple-hole buckle to keep the strap from loosening (or else you have to "permanently" stitc...

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2019

I've had my eye on these Briston Clubmasters for a while -- they're a fashion watch but I like the tortoiseshell acetate cushion case twist and seems like they'd be a nice beater. Anyway, I figured the price should come down if I waited long enough, and it finally has on eBay to ~$70 with shipping: ...

Re: Share An Out Of Reach Grail

While technically, I could sell a large portion of my watches and get this, I couldn't justify it. It is JUST out of reach. With life changes, my expendable income isn't the same. If only I got into watches when I was younger and single, I could have a hell of a collection. Anyways, this is my curr...

Ways to promote this forum?

The banning of a thread followed by deletion of all references to an alternative is a sign of an unhealthy, ego-driven, power-obsessed community. If the banning of the thread had been for the reasons cited, having someone offer an alternative to save their resources should have been welcomed. By now...

Re: Heads Up! I Saw A Bargain Here! 2018 Continued

Not a deal

Amazed by this thread/site so far...was hoping the thread could continue somewhat in its former form, but it’s like it took a ton of HGH/steroids and came back stronger. Alternatively, it’s the Phoenix to WUS’s Jean Grey.
