Re: Show Off Your New Watch
[mention]CVP33[/mention] is probably the best looking one so far imo, redial or not. So you ever sell watches? It's good you buy a lot of vintage. I'm just thinking of all the boxes stacked in a closet.

Yeah I save all the boxes when I get them. About 60% of what I buy is vintage so normally now boxes. As for my favorite bullhead, I'll reserve judgement until I have them all in hand.

Happiness = When you remember that you pre-ordered 2 awesome watches. DROP Glycine Pepsi Combat Sub ($399), very Orange Helm Komodo ($315). Won't see either until December but still excited.

Re: Show Off Your New Watch
Very impressed by Watches & Crystals out of the UK.
Won this Ebay auction from them this past Saturday morning, and it's already delivered this morning via FedEx.
Box came securly double wrapped in packing foam.
And they are also a Louis Erard AD, so have a signed warranty card.
Still haven't taken off the plastic, because my cheapskate nature is debating on whether I should send this back and not spend the $$$.
But the deal hunter in me is very pleased with what I spent, compared to what this generally goes for.
I also like how Louis Erard includes a single watch travel case.

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

The case styling is not something I can pull off but at the right price... [emoji6]
Maybe you can try to list it for sale to see if anyone likes it before you decide on sending it back?
I bought the Dreyfuss 1924 Automatique from them off Amazon and the owner was very responsive and accommodating despite Amazon screwing up their listings. But that’s another story.
Btw, we have a Watches & Crystals discount code manontime10 for their online store.

Re: Show Off Your New Watch
Well I actually did buy a Hamilton as well. Feel like I won the lottery at $1,186 after all rebates.

Re: Show Off Your New Watch
The prices on those Super Sevilles keep going up.
I've had a stainless steel one on my want list for a long time.
