Some watch shots

I don’t know shit but the article seems to suggest a sizable downturn in the prices of High end watches right now…

My thought is that fine art and prized articles of fashion are always in demand... demand ebbs and flows, the dawgs may bark but the caravan continues kind of thing ~ interesting to keep track of
the details. Maybe this is an opportunity to buy a few things at better prices for those that may be interested.
 
Bumping from page 8. Board is slipping, badly. I got the Miltat "strapcode" gold jubilee for my Seiko Golden Turtle.

Apparently this watch was discontinued and somehow now sells for double what I paid. Not a big chunk of change, but interesting to see.
 
@Swaye .... you follow this guy on youtube? I find him interesting. Not that i'm into the market ... I struggle to consider buying a Casioak ... lol.
 
I have a major boner for this Christopher Ward Moonphase. Similar to the H Moser, but at 10% of the cost.

Where are the numbers? How am I supposed to tell what time it is?

That's not what this one is about, fren.

I’ve always been obsessed with lunar watches. (Helps me calculate the tides and the most auspicious time to cast hexing spells on my enemies.)

@YellowSnow does have a point about them not being practical, but that design is so clean and beautiful any other design elements would mess it up.

 
Was eyeing this for awhile as a cheapo alternative to the "Mission to Uranus" moonswatch that I've given up on buying. Made from ocean plastic or something like that, supposedly. I just wanted a cheap, blue watch. Very comfortable, but the quartz movement is hilariously louder than any other watch I've ever held.
And, yes, that's a shadow of my BBC at the bottom of the pic.

Are moonswatchs still hard to find?
Can only buy them at Swatch stores. Nearest to me is Canada. They also quit making the Uranus one due to the color from the plastic transferring to skin. Maybe they're making it again, not sure. On ebay they're still laughably overpriced.
 
You may try /watchexchange on Reddit. I’ve had success using it to buy and sell over the years. Actually looks like someone sold a Uranus for $280 last month.
