That speedy panda is dope, kinda wish mine was a panda now.
And the royal Oak too. That's a grail piece for me
Love the panda look for sure!
It's actually just a 3570.50 fitted with a Mitsukoshi dial. Real Mitsukoshis have astronomical prices though, having only 300 pieces produced for the Japanese market back in 2003. Think I'll settle for mine I suspected that might be the case, but I didn't want to ask lolLove the panda look for sure!
Those dial conversions still cost a fair bit right?
Honestly, I doubt anyone would be wearing their 3570.31 if they had one
These days a bit more I guess, depending on how good a deal one can find for those dial and hands.

Amazing these don't change much over the years.
I inherited this from my grandfather. Have the original box & paperwork from 1961

I'm a huge fan of Snoopy and I just showed my wife this watch and she said, "So what chips are you going to sell?" LOLMe too. I'm just working out how many sets I'd need to sell
Mine said the same. I told her the price and she said I'd have to sell all my chips and my speedy to pay for it.
Guess the good news is she doesn't know exactly how much my chips are worth
Awesome! Didn't realize we had a thread for this, but not surprised; clicking watch on a watch thread feels right. I'll probably post some of mine later.
What is the price tag on this beauty?
I was told $14.7k AUD by a friend. No clue about Amercian but maybe $10k? Total guess.
Pricey though for an omega.

Good guesstimate.
US$9,600

Yeah, almost a decade ago when Omegas were around the same price as Tags I had an opportunity for one I liked, but ended up going with a Montblanc I loved instead. I don't regret it at all but it is crazy how much they skyrocketed in a short period of time.

Daily wear. Bought in 1996 when I was working abroad and needed to deal with multiple time zones.
And the watch I wear with a suit. Bought a few years ago to celebrate my 50th a bit early:

Yeah. I bought my Seamaster waaaay back in the day, when it was just ever so slightly more than a Tag. It's like 3x-4x the price now.
Just picked this up. I am also waiting for a modern GMT that I hope comes in soon. This one is from 2006. The one on display had the Pepsi insert and the store sold me the black/red insert as well and put it on. Sort of like having two watches in one.
I kinda miss wearing a watch. My favourite was a titanium Swiss Army watch, though I somehow managed to finally break it. Second favourite is my old Movado Esperanza watch on the rare occasions I get to play dress-up.
Soon I'll be getting a Bulova as a gift for 25 years of employment in my local health authority. Definitely one of the cheaper models, but you can't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Put it in rice lol
Glad I came across this, I found my autowinder wasn't working and my sub was sitting idle. Can see the differnce between 40 and 42 mm, though looking at the pic the breiting looks large compared to my wrist- just the angle of the pic becuase it isn't that large on my wrist. I love the Breitling, I don't have to worry about beating it up like I do the sub. Built like a tank and 1/3 the price.

Rolexes, it seems, are more jewels than anything else. Less precise than your phone, too.
I wear mine for wading in the water, but not for serious swimming (which I am not capable of, anyway, but that is NOT the point)
