    Any why I have not regularly been wearing my recognizable/expensive watches for about 2 years and am considering selling them all. We have had a few recent brazen watch thefts even in the sleepy/boring area that is called the Upper East side of Manhattan/NYC. It's a shame because for more than 25 years (circa 1994 to 2019), I wore my 16570 Rolex Explorer II Polar every day and even all over the world.

    I would like one of the old Rolex Tiffany faces.

    Sotheby's had a watch auction on the 12th. You can still see the online catalog, and if you have a login account, you can see the results.

    Patek's are always nice.

    Best watch line I've heard in a while came from my neighbor while lamenting his hard to read watch.

    Either date wheels/windows/displays are getting smaller or I am getting older (or maybe both) but this is my new favorite diver without a date function.

    That's great. I have two submariners. One with a date and one without. I much prefer the one without. The only reason I don't sell the one with the date is that it's green.

    There is never a reason to sell a hulk.

    Hulk really is pretty damn cool, in my opinion. One of the very few green dials I like.

    As much as I love my BB58, and I know it looks better without a date, but I'd have gotten it with a date if it was offered. It's super practical. Not for diving, but, I'm not diving.

    New DW-6900 crazy color with a bezel and strap/bracelet swap. It's big, it's bright, my kiddo will love it.
