I like that a lot

That is pretty disappointing, always was a fan of Panerai's had hoped one would be my next major acquisition.

This Uniform Wares 250 series is a pretty nice and classic dress watch, Swiss ETA movement, sapphire crystal and not much more than $500.

Panerai scandal:

They're putting knockoff level movements in their $5-9000 watches now.

This is an unstamped undecorated standard factory movement that would be in a replica or $200 watch.

Unheard of from any reputable watchmaker.

:(

I used to be against buying replicas but when it comes to Panerai I say go crazy, your replica may have better internals than the real thing!!! This is like buying a brand new Ferrari and under the hood it has the engine from a Golf.

Got myself a seiko from the states.. It was on a ridiculous sale I couldn't pass up. Has timezones, an alarm and tachymeter.. It's a good start for a daily.. That U-Boat classico above is sexy as hell!

I just checked through most of their site, hah hah. I'm trying to scope out a new ceramic watch, with a minimalistic face, for a reasonable dollar.

Re: Watch Aficionados?

watchismo is good for mainstream watches

Re: Watch Aficionados?

So for you guys who buy watches online, what're your favourite sites to check out?

There was one I've forgotten, time something was in the name (I think).

Cool looking Nano Watch Strap.

Re: Watch Aficionados?

I hope that radioactive dial gives me cool superpowers. The exoskeletal look keep getting more and more exaggerated with these new designs.

A change of pace?

A new exclusive Hublot that none of us will be able to afford, but fairly cool looking as seems watches are getting a bit more abstract at the moment.

Re: Watch Aficionados?

Why thank you! I should have specified that I haven't found a local retailer recently.

This was the one I was mentioning earlier.
