I hope this means that allocations are increasing!

Like, kind ask yourself whether you see yourself wearing this in the next 10 years. If you are not sure, do not take it.

Only buy what you love.

I never have flipped a watch, and I have many. If I tire of a watch, I gift it to a family member. I think the flipping has come to an end, with few exceptions (steel Daytona and Pepsi). I’m glad about that. Hopefully now those who really want a Rolex will have a chance.

Real nice. Looks good on your wrist.

I've been thinking about picking up a Khaki Field but read some have had issues with the movement. Wouldn't mind throwing some business the way of the local Seiko/Hamilton AD. How do you like yours?

And of course, congrats on the gorgeous TT Sub.

Thanks,
I like the Hamilton a lot. Got the 38 Titanium with the light green dial. Hamilton is owned by the Swatch group, so it uses an ETA movement. Should not be any problem. For a sub 1K watch, its a winner in my book.

Doubt that allocations have increased.

Demand has softened

This. We're the odd ones who collect watches but most people buy 1 watch for life. I think luxury goods saw a huge demand during the years following Covid so resellers jumped on the opportunity. I think between the economy and demand lightening, watches are actually starting to go to the people who have been waiting.

I've even bought a few watches on a walk in lately.

Congratulations on the Hamilton Khaki Field! Fantastic watch. I love mine.

[IFlyPlanes]

Congrats! I never liked the Bluesy when I saw it in pictures then saw one on a walk in. The way the dial explodes in the light sold me.

Long story short...I love my Bluesy haha.
