What's everyone's thought on the new Hodinkee Shop or its new approach?

Selling/Buying watches definitely seems interesting at least for vintage pieces.
I tend to like the transparent approach they are taking about selling something that is honest.

I think they have built up a large enough following where the vintage watch shop will do very well. I went on for a second time this afternoon and a large number of the vintage pieces have sold including the Daytona.

A lot of us saw it coming, when they did the limited edition MB&F you knew it would be sooner than later. Good for them. What concerns me is if they receive a vintage "something" then do a puff piece on it and sell it for more $$$.

A bit florid in the actual descriptions - but to be expected. I'd say some of our trusted sellers here do better in just stating the facts.

They can't even publish the length of their leather straps??

Hmmm...they just sold a 1989 Sub 5513 for $8,000.

"This later version is desirable because it is the transitional model between the 5513 and the 14060."

Interesting.

Speedy was pretty nice. Sold quick!

Might as well capitalize on the market they fiddle with
