I like the look of the watch, though I've never totally gelled with the Everest link. A Rolex ascended Everest, but it didn't look anything like the Rolex Explorer that followed.

I get where your coming from with the Everest and Smith's links. I like the look and size and I doubt I'll have the money for a 1016atnits wrote: ↑Tue Feb 26, 2019 10:18 pmI like the look of the watch, though I've never totally gelled with the Everest link.

Way too slow to get one of these, on the wrong continent and don't think it's worth $600 when I've got the green but this looks great

I wouldn't be surprised if other colours are released at Baselworld next month and not be limited to supply via Hodinkee.
Current collection incl Citizen, G-Shock, Rolex, Seiko, Sinn & Tag.

Now that would be interesting if they did some new colours. My greens position in the collection might become unstable then

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
I’m not much of a Seiko fan (tried one, its now gone) but always quite liked the look of the Alpinist - the gold put me off it though. I’ve wondered a few times if they’d bring one out with steel hands etc... I’m not interested in buying one but, aesthetically, this one does look good. Not $600 good though.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
Seiko boutique (in Knightsbridge) price for the green Alpinist is £450 if i recall, thats ony $2 short of this blue LE. Thats not really bad value; especially considering the resle value is potentially instant profit.TigerChris wrote: ↑Wed Feb 27, 2019 10:05 pm I’m not much of a Seiko fan (tried one, its now gone) but always quite liked the look of the Alpinist - the gold put me off it though.

I miss all the great things that may never be.

Even though I'm skint, I'm still dreaming about other watches. Today (and I think for the first time ever) I'm dreaming of owning a 36mm Aqua Terra:

The new Tudor that they keep teasing on social media. Has to be a sub. Doesn’t it?

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
Still dreaming about the C60 COSC Acon I missed out on. The whole sobb story goes like this...Recieved the email for the 5 day sale, and was immediately smitten with the C60 COSC Acon. I need another day date as I work a 12 hr shift, Wed eve to Wed morn 80 hrs in 7 days and by 4am many times I literally don't know WHAT day it is. However, I just purchased my first new Rolex Datejust 41 in January and promised my wife I would try to contain myself, at least for the foreseeable future. Then I got the good news that a car repair I had budgeted for was going to come in under half(when has that ever happened). Taking that as devine intervention, I went straight home, ordered the watch, only to be informed by Scott 3 days later that CW had mistakenly oversold the watch on the website. I will be keeping my eyes open for any "buyers remorse".
Time and money? I’ve spent most of mine on booze and women. The rest I just wasted…

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
There's one on eBay at the moment, not sure if you're interested. Not mine and I have no affiliation with the seller, just a friendly heads up as I was looking for one of these beauties too but other things have restricted my purchasing power.watchaholic wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 6:20 pm Still dreaming about the C60 COSC Acon I missed out on.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
Thanks for the heads up. I have been checking daily, but have not been there today. Looking now. Did not know these were offered last fall. Thanks again. I'll post if I get it. Such a long way off. I am in the US.
