Watchlords

If I hadn't bought a Riseman, a Giez and a Seiko Alpinist while shopping under the influence, this baby would be mine! I can't decide, Blue or gray?

The blue's the one I'd pick. It gives me a very thick, ropey boner.

I still think the Alpinist you picked up is a winner, though. You ever want to get rid of it, drop me a line. I really think that's one of the best watches Seiko's come out with in the last ten years.

Not sure I like it that much to pay $1,100 for it....

Grey or gray. I prefer grey. It how the euro trash rolls. Yo!

Tough choice. I like them both but would pick the Gray only because I have a few diver's with blue dials.
I love my Silver Dial Chrono.
There was a thread started over on WUS. The OP was able to purchase for $950.

I think you should shop under the influence again and buy both. (Smileys are not showing up on my tablet)
Blue or silver would be nice. I have a couple of nice blues, so I would probably go with the silver.

It seems like any watch over 1000.00 stops me cold. One of these days I will break that feeling I think, and when I do,,,

I say go grey. And damnit, Conjoinererwr, I already have dibs on that Alpinist for the flip!

Well, my suggestion is to pick up a nice used Omega PO. Best $2K+ I have ever spent and would do it again in a heartbeat, thank you Juan!
That Ball Marvelight didn't make me blink at $1500.
It gets easier as you do it more...

Blue for me.

Both get my vote, nice lookin watches

Don't damage the bezel insert.

Not bad, not bad at all. Sort of like a Seiko 5 with a better movement. Prove is crazy now, but should settle over time.

sorry, nevermind
