EBB 25 Posted June 12, 2018 How can you put that invicta in the same box as the speedy?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indianajones 5 Posted June 12, 2018 How can you put that invicta in the same box as the speedy?! It's got an ETA 2824 and it's not a monstrosity like some of their other watches. But I can see where your coming from. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk I really respect your choice to go with a speedy, the history, movement quality. Most newbies go with a rolex . Speedies are for the real enthusiasts. In my opinion, most iconic chronograph. What's the next gen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my opinion, most iconic chronograph. What's the next gen?Thanks for your comment! I spent a lot of time trying to find something reflective of watch history, looked awesome and wasn't completely out of reach financially. I feel like I need to purchase a gen for every replica I have. In the order of things I think I want a Submariner, or the numbered edition of the first omega in space. I know it's a little redundant since I have a speedy. While I'll be saving for several years, I will likely change my mind as time goes on with more exposure to interesting pieces.Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you get yourself a ruby pinkie ring along with that? And perhaps a white, Persian cat? I'm on to you King Lux, so don't try anything funny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk I'm taking a similar path, for every rep, I want to have a gen, I like that plan. Have you looked into gen Tudor? I recently picked up the Heritage black bay, really special. ( Edited June 12, 2018 by EBB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FoxWilde 155 Posted July 7, 2018 Another College kid????? I thought I was the only one!! No one has bothered me about a University Sophomore wearing Pateks and Rolexes to class. Guess it really is a high niche hobby... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I feel like few people are into watches like we are at our age. Few can afford it. But that's why we're here on rep forums too.
