I want a chronograph with this flavor of vintage aesthetic.

Bonus points for a moonphase.

Any ideas for something modern with similar styling under 10k used?

You can find JLC master control calendar chronographs for about 15k used and given this market, you can probably squeeze them down to 10k.

And speaking of this market, I think Biver is about 5 years too late asking $85k for this.

Man that whole brand is so disappointing.

I am a big JCB fan as his work from a business perspective is really cool.

But his new brand feels so uninspired and lazy.

A little late now trying to flip them. Should’ve did it 2 years ago
Can't blame them, though. I doubt anyone in that band except Bruno Mars lives in an UMC Manhattan apartment. They definitely have their kids in - get this - PUBLIC SCHOOLS. So, good for them. Sell the b*tches.

Grand Seiko releases the SGLW004 and SLGW005 inspired by their 45GS from 1968.

A really gorgeous watch perfectly reflecting the brand's aesthetic language and high technical skills.

would someone explain ? why can't modern movements fit inside vintage cases ? or is it simply catering to the market
