Saw this on Reddit. Don't see DJs on after market straps very often. I think it's a pretty good casual look.
Looks great on that strap. My DJ says hi.

Love you, too, boo boo.Not surprising that the one time you agree with foo, you end up being totally, absolutely, unmistakably wrong-headed. You also dialed in the perfect amount of provoke-by-calling-an-obviously-not-trash-watchmaker-trash vibe. Maybe you guys are more alike then anyone might have previously suspected? ;-)
And that probably explains why his watches aren't fat as ****.
Developing a besic movement is easy. With modern CAD software it's easy to even develop something like a tourbillon. Manufacturing is hard, thought. So if someone designs and develops a movement in house but outsources manufacturing he can still legitimately clan an in house movementAs of the past couple of months, Rexhep has said in interviews that they are now “developing” their movements in-house—code for decorating and maybe assembling movements that are made elsewhere, which Akrivia may have had a hand in specifying. Super shady ****.

Out of curiosity, what are some examples of the particular independents or models that you're referencing with this comment?Just watch. Most of these hot independents will be forgotten 10 years from now. And people will look back at the more obnoxiously designed examples with disgusted amusement.
The vintage is stunning. Is there anything in the modern collection or plans that approach its proportions?
So is the minute repeater, think this is about 1930. View attachment 1737812
@TheFoo - to follow up, did you end up taking your watch to the Henri Stern Agency?
Turns out Patek's case work is also pedestrian ?Well, I seemingly got my answer: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=837750

Nice. Sadly the one I posted isn't mine; I found it on Reddit.Looks great on that strap. My DJ says hi.
Of the various "modern" independents, RM is definitely the most likely to be remembered in 100 years, if only for its list of customers. It will definitely outlast Dufour, except in the mind of a handful of particularly literate collectors.Does anyone honestly believe that Richard Mille thinks their watches are timeless?
I’m not so sure about that. The RM list of customers will be as irrelevant as the time thingies in 100 years.Of the various "modern" independents, RM is definitely the most likely to be remembered in 100 years, if only for its list of customers.
