I finally picked up my first omega. Not a speedmaster but a white dial seamaster and I'm in love. Glad to be here for the million and I hope to be here for the 2 million. Much Love - TWT

The Grand Seiko 9F quartz is an even better value proposition than the spring drive. It's a completely in-house movement, and GS even grows their own quartz crystals and makes their own conductors. The computer chip scans the air over 500 times a day to adjust for any temperature changes. GS says it's accurate to 10 seconds a year, but everyone swears it's not even off by a single second which is insane to think about. I'm seriously going for this over a spring drive. With a reasonable discount, you can easily get one for below $2,000, and they come with the same dials and craftmanship as any other GS. Seriously a no-brainer. (and congrats on 1 million Teddy!)

I think Teddy B is well aware of the facts behind the 9F.
@HughesEnterprises3 ай бұрын
Agreed, have an SBGV245 and the only reason it’s not accurate to the second is when I have to adjust it for DST twice a year. Scary accurate.

I have some experience with going to expensive watch stores, they are usually very welcoming and just want you to have a good time, they will get every watch you want to try from the lockers, sit down with you and let you try em out and chat about them. I've even specified that I won't be able to buy any of them, but they just deflected it by saying the most important part of a buying decision is to try watches on your wrist, see them, feel them. Pictures on internet and youtube can only show a 2d representation, and pics can vary in colour density depending on who photoshopped them afterwards . I've never had a bad comment when I said I couldn't afford to buy this speedmaster I'm trying on. They even encouraged me to take wrist shots. The most important thing is to be respectful of the staff and showing interest, not just "no i'm just browsing" when they come to ask if you need help. Engage with them, and you get a GREAT experience. One clerk said I wasn't wasting his time at all, most customers want to come to a store and try different things, before making a decision maybe days or weeks later, it's fine. But of course, be reasonable and don't lock down an employee for 2 hours when you don't plan on buying anything at all. Also if the store has no customers at that time period they seem more than happy to just chat with you about watches and show you around the store. Makes the day less boring.

Best part of having a watch collection, I am finding now, is taking moments of extended time when you just enjoy what you have -each one individually, without chasing anything new. Yeah, those "moment" won't last forever, and you'll eventually want something new - taste change, models or fashions change, but those moments make watches worth having.

I'm happy to see Teddy grow to what he is now. I got into mechanical movements because of Teddy's gateway video he posted a long time ago about Orient. I ended up picking the Orient Maestro. I fell in love with the mechanical watches and picked up a Hamilton soon after. I haven't bought another watch for another 4 years since I really loved the Hamilton but just recently got the JLC Polaris with green dial and love it more than the Hamilton. I'm probably not going to buy another watch for awhile but will be saving up for my end game watch which is a patek Philippe. Cheers Teddy!

After calculating all the other good things i need to do with this money and bills etc... i decided i cannot treat myself in this way which made me sad for a day or so but then it got me thinking about my collection now and how much i really do love and appreciate it. As affordable as my collection is im ok with that. For now at least :) one day i hope to get the dream watch its just not the right time yet.

Its actually kind of funny you mention trying a watch on that you're not going to buy just yet because my first time going to a boutique I was looking at the green aqua terra, because I wanted to compare it to a grand seiko I was looking at. I tell them up front, hey I'm here to browse and understand my options, and they were extremely friendly and understanding. They hand me the watch and I look to the window, hoping for some direct sunlight. No dice. I hand the watch back to them and explain my hang up. The guy looks me dead in the eye and says, just take it outside (this is a single branch jeweler on a main street in a small town). I start laughing and thinking this guy is either really trusting or a moron. I point out I could just run away with it, he just laughs, and I go outside with this beautiful watch, I start playing with the angles and the sunlight, and my god the green dial just pops beautifully, I go back inside and hand the watch back, this guy starts pulling out other watches for me examine in direct light, knowing full well I'm not buying. Really cool guys, but be up front with them. I'm saving up for a 41mm green aqua terra, mostly because I got the opportunity to be outside with it and appreciate it.
