Here's the Seiko I'm rocking.

My dad gave it to me a while ago... I'm not sure about the exact build or model, but it does run on one of those kinetic generators or whatever. (Just shake, haha.)

It used to have a leather band, but I changed it because the humidity in Asia destroyed it...have yet to change it back to leather.

gus here the dilema!

brand new panerai luminor marina pam 104

or

used rolex daytona 2 tone black face?

[PandaDenim]

Panerai.

[ericdw]

i'd go with the pan too, but only b/c the daytona is twotone. i hate that shit.

[edmond]

buit the rolex is way more expensive?

[ProfMonnitoff]

i dont like panerai in general

but im not really feelin that particular rolex either

(know this is a picture of a replica but whatever)

if u want a rolex get a submariner or a gmt-master

[Egpt]

i don't really like rolex but my father wears one daily, even goes hunting with it, and that thing doesn't have a single scratch on it and never had any problem. sturdy as hell.

[freecat]

very reliable for the price for sure.

i'm not a huge fan of the daytona, the only thing is that it's commonly known as being ballin. here's the only one i like:

[edmond]

problem with pam is that everyones been wearing pam in hk and in manila nowadays.. and theyre priced half of the daytona..

if you ever feel like having a matte black pvd treated rolex, there's an english (i reckon) website that does it, and it cost like only twice the price.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

funny i just put my sinn 656s on a black maratac zulu w/ pvd hardware for low lite ops

serious biz

[edmond]

so your with the german ksk now diddles?

[denimdestroyedmylife]

ha not really, black

[edmond]

ohh yes you are some sort of a israela sayaret golani / maskal trooper eh?

[ken shinoda]

get the daytona, ed.

fetch a better price, should you decide to flip it one day in macau or vegas.

[edmond]

yeah ill be going with the daytona.. hmmm

[therelativity]

currently rocking a tibor kalman watch.

gotta admit I like the look of that timex x j. crew, but wouldn't mind something cheaper. thoughts?

, same here:

[edmond]

guys help me whats worth it in the long run?

looks/price/collectability

or

or

so what boys??

[fre-co]

out of those three, I'd have the middle one eddie. The others are kinda ugly imo.

[dunkin deeznuts]

IMO, considering Edmonds style and his desire for collectabililty, i have to go with the Rolex. I'm not a fan of two-tone metals but if Ed likes it, I think that would fit into his style alot better than the other two. Plus a Rolex is going to hold its value and be alot easier to resell than the other two.

I just got a new watch today that I'm very happy with

[Guest jmatsu]

the roly is sooo chinese. ed gotta represent, but the coultre is probably the most versatile.

[homi29]

for edmond id go with the rolex as well i think it fits best with his style

[Egpt]

a breguet would make no sense for a workwear/repro denim aesthetic, but it's the best looking watch of those 3. i know you're not considering them, but if i was considering buying a watch, before i would buy a daytona i would probably buy 5 different breitlings.

[dunkin deeznuts]

picked this up

IWC Ingeniuer AMG titanium chrono

PS no i dont own an AMG

[edmond]

thanks guys damn.. thats a nice piece DD...

its a close figt between the breguet and the lex

hit it right on the head. two-tone daytonas aren't all that attractive imo, and not my favorite of the three, but for collectability and price, it's one of the only watches that will resell close to retail no matter how old it is.

also - DD, lovin the Ingeniuer
