Thinking of copping a bell and ross diver that cost 2800 with a 1500 down payment and the rest on interest free finance paying 54 a month over 2 years, not bad :ehh::ehh::ehh:

Don't know if it was already discussed in the thread, but what are y'all aficionado's opinion on Shinola?

I have a Burberry and a Skagen currently, I feel like a Shinola would be a nice addition to round out my rotation until I can step up to a more premium timepiece.

Really digging this one, The Canfield Chrono 43mm

I wouldn't do it, I understand if you like the look but it's not worth the money. It's a quartz watch going for almost $1000. If you wait and save up another $1000 you could get a quality Swiss mechanical on the second hand market, instead of wasting that money on a Shinola (since you already have plans to step up to more premium watches).

Breh I would just save up and cop it when you can afford to pay cash. Possibly get a discount and more importantly not have a monthly direct debit

Know what you mean but i dont think i can get a discount, plus financially its more feasable paying monthly coz it would burn too much of a hole in my pockets if a paid in full

Been eyeing for a week. May do it... thoughts??
Personally not a fan, but if you are you're in luck because they depreciate a lot and can be found for cheap. Brown dial and sun brown dial used have been posted/sold for $1050 and $750.

I like the chrono flyback look better but those are 44mm and more expensive.

I know Tudor is famous for the Black Bay and Pelagos.

But the blue faced fluted bezel Style is a beauty brehs.

2000 dollars. Datejust without the price tag :jbhmm:
You just have to be ready to explain to people what Tudor is when they keep constantly asking you "is that a Rolex?" :lolbron:
