Purchased this beaut last night: Sea-gull homage

Have wanted this one for a min. The classic lines and it's simplicity.:ohlawd:

Gonna change the bracelet to a dark brown strap.:wow:

Think I'm "done" for a minute. After I sell my Tiger Concept Submariner, I will have all my "watch bases" covered.

Jomashop got the Glycine Airman Double Twelve for $375. With the Golden eye on the way, I'm trying real hard not to cop.

The vintage is fantastic.

Really distinguished look to it.

Problem is (i know its minor) but the 19% tax, and 30dollar shipping is annoying.

But they are built extremely well and very comparable to Omega Seamaster/Rolex Subs but you know the prestige associated with those 2 names.
I just ordered a OVM direct from Steinhart, and didn't have to pay that 19% tax. it went away when I selected shipping to the US, so I guess that tax is only if you order to Europe (or just Germany?). cost with shipping ended up being cheaper than Gnomon Watches :ehh:

OVM came today. shyt is nice. that domed sapphire :ohlawd:

crazy thing is I ordered it wednesday night, from Germany, and FedEx tried to deliver it friday morning (I was at work). shout out to Steinhart for not fukking around with the shipping :salute:

it's the 'new' OVM, and the dial is not quite black. I like how it looks with the 'old radium'. pics soon

Brehs, where can i get the casio duro for cheap online for brehs that live in Africa??. This other local online supplier that orders from the US will charge me a total of $168 for the watch and this cost includes the watch price, shipping and customs costs. Them numbers dont look nice to me :lupe: given that the watch costs about $50 :martin:. I really like the watch but its a pity that they don't sell it locally so I gotta online.

Help a breh out of being finessed by these online shops :mjcry:

So I pulled the trigger and ordered the Casio duro for an equivalent of $88. The local online site I ordered from gets supplies from the US. I pray Id ont get scammed and my watch arrives no more than a month from now :lupe:


also what y'all think bout the Casio A168W-1 ?
