I wanted to get an all gold Nikon watch for my dad but I did a cop out when I seen the $400 price :russ:

I wanna cop a few g shocks black, blue, white... And then move into the more mature watches. Does anyone know where I can get deals on g shocks?

Yeam i'ma have to agree with this, i have enough blackface watches as it is...that orient though :yes::yes:

@Heafcliffe

That Panerai homage is dope, but that Orient

:whew:

I might be biased because I'm in the market for a good world automatic myself

Ok, folks, gotta question for you. The PAM homage (automatic, deployment clasp, new w/o tags) is $135 and the Orient (automatic, comes with a steel bracelet and a leather band, open caseback, box and papers) for $268.

With all that info, which one is more worth it?

Orient, those Japanese watchmakers are doing good things. But if you feel like you don't need the world time features go with the homage.

@Heafcliffe (late response)

those are all nice choices, but Orient's been producing PIFF in the wrist game for awhile. I'd go with the Orient.

IDK how you feel about "Sporty" or a "Tan Faced", but these are a few I was checking for

Orient STI TT0Z002B

Thanks for the input. Leaning towards the Orient too. Negotiating with the owner as we speak.

As for your selections, :ohhh: I see what you are doing.... each fit a certain mood :salute:. All would get wrist time esp the last one. Classic.

I just got into watches, only have two pieces so far

Armani SPORTIVO WATCH AR5890. This is my everyday piece, subtle but very detailed. LOVE IT.

My flashy piece. Its a big face and heavy, always get compliments on it. The watch is made by Daniel Steiger. Way cheaper than it looks but good quality.

My next pickup. Saw it while I was on KLM and ive been lusting over it ever since. Ill probably buy this as a bday present to myself. What yall think
