Actually, it was the idea that I could get ANY watch for 30 bucks that made me wonder about the REAL watches (pieces of art) that I would get if I didn't have to consider price.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
My favorite high-end watches are from Lange & Sohne or Vacheron Constantin. Most would pick Patek and any big collector should have a few of them.

Invicta Signature Russian Diver
Men's Invicta Lefty Russian Diver Invicta Lefty Russian Diver Black Sort of wedding present to myself. I'm thinking the 1st one, or the 2nd one more than the 3rd. They're all pretty cheap too. |

We had a client who wanted to design something similiar with belts, but the inital tooling cost was more than he could afford. I'd love to see this watch mass-produced!

Later this month I'm going to see what kind of watch I can trade my 6 month old $1000 wedding band in for.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
RD = Russian Diver, the style of that watch. Of course the crown is what sets the time and the RD's have a large canteen shaped cap that screws on over the crown. Depending on the watch and your build, from time to time they can dig into the back of your hand a bit.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Well, i have been a "leathersmith" for 2 weeks now (lol).
Here'swhat I have come up with thus far.they are either 24mm or 26mm and SUPER long. I guess I started making them because i needed long straps. Most are about 85mm + 155mm [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/s15driftking/STRAP3-1.jpg

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Nice looking watch, for a non-conventional looking watch. What kills me is these manufacturers putting rubber straps, with their name stamped in, on multi thousand dollar watches. I bought an Invicta years ago that came with a rubber strap and I changed it to a leather strap and it looks 1000x better.
