Anyone in Chicago have recommendations for places to watch shop? Looking in the few hundred $ range. In the city today and disappointed by the selection at Nordstrom and I’m pretty sure Macy’s closed.

I’d get out of the department stores and into the watch shops. Not from CHI, but in that range you can find some real solid Seikos and Hamilton’s. The automatic Tissot PRX is coming soon too, but I don’t know the price.

Post it on the wrist, A1!

Looking to shop in person. Not dying to make a purchase just looking to explore

Costco / Apple store / maybe your local mall has a small jewelry store that carries a lot of brands

The State Street Macy’s is still open, and probably has a bigger watch selection than the water tower place store ever had (it was kind of a dump). Saks carries some brands in that price range on the 7th floor. You could also try watch stores like Legend of Time or Swiss Fine Timing, but they might skew higher end.

I second Macy’s downtown. I bought a Hamilton there 10 years ago.

If your budget is a few hundred and you don’t already know what you’d like, it might be hard to find a one-stop destination to try everything in your price range. I recommend looking at YouTube videos to narrow your options and then identify retailers in your area that carry those watches

My dad has an Armani watch that was in the couple hundred $$$ range that I think looks 🔥. Idk where to look but that’s a brand worth checking out. I personally love Fossil but it’ll be on the lower end and mass produced side of your budget.

Check out the mall and anchor stores. Likely looking at citizen, tissot, seiko, maybe Doxa, and others what people mentioned

Finally got my hands on one. I was expecting it to feel much cheaper than it does. Definitely still get the quality feel that Swatch is known for. The weight is nothing like a real speedy, but still looks great imo. I went with the Mission to Pluto as I didn’t want one that looks too much like the real thing, and the Mars/Sun versions had the gauche white strap imo. Overall pleased for $260.

Anyone looking to buy a Rolex Datejust 126334 fluted bezel, Azzuro Blue on Jubilee? Few weeks old, almost like new. Thinking about selling it for $11k (less than what I paid with taxes) since I don’t like flippers in our hobby.

Super beautiful watch, just thinking it’s a bit flashy for me.

30th birthday present watch accessory ideas.

A lot of knowledge on here so asking for some help. It’s my partner’s birthday and I’ve no idea what to buy him. He’s a watch fanatic - Pateks (sports and dress), Audemars (sports and dress), Rolex (sports), Omega (sports).

I’m obviously not buying him a watch for his birthday (in his dreams!) but any idea for some good accessories? He’s already got a PP watch winder, and has bought multiple nice straps for the dress watches. I’m completely lost.

What’s the best thing I could buy for my old man’s birthday for about $10k? Would go Rolex (since he knows Rolex) but would prefer new, which limits my options there. Looking for something a little sporty, with a bracelet, and waterproof (100m should suffice). Nothing bombastic like a Panerai, but something a little more exciting than say a Datejust? And not Grand Seiko - he’s gonna think it’s like $50 and lose it :(
