By now I just assume that every Submariner I see is a fake. No way that many people waited 3 years or spent $13,500 on one

When I bought my Hulk, it was a gift to myself with my BCG signing bonus 10-ish years ago. I paid retail for it, lightly used. The bubble is a relatively recent occurrence.

Any thoughts?

Put the Merci on a Forstner Klip bracelet and I love it. Should mention that the bracelet shipped with spring bars that were a fraction of a millimeter too large, but I had other spring bars I was able to use. Other than that happy with the quality and the look.

Hey y’all. Would love to get some thoughts from people about buying vintage watches and what resources you might use to evaluate a piece before you buy.

I’ve only ever bought new watches but am in love with some vintage pieces. I’m not really sure where to start with resources to do my due diligence and ensure I’m not massively over paying or buying something that no watch maker today could really service.

Would love some thoughts from the bowl on any vintage buys y’all have done.

Thanks!

Was just offered this by my AD. If I take it will my chances of getting a sub or GMT go up or down? EDIT adding context:
Originally mentioned I wanted a DJ (blue,black,green,wimby) but preferred Sub or GMT. Trying to understand if I buy this am I building social capital or spending it since it’s adding purchase but the watch is still in demand.
