Hello fellow watch fans,

I’m new to Austin, TX but would like to get in the line for a Rolex (hopefully a root beer). Anyone recommend a dealer in the area?

Thank you in advance!

Join a waitlist then drive around Austin and by the time you get out of traffic, your watch will be ready.

You should check out Austin’s Redbar. Pretty good scene, local meetups, etc. More than one person there is capable of connecting you, probably to Ben Bridge or Timeless, er “Watches of Switzerland”

Very cool. Thank you!

Used to be local (~2015) and bought a few pieces from Ben Bridge at the Domain. The rep I worked with was named Roland and he was great. I don’t know if the shop or rep are still there, but hopefully can be of some help.

Side note - the root beer is tough for even the best ADs and highest purchase histories.

Thank you! Yes, after more research this may not be doable for me.

Yale SOM (no $) or Johnson with a full ride? Goal is consulting (not MBB or bust but MBB is the target) in New York City. Will have to take out nearly full tuition loan for Yale. Concerned about Johnson’s strength in consulting placement even for T2; seems to have mixed reviews. Could also reapply this fall and add Tuck and Kellogg to the mix but unsure if it’s worth the risk as this fall may be very competitive.

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!
