Just got promoted to SM at D. What’s an appropriate watch to gift myself? I used to think Suby but they’re way overpriced with box and papers in the current environment and I just don’t see the value with the number of people wearing them

What do you actually like about watches? Want something dressy, sporty? A cool complication? An asteroid/other unique material dial? Don't start with a brand, start with your heart.

I’d add to this—start with what you’d wear. Too often I lust after watches but don’t consider their practicality. So 100% do something that you’ll love but also one that’ll get wrist time.

Currently have a speedy reduced, a Tissot prx, a Hamilton khaki Murphy’s, and a black bay 58

What's ya budget and style? Sports model? Dress? Since you mentioned sub, assuming $15k or so, Zenith, GO, JLC.. Go grey if you want a deal. Alot of options.

Get something vintage. I made AP this week and looking for a vintage gold Omega.

IWC Portugieser was my SM promo watch

Ya go vintage. So much good stuff out there. Newer watches all seem to converge on the same features and function.

You get more individuality with vintage.

Hello All,

I bought CER006 on Nov 21 with my current company email id and completed one certification. I am leaving my current organization and I still have 9+ months time left for CER006. My company says the s user id provided by them will get de-activated once I leave (in a week). I have not claimed the amount also. Is there any way I can transfer the certification to my personal email I'd so that I can write other exams in time left?

CTR, contracts and department overhaul

our marketing dept is undergoing a complete overhaul. under old leadership, a $75k 12-mo contract was signed to a marketing group that handles our SEO, blog and everything Google Ads. All things I can and am in training to do. Current CTRs on G ads seem pitiful at no more than 0.75%. My meta ads coast around 4-6%. During this overhaul, would it be wise to not renew our contract, and negotiate for me to take over these roles and leverage a raise?

Alright this bowl has convinced me I need to buy a Rolex. Where do I begin? I know my brother got a Batman GMT after about a year at a jeweler he never purchased from a few years ago, but was he just lucky?

Looking to buy my fiancé the Speedmaster Racing current edition as an engagement watch. It’s listed as $8,750 on Omega’s website; Geneva Seal (in Chi where we live) quoted me $8,200 all-in & they’ll cover tax; my jeweler knows a watch broker in NY who quoted me $8,250. I’m not at all familiar with this process so 1) can anyone recommend a better venue for this purchase? 2) are any of the quotes I’ve gotten so far good? (My friend’s watch guy said brokers can get Omegas up to 36% off retail?)
