Looking to get my father a birthday gift. He has always been a Rolex, stainless steel only, guy. I have a budget of up to 40k which opens the door to other brands. Vacheron oversees immediately comes to mind, but wanted to get the bowl’s thoughts. (He currently has a nautilus, Batman, Kermit, sea dweller, luminor, el primero).

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

Just curious are there any EAs in the Las Vegas, NV area and what are your salaries?

Associate at an AmLaw 100 firm doing patent work. I applied to a part time masters program to try to pivot to a different technical field (still doing patent work, but in something that interests me more than what I’m doing now). Do I try to stick it out at the firm while getting the masters, ask for a reduced hours schedule, or get a part time, non-legal job so I can focus more on the program (one year).

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.

Starting to restore old watches as a hobby (not for profit). Any suggestions where I can buy some pieces which need repair / service? I am still learning. So it doesn’t have to be fancy. I tried eBay and Chrono24 but didn’t have much luck. Feel free to recommend a local store in NYC.

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? Do I need a relationship with an AD in today’s market for a Sub or GMT? Based in Seattle but would prefer to buy in Oregon to avoid taxes

Does anyone else think Rolex should put display backs on their Datejust?

Aqua terra or datejust 41? I know v different watches but just wanted to get the group think on this
