I really like some other stuff. If you compare it to a brand like Longines, I think a lot of their pieces look better. The only problem if you can call it a problem is that many people haven’t heard of it. They make really nice well-made dress watches at a great price. What’s not to like?

Their tendency to put out 40mm dress watches is my personal issue. If they had more in the 37mm range I would probably have owned one for some time now.

I think there must be a reason FC can often be found at steep discounts. But if you like it, why not? Especially at these price points.

They've got some nice, well made dress watches. They're inexpensive because they're basically the luxury cousin of Citizen, and use Citizen movements.

Has anyone seen Omega’s new Seamaster? Thoughts? I mean the only thing that’s stopped me from going 20,000 ft underwater is the right watch…unfortunately at 45.5mm in diameter and 56mm lug to lug, it’s too big for my small wrists. Oh well, guess I won’t be going underwater. Just kidding haha - I think it’s cool and I do like that they ditched the HEV

For you experts... I’m a first-timer (pun!) buying lux watches. I’m looking at an updated model of a JSC (geographic), to be released sometime Q4 this year. MSRP is 12k few questions:
1) what is realistic price ballpark from an AD (I’m not in a hurry)
2) any advice for reaching out to ADs, especially given this isn’t yet released? I.e., any common mistakes to avoid?
3) MSRP includes leather strap, and looking at current model prices, metal strap adds ~2k to price. Sound right?

Thank you all!

The more I think about it the more I like the idea, so unless bowl leader shoots it down: let’s build him a watch. We can select a parts list, I’ll document the process, and then we can donate it in recognition of the work that goes into making this a great space.
