Really good question. Following this thread. I’m looking to buy a new sports model right at $10,000. I’m actually thinking the Panerai submersible. MSRP is overpriced but can easily get 15-20% off from ADs and probably closer to 30% off if lightly preowned. Can’t really think of anything better. The Rolex sport models (Sub, gmt, Daytona) are impossible to get for under $10k so I’m not considering those. The Omega planet ocean is a contender but I think those are well under $10k. I’ve been interested in learning more about the Octo Finisimo recently (slightly over budget) but a beautiful GG design that may rival the royal oak and nautilus one day.

I like the submersible. Octo not so much...

Every morning I wake up at 5. This guarantees me 45 minutes of quiet time. This time is reserved for me, selfishly! It is used for me, selfishly! It looks different each morning.

• Some mornings I jog.
• Some mornings I start to jog, give up, & go eat a snack cake.
• Sometimes I read.
• Some days I sit in the shower & let the water hit my face like rain.
•Other mornings I selfishly make my wife coffee, & fold laundry.

The point is, the time is mine! When is your time? When do you make time?

Looking to get a new watch, been digging Seiko because i am cheap AF and thought the price:style:value was worth it. Question to any seiko owners, are all Seiko Presages created equal? I saw the list pinned to channel and it was a specific type (i.e., not sure if that meant it retained the best value or was most popular). Edumacate me friends!
