I had a Portofino, a Fliegerchronograph and A Doppelchronograph and last week I sold my Cal 89 1955 18k gold dresswatch...

My father used to own a 18k Portugieser chrono, a MkX, XII and XV.

Sold them all.

It's CASIO TIME


(My father is a professional watchmaker wearing a JLC Master Calendar, and I have a Sub Date SS and a JLC Compressor Chrono fwiw )

I wear my Tags for every day living because I'm not worried about them.

My PP only comes out for special occasions, because it is the piece that I would eventually like to pass down to my son if I ever have one.

I have a Breitling B1 and although it was heavy at first, I got used to it quite rapidly. I don't think it is any bigger in diameter than my Citizen Navihawk but it certainly is thicker, 16mm vs. 9mm.

If prices are that good, you can make some good money reselling on ebay.

the problem with ebay is that there are so many fakes floating around there......I personally wouldn't buy a high-priced luxury item from ebay (especially one that has been imitated so profusely) so I don't think others will either.

Well that all depends. If you know what your doing and you know your watches, there should be no problem.
