Even for this underrated Milgauss?? Have been viewing through watch thread and seem like most westerners is interested in this model rather than Asia side.
*
There were rumours that the Milgauss will get discontinued and replaced with a new model. So people started to buy it up. Plus, given its a steel model and the lack of stock for other models, some just buy it so they can say they have a Rolex, look at that fugly Airking you know d.

And, given the 39mm Exp1 is now asking twice the retail just because it has been discontinued, this fuels the purchase of Milgauss for those hoping for a windfall soon.

Hello unkers and aunties!

I am uni boy here and I'm here to ask for some advice.

Anyways, basically i made some money in crypto before dy, it hit my take profit during this year march. Basically i made some money and i forgotten about it cause of exams.

As a kid going to shopping mall, I'm always fascinated by luxury watches, but no money...

Now got some cash, I wonder should I get into watches or reinvest those money into things I believe in the long-term?

I'm still studying and gonna graduate in 2 more years and this is the most amount of money I ever gotten my hands on. haha

If i were to buy, I can only afford Tudor watches that I like. Personally like pelagos and pepsi as they fit the style i like and i think they are investment watches?

1 side of brain hand a bit itchy haha, but on the other side of my brain ask me to invest into things I'm good at to make me richer next time. Maybe I should work and accumulate wealth first before spending it haha..

Also this is 100% my money, I worked for it and no parent support with my investment money as they don't believe in stocks or crypto. They only like property. So.. they also dk I got some money haha. My mom might be shocked if I buy a Tudor haha

Any suggestion for this kid here? Newbie here, any advice is welcomed.

Only you can answer those questions bro.

Watches are absolutely a hobby, treat it nothing more than that. And like hobbies, some items might get you nice returns, but most don't. You get satisfaction from it instead. I still wear my 20-year-old swatch because it was the first piece I ever bought. I doubt that is worth even RM100 but it is as fun as the BB58 I have, so prices are not an indication of anything emotionally.

If you ask me, I'd say invest it. Pelagos and Pepsi will still be there 2 years down the line, and I would think it makes way more meaning to get it as a graduation gift rather than I got it because I got money.

Secondly, I also don't believe you should "settle" for a luxury watch because it's deemed as luxury. Go to the AD or boutiques, tell the sales fella you are interest in watches and want to try on some they have. See which one you like most. If they look down on you, just walk away and go to the next one. Or let me know and I'll personally tell my guy to deal with you, can try everyone in the shop lol.

Try until you find one you really like, and get that one, either now or when you can afford it. A good watch will probably last longer than you, so do you really want something you don't really like on your wrist? Probably not.

Recent. I think Cortina also moving to the platform. No choice when covid hit everyone cannot go out.

Also easier to sell those non-hot pieces.

Rolex has got 20 mil customers base worldwide, they produced 1 mil annually (much lower during covic) but very low output on sport model....Daytona even lesser.

Prob is everybody chasing for sport model only

Rolex Group includes Tudor ma.

So they probably don't sell as much, maybe 7-800k jer.

Hopefully not as hard to come by laugh.gif

Pelagos is completely shadowed by its Black Bay little brother. No endless waiting list, no premium, and a good buy indeed.

Crazy price. And this might not even a BNIB.
5 years are too long to wait! Ouch
Any tips on how to get Pepsi earliest possible?
Survey through few ADs but most of them say better go grey market to source.

Yes.

You either have a very healthy account, i.e spend ungodly amount on in house brand, or you have a very very good friend with such an account and is willing to order one and sell to you, or just stump up that premium and live with it.

All models or just the popular models? My wife wants a DJ31 with diamond dial. Is it still readily available at boutiques? Am planning to get it for our 13th wedding anniversary.

Otherwise, I am getting the Patek Philippe 24 quartz for my wife as it is costs not much more only.

Those diamond ones still have. But I'd think the PP looks way better.

Sub's bezel sets it out. That's why u buy any divers people usually mistake it as a Sub.

But most have no idea the exp1 is a Rolex.

The new one also nice.

I just don't like their model of releasing far too many models and far too few pieces.
