A high end luxury watch is one of the best “expensive” purchases you can make. If you’re concerned about ROI, you can buy a watch that will be worth the same or more than what you spent 10 years from now.


Not really.

Waste of money

Automatic timepieces are a nice thing to own in my view. It's cool to learn about movements and how they work. It's like a little machine on your wrist. And I think they look nice.

To the OP, never heard of Doxa but they look nice. Not sure which movement they use. Perhaps look into Longines at the $2k-$3k price point. I've heard it's a good value for the price.

That's crazy Is that basically a horology lab? (pause)

I've gotten as far as watching assembly and disassembly of movements with 23ish jewels.

I know those little baskets are used for cleaning the parts

And I think I see your timegrapher in the back there.

Pretty awesome

About 770 miles from BR. Bring treats for the dogs, if they like the treats and there are enough of them, they will lead you right where you want to go. They love snoozing on the cold tile floor when their belly is full.
