You got your degree. You bought yourself that first luxury watch. You wore the hell out of it for a years and finally got into the big leagues. Now you’re dipping into high horology and have solid spend at your Rolex AD. Every time you open up that watch box that first one sits there like a sore thumb you never wear anymore. But you keep it there collecting dust because it’s supposed to mean something. But it doesn’t anymore.

Nobody keeps their first car. But you keep your first watch? Bonkers.

In search of a modern GS (only current production models) that will be the ultimate strap monster. I prefer the thinner cases of the Evo9 line, but open to other suggestions. Max $10k USD budget.

I’m sure many of you own a large strap collection. I’m trying to build one around a GS and looking for a strap monster!

I don’t want a steel RO. I want a gold one. What are the chances of getting that without having to by a code or ROO?

Where AP are taking their introductory product lines is criminal. They are so bloated thick and screams not high horology. Meanwhile, the Hublot Big Bang is getting thinner and meaner and classier and nicer.

I have nothing against these entry level product lines. Except thickness. If they were all thinner they would be much more attractive watches.

But as they are I can’t rationalize a code over A Lange and I can’t rationalize an ROO over any other diver in the same price range.

Would it be that much worse to make them all thinner?
