I walked into Hal Martin's to drop a watch off to be serviced one time and when I opened the door I walked into a wall of a man. I did not immediately recognize him but he was there with his mom and a short white guy. We listened in a bit and finally deduced that it was Jadeveon Clowney buying a watch for his mom with his agent.

That's what I thought. I guess they figure the look with the ceramic bezel and rubber strap is worth $200 more than a steel bezel and metal bracelet. I'm not sure about that math.

Don't try to break down luxury jewelry by the price of its inputs. It will only end in frustration.

If anyone is in the market for his and hers white-faced Rolexes I'm open to selling. Building a house and id rather have money than the watches at the moment.
Have a woman's date just with the white gold bezel and a men's air king.

Longines is a pretty under appreciated brand.

I'm genuinely pleased with it. The fit and finish is nice, easy to read, beautiful craftsmanship. I feel like it's great value for money!

It's my daily (and only) watch, but my wife never wears hers so I'd prefer to sell them as a pair.

not really sure about the logic here. You like your watch, but she doesn't...so sell hers.

You're not going to get more by selling them as a pair. more likely you'll get less because it's a very limited audience.

That's fair. I've posted hers before and didn't see much interest. I think I'd ask $6,000 for hers and $12000 for the pair. Feel free to pm me if there's any interest.

Nice looking watch. I added a Hydroconquest to the collection 2 years ago. Only thing I'll say is be careful and patient with the crown. It's a bit annoying to open and mine at least stopped closing after a year or so. Longines was good and replaced it and got it back to me quickly.

Thanks! I've noticed the crown can be a little finicky. The watch has rekindled a love of watches in me. Now I'm feeling the need for more

Zadok is fun because they have a bunch of different watch brands that you can look at.

MIL worked at Zadok's for decades, recently retired. I could spend hours in there window shopping. The family discount was nice when it came time to buy.
People think I'm an idiot or something, because all I do is cut lawns for a living.

As others have said zadok is the best and have most brands.

I also really like Tennebaum to look at Blancpain and Glashutte Original. They also have girard perregaux and Norqain.
