This drop brings back some old memories, while at the same time, it reminds me of how many of the OG Watch Guys are so obviously MIA from this community--not to mention all the OG MD guys who are no longer with us.
I miss 'em all!
Sad to hear. I've been gone for a while, and might even be considered on OG (well, if OG stood for old guy, then that's definitely me).
The watch selection certainly seems far less interesting than in 2017 when I joined. And the change from MD to Drop, along will the major redesign, made it feel less like a community and more like just a shopping app. Previously it seemed to balance shopping and community better than it does now.
Well, I wouldn't say I'd casually drop that kind of cash. I certainly don't begrudge you whatever stipulations you might have. I just thought that since there are plenty of movements that have a 38 hour reserve for even more cash I was a bit surprised.
BenTWPSure. I definitely won't be getting one which is even more expensive though. I apologise if you thought I was claiming this is somehow an objectively poor watch. My objective in the discussion area is typically my personal opinion.
Interesting and looks well made. Just for the record it's not right to call a movement in-house unless it was actually made there, not just finished there.
FourthWheelI get myself in a lot of heated debates on this forum about the Chinese clones and eta and always winding up sounding like a dick but I’m a big fan of the tried and true eta swiss movements although a lot of people disagree with me saying there overpriced i paid $349 for that glycine and I have a gmt with a 2893-2 that runs spot on out of the box i never opened it up at all that one cost me $379 so imo there’s no reason for me to even entertain the thought of purchasing a seagull or haunsung movement but that’s just me i love eta
Pssst. Jomashop has this watch for sale online @ $495 with free shipping as always. Bet you it includes papers too. If you're going gray market, you're gonna have a tough time beating Jomashop.
I received my Oris Rectangular awhile ago but I've had to wait for my birthday last week before I got to wear it. Just loving it but today I switched the bracelet for a 22mm navy blue leather strap and it's another watch again. Really pleased.
Correct, no papers. I'm returning the watch. A pity, because it's really nice. I don't mind the warranty from Massdrop, but at least the papers should be there.
I thought I joined the Drop for the 22mm Oris but got the 18mm. Why do I have to pay extra for the smaller model which I do not want and Massdrop should check their post on the website .
trivannguyenThe +$70 were for the 18mm bracelet.
It's always better to double check reference and also the discussions, neil.r posted a comment about this "issue".
