Today we will be discussing several brands including Seiko, Nivada Grenchen, TAG Heuer, Louis Vuitton and Aquastar, and as always, we will be honest!
Geneva Watch Day may still be more than a month away, but there have been a number of new watches unveiled in the past few weeks. These are some interesting pieces that have sparked conversation among our hosts. You’ll hear positive and constructive feedback from industry insiders about the latest offerings.
Before we get into the latest releases, let’s take a look at the Handgelenks Kontrolle. mike decided to honor Balazs recent appearance on the Spirit of Time podcast and the Magnum P.I. mentioned therein. Balazs was wearing a newly arrived test watch, the Nivada Grenchen F77, which both said was an attractive one-piece bracelet watch at an affordable price. However, this replica watch is hard to come by as it is usually out of stock.
We’ve got a lot to say about all of them, and we’ll be going over them in detail. When it comes to Seiko and Louis Vuitton, we love them but wish they were a little more affordable. The Skipper watch on the other hand blew us away with its looks and functionality. Finally, the Aquastar represents a step in an interesting direction with a dial that’s very different for a Deepstar II.

Starting a collection of vintage Rolex watches can be a daunting thing to do. When you start, your eyes are fixed on those awesome big money pieces you hope to own one day. You dream of scooping one up at a house auction and buying it for a bargain or making a big investment in something like a Paul Newman Daytona.
This vintage fake Rolex President 1803 is the perfect starting point for any beginner. Also known as the DayDate, this classic formal watch should be a staple in any collection. But what we love about this 1803 is its “pie plate” dial. The unique face makes this watch a great addition to your collection, as it is a staple model with an ironic twist that is sure to add value to your watch box.
We also love the 36mm yellow gold case and the serrated bezel of this watch, which stands out against the dark face. We have to say, that combination makes this watch look like it was made in the 1970s. It has an inherently vintage feel, and we love the brown strap strapped to the lugs. As a presidential watch, this watch also has an automatic movement with day and date functions (of course) and even a water-resistant screw-down crown.
The watch is crafted entirely in 14k yellow gold – from the case to the fluted bezel to the detailed Jubilee bracelet and secure Fliplock clasp. We love that this watch also comes with a champagne-colored dial, adding to the indulgent look that this classic watch is meant to convey. We can’t leave out the 1570 automatic movement inside that swings those luminous hands and flips the Date at 3 o’clock. Finally, the great thing about this watch is that you’ll want to wear it and enjoy it all the time – and the water-resistant, wearable Date allows you to do just that.
You don’t have to start your collection with a timeless classic. You can easily invest in an innovative timepiece, too. What we love about this GMT-Master 16753 is that this watch is just as cool and useful today as it was when it was produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Equipped with an automatic movement made for pilots in collaboration with Panamax, this replica Rolex watch keeps two time zones and military time. The oyster case also meant it could withstand high altitudes and deep seas.
The 5513 was produced from 1966 until the 1980s, with the earliest dials first equipped with instrument markers. It wasn’t until 1970 that they started writing the feet first, as they did on this one, showing how early and special this watch was. Otherwise, the case and dial are in excellent condition, as are the markers and matching cream-colored hands, which have aged beautifully over the years. It’s also important to note the fat front bezel, which has faded to this wonderful gray color and may one day fade away completely and become a ghost – which will certainly increase your value.

Graduation is an important moment in a person’s life because it represents the end of an era and the beginning of a whole new chapter. Luxury watches are the perfect graduation gift, and they are a wearable way to celebrate this major milestone. Whatever your recent graduate plans to do next, they definitely need to be on time, and what better way to help them be on time than to give them a beautiful luxury watch?
When properly maintained, a quality watch will last for multiple generations, and many become heirlooms to be passed down to future generations. Graduation is a big deal, and your recent graduate deserves the best gift possible. Luckily, there are fantastic luxury watches to suit every possible style and budget, and below we take a look at some of the top luxury watches suitable as graduation gifts this year.
When it comes to the price of a cheap Rolex Submariner, the sky is the limit and certain collectible vintage watches have sold for over a million dollars at auction. However, when it comes to choosing a Submariner for a recent graduate, one of the best models is the classic Submariner Date 16610 stainless steel watch with a black dial and matching black bezel.
Despite the recent interest in the brand’s various sporting models, the best-selling Rolex watch of all time is the classic Datejust. First introduced in 1945, the Rolex Datejust set the standard for calendar displays on watches and has been a cornerstone of the Rolex catalog ever since.
Since the 1950s, Rolex has offered the Datejust in a variety of sizes, and for those who want this timeless classic in a more compact size, the Lady-Datejust is a perfect choice, offering all the same legendary durability and chronograph performance in a 26mm or 28mm case. As for money, arguably the best value among all pre-owned Rolexes is the classic two-tone steel and gold fake Rolex Lady-Datejust, model 69173.
Aside from its reduced case size, the Rolex Lady-Datejust is largely the same Datejust that the world has known and loved for decades. For many, the Datejust is the quintessential Rolex, and the 69173 offers all the iconic features of the Rolex Datejust is a classic, compact, and easily identifiable overall package. Ref. 69173 has always been one of Rolex’s most affordable steel and gold watches and compared to the larger versions of this iconic Rolex classic ref. 69173 offers a value proposition that is hard to ignore.

The biggest news from the Rolex catalog update from 2021 is the all-new generation submarine watch with the 41mm case. However, while it’s Rolex’s iconic diving watch line that has grabbed the headlines, there’s also the new fake Rolex Sky-Dweller watches, which now comes with the brand’s iconic Oysterflex bracelet. 
Featuring both an annual calendar complication and a dual-timezone display, the Sky-Dweller is positioned as the ultimate great travel watch within Rolex’s catalog. However, ever since the last of the solid gold models with leather straps were discontinued a couple of years ago, the Oyster bracelet became the only option available for the collection.
Released in 2012, the Sky-Dweller is Rolex’s most recent all-new addition. It is also (by a significant margin) the most complicated piece in the brand’s contemporary lineup. Inside its 42mm case, it shoehorns in a date display, a dual timezone indicator, and the brand’s first-ever annual calendar. Still, in its first few years after release, it was fairly tame. Sales of the watch have been hampered by some unorthodox looks, and the watch is made of 18K pure gold, so the price is correspondingly high.
Of the three original models, the yellow and white gold variants sat on the three-link Oyster bracelet, while the Everose piece was given a brown alligator leather strap. These models were joined in 2014 by another three, which reversed the configurations of the first series, with yellow gold and white gold models with leather straps, and Everose choice on a matching Oyster bracelet.
However, they were still all-gold fake watches. It wouldn’t be until 2017 that the first signs of stainless steel appeared in the form of a pair of Rolesor examples. The steel/yellow gold and steel/white gold models made the Rolex Sky-Dweller significantly more accessible to a wider audience because of the lower cost, and the watch finally saw its stock begin to rise among fans. The dial has also been modified to replace the Arabic numerals with truncheons, the off-center GMT dial has been given a matching color, and the main hand has been lengthened to make it easier to read. These changes all add up for the Rolex Sky-Dweller, which is now a high demand watch. So what’s the effect of adding some stylish new straps?
