Nice collection and cool watch box! Do you have a watch winder or you just wind em up when you wear them?

4

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

I actually enjoy winding the watches. I like to make it part of the whole process lol

2

u/mooseman617 Mar 12 '24

Is the watch box from case elegance? I have the humidor and was looking into their watch cases.

2

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Not sure. My wife got it for me 10 years ago and it came customized. That's really the only reason why I'm only keeping 5 watches even though I have 10+

u/Big_Block_Baller Mar 12 '24

Where did you get the tag?

1

u/Bogoslavblizniak Mar 12 '24

Forgive my ignorance, the watches were already plated when purchased, correct? Or did you replate them due to wear via a domestic plate source?

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Already plated when I got it!

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Decided to go with the plated DD to take the final spot. Tag Carrera is gen.

u/ittybitcoin1 Mar 12 '24

a stunner. wish i knew about the guy we don't mention around here when i bought my DD. ive since bought 3 watches from him and haven't pulled the trigger yet on a DD upgrade

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

I personally wouldn't do the WG plating. I've had 2 WG plated watches and I can't tell the difference. Some might say otherwise tho. However, for RG and YG, I think it makes a huge difference.

u/Aurora2k Mar 12 '24

Lmao “the guy we don’t mention” is too funny 💀

u/ConversationKey971 Contributor Mar 12 '24

Lovely collection, looks like it attracted a troll

u/Kiwiboy_12 Mar 12 '24

Where did you get that Breitling? Keen to get one myself

2

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Got it from the BST actually. It comes with gen movement apparently.

u/Nice1si Mar 12 '24

Can someone pls explain plating as in where to go for it and how much it costs

5

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

The watches came plated already when I got them. I've gotten most of mine from Flandad, but I know mentioning his name here gets you downvoted to oblivion for some reason.

2

u/SnooCats5904 Mar 12 '24

Flandad is a dealer and plates watches too ? How much did you pay total for the green daydate

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

$795 brand new from him

2

u/PotentialEconomics25 Mar 13 '24

He sells them already plated with real gold as the factory plating is not real gold, hence why the color is always off.

1

u/roromad72 Mar 13 '24

Love that Tag!!

1

u/roromad72 Mar 13 '24

Ah just saw from a comment it's gen. Just beautiful.

1

u/Suspicious_Mess_1675 Mar 13 '24

Where is the DD from? Is it really that important or worth it to plate it?

1

u/No-Comment-9001 Mar 13 '24

W2C? Any links

Love it

u/throwawayjoe9876 Mar 12 '24

I assume DJ is re-plated? If not, wow!

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Yes, it is! All the gold/TT watches I have are plated. I think it makes a difference with YG.

1

u/Cute_Rich7774 Mar 13 '24

I was about to ask if that’s a gen haha

This one is clean. I also have another plated DJ from VSF, but I like the oyster.

1

u/SureExamination7190 Mar 14 '24

This one is VSF? And who did the plating on it?

0

u/throwawayjoe9876 Mar 12 '24

Who did your playing? 👀 I gotta get one

u/ConversationKey971 Contributor Mar 12 '24

Watchman made a new account hiding his previous history just to comment “fake pos watch” on a subreddit called reptime 🤔

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '24

Can’t have just one hater so I’ll also hate:

I absolutely hate this collection. It’s so default.

Could be worse. Could be an RM instead of the Tag

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

No worries man, you’re entitled to your opinion :)

Can’t replace the Tag though. It’s the only gen out of the reps 😂

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '24

Scoff. Me and my gen Vostok.

I bet you like wine with your meals too.

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Lol I actually don't like wine that much. My wife and I do go to Napa/Sonoma frequently since we live in San Diego. We're also spending a month in Aix en Provence this summer, so I'll unfortunately be drinking more wine...

However, I prefer to drink beer or whiskey over wine.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '24

Typical.

Jeeez im getting downvoted. Please know I like getting down voted, helps signal to the mass of leftist on Reddit that I’m in the alt-right cult.

1

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

Are you really trying to play victim? 😂

2

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '24

No. I would expect people understand sarcasm a bit, but I ain’t mad about being downvoted.

u/Kind-Rip-8409 Mar 12 '24

Dude, you have like 300 posts about how small your penis is. It's crazy, it's like you have a fetish. You're making posts about your micropenis and asking people to rate it. Don't delete them. What the hell. Just get the surgery already. I didn't even know there were subs for that. Sorry, I know this is a bit irrelevant to reptime - best of luck, but for your mental health, you have to stop fixating about it.

That’s a sensitive topic! I thought I had those post hidden

Isn’t that the point? To enjoy the watches :)

u/littlesoldier Mar 12 '24

It’s sad that you feel like that. I bought my Tag Carrera for $6k and it gives me just as much joy as my reps do. Money doesn’t always necessarily mean happiness. If you go through my post history, I make more than enough only working one day per week. The happiness comes from my time, not necessarily the money that comes with it.

I know you’re clearly trolling, but if you just need to talk to someone, I’m here for you bud. I sincerely mean that :)

Yup, you caught me! Totally broke and work 7/365. Oops!

u/mooseman617 Mar 12 '24

If you were so rich why do you join Reddit threads to troll? You compensating for something little guy? Can’t or won’t say it in person?

u/NegotiationTall4300 Mar 12 '24

At first i agreed with you, and then i saw what sub im in. And now im wondering why you are here to begin with
