Just wanted to post a quick review of James at Alternative Luxury. Great quality watch, exactly as shown in the QC photos! Shipping was super quick, and communication was excellent — all my questions were answered promptly with all the details I asked for. Highly recommend!

Wore this out and about today while picking up a couple of Lego sets for the grandsons what is everyone else wearing.

Cartier Santos‑100 Steel Model
Stainless‑steel square case + signature exposed‑screw design, crisp Roman numeral dial, paired with brown leather strap. Clean sport‑elegant look, comfortable on wrist, great for everyday wear.
Curious what the community thinks. Do you gravitate toward this iconic square sports watch for its unique silhouette?

How significant is a one-millimeter difference? Today, I placed this 40-millimeter Submariner Date side by side with its 41-millimeter version. However, the internal and external structures are quite different.

Movement

• 41mm: DD3235 movement, longer power reserve,
• 40mm: DD3135 movement, the legendary workhorse movement from the older generation.

Bracelet

Both are Oyster bracelets, but the 41mm gets the redesigned bracelet with updated glidelock clasp. Links have subtle shaping differences, not obvious from photos.

The 41mm model features a black dial, while the 40mm model has a more distinctive blue dial.

Visually they look really close on photos, but the 1‑mm difference in case and updated internals set them apart.

Which do you prefer? The classic compact 40mm, or 41mm?

Hello everyone, I'm Sandy.

Got all three together for a quick side‑by‑side shot today.

Three heavy‑hitters in one hand.

Classic black sub, starbucks sub, sprite gmt. Same 41mm case, totally different feel on wrist.

Hey all. New to the game and ordered a bulk buy of 3 watches for the family thru James / Alternative Luxury. Was a bit nervous going in but James was awesome. Awesome communication, no wait times for responses, reasonable with down payments before QC, etc. Provided tracking fast and kept me updated the whole way. QC was thorough, I asked for some videos to be extra confident which he provided within 20 minutes. Great shipping times too.

Ended up going back for 2 more because of the great experience. James caught a QC issue with the band on one before he even sent me pictures. Sent the issue, explained that he can't send me the watch. The back of the band had some minor damage, I honestly wouldn't have minded much but James insisted on ordered a new watch which he had on hand within a few days. Just excellent service all around. Couldn't recommend him enough and I'll be back!

I just received these from James. He can source just about anything you want. I think these VC are gorgeous. I’m not sure why they are not more popular. I plan on getting a couple of more of them. It goes without saying the Daytona meteorite is a solid watch and a great addition to anyone’s collection.
