Apoc Wrote:I stopped in a jewelry store today to check out a watch. I didn't take a pic of it, but Douche McDoucherton who was helping me had one redeeming quality - he insisted I try on this Monaco. I have the say, the watch is pretty sexy. I don't know if it's my style, but my wife actually picked it out of the case and pointed it out to me while I was doing something else. She agrees anyone wearing this would get mad tail.Love that Monaco man! That is a truly timeless watch that really has better presence in person than pics do it justice. I like the Shinola too but that sucks that ding is already there. That's what has always made me nervous about black coated watches. You can get away with small scratches and dings on a stainless / titanium case and even buff them out...black shows everything and is real tough to fix :|
We stopped in Nordstrom Rack a bit later and I took a quick look at the watches while the wife was checking out. Out of everything they had, this was really the only thing that piqued my interest. Fortunately, the case was scratched at 9 o'clock and I wasn't super happy with the fabric quality. I managed to come away spending no money, despite trying them on.![]()
Which reminds me, I put my first dinger on the Tag on a grocery cart tonight
I would be a lot saltier about it if I wasn't already planning on taking it in this week to get fully buffed and polished. :thumbup: Chris, what watch were you originally going to the jewellers to check out?
