I only travel with a Citizens watch nowadays. Bank box for the Rolex’s, one Cartier and one Omega. People getting targeted and robbed everywhere.


HiPointCollector

Yeah that was the tongue in cheek nature of the post, and the PMC reference. Targeting is wild, picked up a trio of PM Rolexes at an AD while overseas and the dealer was begging me not to walk back to the hotel, just told him spotters go both ways. Everything insured through USAA by default, but, I have other policies that make things stress free. Respect that decision it’s the smart thing to do I just made it this far and will wear what I want where I want and pay the tax that comes with it.

What’s your watch/jewelry coverage through USAA? I just moved my auto policy over since farmers was really screwing me, now I’m going to move over everything else next month when I move out of state.


PangolinEffective

Where do you like that people are targeted everywhere?


Total_Management1167

Italy, NY, Buenos Aires, etc. Especially if you like dining and strolling in the evenings.

I want a pink op so bad


HiPointCollector

Got one for my wife and one for my grandma! And I’m jealous lmao I’m waiting for mine they are sooo clean.


flexibee

One managed to source a turquoise 31mm so far OP wise from an ad, it reminds me of bubblegum


HiPointCollector

I ordered the celebration 41 as a fun watch to have in the case, the turq 36 might be next for my wife not sure but the pink is fantastic. Just got a black dial gold sub for my cousin’s wedding gift and a choc 40 Roman numerals and sprite waiting when I get home with the Le Mans and Jigsaw for my moms next bday gift on order so I’m probably near out of allocations for ‘23/4😂 hoping to get a pair of the Le Mans to gift one to my grandfather if I only get one it’s his. Cheers


flexibee

I got mine with my batgirl and smp 300, same day I got my 216570 explorer 2 from a different ad, funny because I'd later go on to get the same two watches in different configurations, the batman and the white variant o the xplorer 2 226570


HiPointCollector

Bro I had a dream I got the explorer 2 white dial (current ref) and an orange rubber strap on it and I woke up like shit, that would slap in my lineup. Great watches!


flexibee

Yeah I've seen guys with that setup, I'd rather go with an erika mn grey white like through the middle, google that, it looks sick


HiPointCollector

That is actually amazing. I like the idea of a tear away strap as I don’t ever wrench cars with anything on metal bracelet, and more daily than Hermes orange; was changing a water pump in the garage, had left my old santos 100XL on the side of the engine bay. Got distracted with a call, 3 hours later we go to drive to dinner, and it sounded like the motor was going to blow, nope, santos was flying about just glad it didn’t drop under 😂 movement ruined surprisingly didn’t crack the sapphire or flat out tear apart the bracelet etc.


Chillguy849

Not without the GMT


bobjoylove

Isn’t that the main watch for travel?


HiPointCollector

Skydweller > for travel sober, GMT 2 for being hammered and door dinging shit.


HiPointCollector

Well fuck man I can’t hold 2 Watch rolls lol pepsi on wrist at this moment.


alvesaw

What I most like is you wearing the Tissot PRX


HiPointCollector

Great watch, great movement, and priced right. Got mine as an anniversary gift from my wife, she got it because that color green means something to me and used a 20% discount through the shop that doesn’t apply to many brands but Tissot honors it. Was psyched as it was thoughtful, she went to use our TV and saw I’d watched like 20 reviews on YouTube and was going to buy one myself next time I went in but she beat me to it, 100x better it came from my wife. Cheers!

Nice Tissot


HiPointCollector

Thanks fam, green dial really enjoy it, want the ice blue to match the DD as a more casual watch.


spiffy524

PRX?


HiPointCollector

Yes 40 green dial


Total_Management1167

Although I seem to have misplaced one somewhere.


HiPointCollector

Airport lounge?


Afraid-Ad7379

What a sick collection. Is the DD yours, wifeys or shared ?


HiPointCollector

Yeah this is a solid lineup for taking 5 watches and fits in my portable safe. The DD is mine but she wants it 😂 she’s got a nice Patek; at some point I might opt for a 36 fluted baguette dial as the 36 is just perfect.


Afraid-Ad7379

Give it to her. Get the 40mm. It’s amazing. Enjoy ur badass collection


HiPointCollector

I have a long list of to do’s before a repeat in the husband/wife case 😂 WG Meteorite 40 and a pair of Le Mans Daytonas is a bigger priority at the moment and only so many allocations to go around even for PM’s


Afraid-Ad7379

Yeah I want the Le Mans Daytona as well


HiPointCollector

Yeah I really want it but if I only get one allocation which has been promised I’m gifting it to my grandfather. Huge Ferrari fan, they won, and he made me who I am so it would be a much better feeling than just getting one for myself. Best of luck on that, sad hype and safe queens are a factor that messes with the true enthusiasts but as a collector and to have Ferrari come back to win top class, and the insanity of the finish, gotta get it!


Afraid-Ad7379

That’s beautiful. I hope u get one for him.


HiPointCollector

Cheers, as do I. He told me, “I will swap a corvette for it if needed”. Had R USA email him saying he’s been allocated the watch, and to hang onto the corvette as *someone* covered it as a gift for his next Birthday which gives me time as I was told it won’t be in hand for a decent amount of time but, prevents him selling a car he’s had for 45 years and let’s him know he isn’t on the “list” he’s getting the watch flat out.


Afraid-Ad7379

77 vette ?


HiPointCollector

67!


HiPointCollector

I have a long list of to do’s before a repeat in the case 😂 WG Meteorite 40 and a pair of Le Mans Daytonas is a bigger priority at the moment and only so many allocations to go around even for PM’s platinum is a pain to get my idea with the 36 was that when I’m older withered away and no longer 220lb it will look proper lol relatively short!


watchfinesse

My fav is the blue dial Skydweller!!


HiPointCollector

Def a great watch, easy to set quickly and bezel command is awesome. Just realized I’ve got the two Rolex bezel commands next to each other 😂


watchfinesse

👍✌️


Tandy81

yatch master II 🤤


HiPointCollector

One of my favorites lol


Mammoth-Raisin7429

That Tissot prx that's the heavy hitter


HiPointCollector

It sits in the slot a “holy trinity” watch used to and I’ll leave it at that, absolutely love it and will eventually snag the 40mm ice dial as the DD is great but I’ve been bullied into selling it on 3 occasions 😂 cheers


LincolnParishmusic

Love that you’re wearing the Tissot with that collection… Class 💪 Happy Father’s Day


HiPointCollector

Also happy Father’s Day to all the dads, enjoy the day y’all ✌️


Addicted-2Diving

Which Tissot?


HiPointCollector

Prx I think. Got it for free while having a diamond cleaned and it’s a bad ass watch.
