I can't even aspire to own a watch like this, but it seems like your style |

Date: January 14th, 2026 4:56 PM Author: Patel Philippe What do you think about the Portugieser Eternal Calendar with 45 million year moon phase accuracy?
I can't decide if it's the most underrated technical achievement of the 21st century, or a stupid gimmick that they made even worse by making The Rock an ambassador |

Date: January 14th, 2026 9:59 PM Author: Patel Philippe IWC is bad at marketing and always buries the lede
The single-crown one setting secular perpetual is totally unique and an actually compelling value proposition (eliminating the 30/31 annoyance and changing date forever), much less one that shows day/date/month and a 4-digit year
The moonphase with 45m year accuracy is totally irrelevant and no idea why they spent decades on that
If you regulate the watch to +\- 2 seconds and it never loses power, it would take over 100 years for the date to be off
Do you agree that the single-crown secular perpetual calendar is the most prestigious Swiss complication? I can't find another one with it |

Date: January 14th, 2026 10:07 PM Author: Patel Philippe I'm workshopping a dark comedy inspired by the Portuguiser Eternal, that zooms in on the luxury watch industry
Picturing Tim Robinson in the lead. Maybe DDL as a demented version of Kurt Klaus |

Date: January 15th, 2026 12:42 PM Author: The Soo CR National Champions JUGGERNAUT Should I cop a Gronefeld Principia 1941 or am I just compulsively buying watches at this point? Keep in mind for large swaths of the year I am on trips where I can only keep 7 watches with me, so ones that don't make the cut for a particular trip languish in the box.

Date: January 15th, 2026 12:59 PM Author: OldHLSDude Can someone fill me in on why owning multiple expensive watches is a thing? I'm not dissing it, but I would like to understand. I get the idea of display of wealth and the esthetics of glittering jewelry, but beyond that I am drawing a blank. I could imagine getting a shiny hunky solid gold Rolex President, but I would only need one of them. My late sister, who was prole to the core, had dozens of cheap watches which color coordinated with her clothing outfits. Is is like that? Or is more a collector or the-comfort-of-possessions thing? Are they totems? FWIW, I wear an Apple watch and have a Citizen eco-drive still ticking away on my desk in case I ever want to wear it again. I have noticed that the Citizen attracts the interest of gay waiters (it looks Rolexy at first glance). Is that it? The totem thing makes the most sense to me, or maybe attracting gay waiters.

Date: January 15th, 2026 1:38 PM Author: The Soo CR National Champions JUGGERNAUT Part of it is compulsuve collecting. Also different watches for different situations, dive watch, dress watch for formal events, pilot watch, I have a dedicated ski watch, chronos, then a lot of GMTs because i’m often away and like to be able to track multiple time zones. Others just for the technical aspect, like I have a Zenith that has a 1/100th second chrono. Thought it was neat they were able to produce that at a reasonable price vs other concept pieces w that complication that cost 5-10x as much.
