Yup. I've wanted one for a while, they're amazing in black or white and I found one used. I should probably learn to use my Dslr and take real photos.

It's got some stupidly long name like all Longines watches. Flagship Heritage column wheel chronograph.

I want to send it out for AR coating but am having a hard time finding a good person for that.

The dial layout is all wrong with the reduced and the movement is so incredibly different that its really not worth it.

Must have been because it took me till about midway through to realize it wasn't part of the Oscars as I stopped my fast-forward thinking it was another one of the montages the show was doing.

Also I predict you are going to get kidnapped in Bejing and have a kidney (or two) removed.

It'll take more than a watch to look like a baller in Beijing.

You gotta show that address within the 3rd ring or drive Uber in your Maserati.

A little off topic but this is a good illustration of status in China even though the PP in the 2nd picture is definitely fake.

Yeah it's critical to buy a fake enough fake here, if it looks too real they are going to be mad and might skimp on the ice in the bathtub
