Why no articles on G-Shocks... they keep good time and look snazzy too.

Shhh. Don't spoil it.

I can't wear a Rolex but I can still rock a shock.

Could anyone front me 1k for the watch training academy I’ll get you back asap, trust

Look, that FlipperGuy here is a Looser. ( 1 bedroom Appt. with stuffed animals on the Bed in the background as Backdrop to a Getting rich Quick theme ..... ) The Money is to offer that online Flipper " Course " ! There are enough Loosers out there to fall for that, because it sounds exiting/ luxurious instead of flipping Burgers for $ 12/hour. No Taxes, no commitments, clean hands , bludging on Society. Demand everything ( entitlement as a birth right ) , give nothing back. Scam everybody, whinge if you get scammed. Brave New World.

If you're able to flip $5,000 of watches into $100,000, what do you need support for?

I can turn $100,000 into $5000 real quick. Can I get support for that then?

I will defend him as I’m going to quit all my jobs, go on state assistance and flip watches like hot potatoes. I’ll start tomorrow.

This is an Omega vintage collectors forum. Not an free advertising forum for so called high end watches. Which are not high end. What do you get out of this? Free watches from the manufacturers , you hope ? Just get whatever followers you need, to achieve whatever relevance you crave , on Reddit, Insta or all the other modern world start Up's, that do not care about knowledge, research, the Truth, actual Joy from handling vintage mechanical pieces that are part of our history and technical evolvement of human kind.... All Talk. No Reality. No hard work. " Celebrity " 15 seconds of Fame with hopefully real world benefits for the talker. Good luck !
Achim, don't hold back, tell us what you really feel!

Oh that was in jest they have those scam courses for everything, collectables, stocks, crypto etc. I learned a while back selling watches ain’t my thing other than selling one to pick something else up. I find the attitude on some of these people funny but as I was scraping ice off my windshield at 6:15a to get to work I understand why people want to find easier softer ways. I wore my seiko 5 again today as it was primed and ready to go, I got it on Amazon a couple years ago for 65 bucks. I’m am going to work on selling it and turning it into a Daytona by Aug 2030.

Watches for me are a nice distraction I enjoy. I did run into some bumps in the road this year that made me lose interest in seeking out anything new but that seems to be passing and I’m looking again. If I see them only as dollar signs it kills the enjoyment for me but it’s not like I don’t have other side hustles so if people choose to sling watches I see no issues but we all need things just for entertainment, enjoyment and distraction. Now let me get working on turning this seiko into a Daytona

As we can see in his videos, not much to learn from that course. Same for some from that Roman guy all over youtube. They talk about only the latest trendy high end stuff like it's all there is. Ok, so take for instance their harping about internet buying and selling. How is one going to basically buy AND sell the same stuff from the same people and expect to get ahead? Someone is going to have to lose. Either the seller or the buyer. Not a respectable business model.

But, my AD tells me that Rolexes never go down in value, EVER. So, I figure, the only way this can go is up.

If we can figure out how to buy a watch and then sell it back to the same person at a profit!.....Well, the "For Sale" section will get a boost!

That is what we are about!
How many oldies have we pumped $ into, never to be seen again because we believe in the art!
I don't gamble football or the horses, I toss my loose change(+) into a reverent love for the marriage of science, art, history and mathematics that is horology.
All of the real sciences to try to represent an abstract concept.
Yesterday and tomorrow are concepts, only now is real.

My G-Lide has a moonphase, step counter, and a freaking TIDE CHART. Take that Patek



Seriously though OP is playing to a tough crowd and competing in a packed field. Businesses like that always make me think "money laundering", though this is more a reflection of where my mind is at than anything to do with OP!
