Life & Watches with Horology Republic

Episode 18: Box & Papers, Necessity or Nah? | $1500 to $3000 "Best Value" Discussion


Listen Later

Summer is indeed in full swing and getting everyone together to record weekly isn't as easy these days, so we hit you with over TWO HOURS of fun discussion.


Larry, Brian, and Zachary get together on a gorgeous summer's night to talk a few things over relating to the watch journey we've been on together all year. First up, is box and papers essential to watch collecting OR is it just a nice to have? We discuss and provide a little insight if you're on the fence about it.

NEXT, we discuss a topic which Zachary saw on Youtube from Mike at This Watch, That Watch (which is an EXCELLENT channel of quality watch discussion if you haven't seen it, go check it out). He makes a good point that $1500 to $3000 is a sweet spot of serious value, so we gave our own takes on it. Not necessarily responding to everything he says or point-for-point, but just as a general guideline by which to have a talk about whether we think that's the true value spot.

We also have a bit of a watch rundown where Larry gives a few of his initial thoughts on the Brigade Watch Subcommander and it's quality. He's put it through a few paces and is writing his own review about it, so make sure you keep a look out at his IG for that. Because Brian is a trader, he also busted out a bunch of models to go over and we thought that fit well with the theme, so we took a look at several pieces within some price points we had outlined already and saw whether the guidelines fit or if they were kind of bogus. Listen in and you'll see!
