I don't know #Butler Watch Company, but they are introducing what seems like a decent value automatic GMT using the ever-popular Miyota 9075. 40x13mm casex100m resistance. I like the matte dial and font. Two versions, one a LE. $650 on pre-order; ($699 for the LE).

I guess that Money Digest tuned in to our conversation yesterday because here's today's article on alternatives to the #Rolex Daytona. Featuring the #TAG-Heuer Autavia and the lovely #Baltic Tricompax (under $2k secondary market).

Serious question: homage, replica, or fake? I know not everybody, in fact, almost nobody, can afford a Rolex Daytona, but would you buy this instead? Let's keep the responses civil.

Already found the new #Tudor Ranger Dune in the wild today at Manfredi Jewelry in New Canaan, CT. Great watch and a fantastic independent jewelry store. So, too small for me?

And last for today, the #Ressence TYPE 1 Round Rose Gold. Same wild design but now...with a rose gold dial. Or, to be precise: "4N gold-plated Convex German Silver dial with sunray finish". Whatever--it's cool! $23,200.

Ironically, #Oris just dropped a new Propilot with an upgraded case shape that seems less angular and more premium. Date window has moved to 6 o'clock 😁. New dials and handset too Price unchanged starting at $2700. Have loved this model and it's even better now.

#Omega has dropped the 4th generation of the Seamaster Planet Ocean. Entirely new more angular case that reminds me of the Zenith Defy Revival or Oris Pro Pilot. Thinner case. Goodbye helium escape valve! 7 models from $8600.

Announced but not yet available, #Casio has a new 40mm MTP and it's... a Cubitus? #Patek is probably still safe, but these are going to fly off the shelves at 38x8.3mm w/50m resistance and likely less than $200. The two tone is a totally passable dress watch.

From #Orient-Star, the M34 F8 Date. The faceted dial is stamped then PVD coated to create the green color and metallic shimmer. 40x12.9mm w/100m resistance, F8N64 w/60hr power reserve (meter at 12 o'clock). Very Japanese and definitely a one watch GADA at $2900.
