Lol people are mad at @Lyn Alden for calling Rolexes shitcoins on twitter. As a Rolex enjoyer I have to say, they are absolutely shitcoins. image

Anyone who has tried to resell jewelry before knows they are all shitcoins.

The β˜€οΈ(not a shitcoin) was my watch yesterday. I was 6 minutes off :)
It is best to keep it simple. A watch had to show time, that is all, 50k watch shows the time and 100 one shows it as well. Instead of taking the risk of losing, being stolen, broken, etc. a 50k watch I would use 100 and don't even think about consequences.
My aunt once gave a Rolex when I was young and then a year so later my cousin told me that it was a fake πŸ˜–

Like light and darkness are interdependent, and do not exist without the other … the birth of bitcoin conferred the status of shitcoins on all else, and they do not exist without the other.
I’m of this school too. The way I see it you can spend the other $49.9k on stacking big, fat sats.
Expensive enough to have a great movement. Cheap enough to EDC and not get upset too much if it takes a hammering. Perfect. I had a Patek for a long time but it was giving me dirty fiat vibes so swapped it for Corn and picked up a Tudor and never looked back ✊

I'm glad you like them, I haven't been in to watches since phones become a permanent accessory - maybe I'm just too functional 🀣
some people have spent 40 years at a job to be given one of these beasts before retiring
I'm happy, for many years now, with my seiko skx007j. Still in love with it, don't want another one.
Especially when they can’t distract you every 30 seconds in a business meeting with the live price of Bitcoin image
After getting robbed by people who got into my house pointing guns at me, I can say: Watches are like shitcoins, but you can’t even hide it from whoever wants to rob you. They are worst than shitcoins.

If your stack is strong enough, you can live your life with the sun and moon telling the time.

Additionally, a Rolex is garbage & tacky AF. It’s like fisting Peter Schiff/on your wrist.
Good looking time piece @HODL! Totally agree with you since they make 1 million Rolex watches per year so I’ll just stick to stacking finitely scarce sats

I’ve had Omega and Tag watches and they are finicky and unreliable as have been the Rolexes of people I know. My watch buying advice: 1. Look for a sapphire crystal for scratch resistance if you pay more than $400 without getting sapphire, you’re getting overpriced shit 2. Look for quartz movement over automatic movements for reliable timekeeping. Quartz is reliable and can take abuse. Automatics are finicky. They are entirely for status as quartz is superior in function. If you want a reliable attractive watches for reasonable money, there is no substitute for a Citizen Eco-Drive or a Bulova quartz with sapphire crystal. Max $500-$600 price.
