But because you blow is flooded in the marketplace and by the way I think they’re better looking than Richard Mille. They are knocked. Richard Mille simply limit supply and people want something they cannot have even though it’s a piece of shit

To expand on this, as a “connoisseur of fly shit” I am sure Sean Combs has no idea about the current hipster Timex watches like the “authentic” faux aged watch in this article and the 34 mm watches with Chinese mechanical movements. Watches that lack the “fly” part of Sean’s phrasing.

To him the idea of a “Timex” is likely a late ‘80s / early ‘90s Ironman, which he quite likely had before he made it. A watch that, with its rubber strap, squarish plastic case, and exposed screws around the bezel, bears much more than a passing resemblance to a Richard Mille.

For me “like a Timex” is a reference to the lightweight plastic cases.

I meant to write “…reach an agreement on *pronuciation of* Richard Mille’s names…”

I can still remember when Aston Martin made about a car per week. I know that the number of top tier wealthy clientele is increasing, but this 5K/yr RM production seems so high for something allegedly exclusive and outrageously priced. That’s more than the number of Rolls Royce cars, or Hermes Birkin bags made in a year.

Yup. Six kids, and some of those kids are teens or maybe early twenties.

Next up, the return of whale tail as the forty year olds move into the senior management positions and the executive suite and the twenty and thirty year old take over the creative reins!

It never really goes away, but ever since the late nineties, I’ve noticed that whatever generational cohort has teenage kids (and holds the media reins) at the time rediscovers the “timeless, classy, understated” look of classic 80s prep.

That 36mm as the ideal watch size drumbeat? It is going to get banged a lot harder.
