Looks like you can rent tudor for $150 a month and rolex for $300 (steel). If its legit, and you get to pick exactly what watch you want each month, its not a bad idea for people who would like to try a watch for an extended period before committing to a purchase. It could potentially reduce buyers remorse and people flipping their watches after a few weeks. All this being said, its not really something I would ever do.

You definitely wouldn't get the same buzz as when you buy a watch but may work for some people

Apologies if OP is sincere, but does anyone think these repeated threads about eleven james are a bit suspicious ? It seems to have come up many times on TRF

As mentioned already, previously discussed many times and previously dismissed many times.

I checked out the website and the prices are ridiculous. It's an annual membership, and from what I read on the FAQs, you don't pick the watch you want. You select a "level" of membership which grants you access to a certain level of watch. You do give them a list of your preferred choices. Quite honestly, you would come out better buying a watch and then selling if you didn't like it rather than joining this club.
If anyone has an opposing argument, I would love to hear it. I just don't see the value in this service at the prices they have listed. |

Kind of agree. They're not new yet people seem to "just discover" it all the time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yea they certainly look expensive and if you can't pick what you like that's pointless
