[I read through the FAQ and as far as I could tell, there was nothing apropos to my post. However, moderators, if this is redundant to previous discussions, please feel free to lock and remove and point me to such older threads.]

I have a few timepieces on my wishlist, many of which are slightly older models that can be acquired either through authorized dealers or discount dealers. Obviously, a purchase through the latter will not afford me a manufacturer's warranty but the cost may be much less.

How critical do you think a manufacturer's warranty is for a watch of relatively high value (let's say anywhere from entry-level to high-end luxury)?

Andy Weir's novel was an outstanding read. The movie was engrossing, too. The thing that I find so compelling about Weir's story as an author is that he published the e-book first. What a neat beginning.

I have only good things to say about the book and the story, but I come here to raise one pedantic point.

One of my areas of practice as a lawyer is in maritime law. In fact, in addition to my J.D., I hold an LL.M. in Admiralty (LL.M. = Master of Laws).

The person who recommended The Martian to me is a fellow lawyer with whom I worked on a case. His expertise was in complex litigation and mine was in maritime law, and we so happened to be working on a matter that needed both. He sold me
