Re: DavidSW vs OCRolexguy vs Takuya for Rolex

I bought from and traded with David. Met him face to face in Orlando a few years back for a trade and he is a decent guy. All the deals were excellent and all communication has been top notch. His business is bigger now and he has another guy working for him, Dan, who posted here for a while. I'm s...

I dunno why they felt the need to put a power reserve indicator on an automatic. :/

Lugs look thin to me. If it's for you go for it. But to me it seems to be just a tad high.

Um — you guys do know that the 3-minute subdivisions on the chrono minute register are found on a lot of historical chronographs, right? Not only does it help legibility, but back in the day, they also used to use fractions/multiples of 60 for timing navigational intervals. Tradition, man. That dat...

Re: Dress shoe question

My opinion, go out and spend some decent money on a good pair of wingtips. Something like AE's would be stretching the budget a little I know, but it's worth it and you have a shoe you could easily wear with jeans as well. But don't mind me, I'm a shoe whore. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h250/i...

Re: Leather belt recs

How about input from the strap makers here? Stewart, Drew, Art, Justyn? Is Chromexcel better than vegetable tanned? IMO I would go with Veg Tanned over Chromexcel. It will age gracefully and not tend to stretch as much as the Chromexcel. Most Belt makers will do a veg tanned backing just for this r...

Re: Linde Werdelin news!

The carbon is cool looking, but not so cool to have to replace the case if you knock it around a bit. I admit I'm hard on my divers. This is far less likely to shatter than the ceramic case watches. Depending upon the wall thickness, you will have to do some serious abusing to get it to fail. I'm a...
