Re: Are you a Rolex purist?

My first NATO, believe it or not. I wanted the "real Bond" with the olive stripes, but did NOT want to do business with Corvus ( don't ask...) When I found this one, I was stoked! Great strap, great seller and a great price. Immediate shipment, too. All around great transaction. David even sent a pe...

Re: Omega Seamaster GMT Coaxial

Nice watch with a solid blue bezel!!! Very James Bond look... ;) Anyone could share what is "escapement" means when it show as "Co-Axial Escapement". :scratch: Google George Daniels or Daniels' escapement. It's much too complicated for me to really grasp, let alone describe, but it is the first rea...

Omega Seamaster GMT Coaxial

Some of you may remember that I was torn about trading my Breitling Seawolf Ti for this watch. I want to thank Cali for bringing me back to my senses! It was so damn hard because I still love the B, so I kept it and just bought this one outright, instead. More light box shots from my buddy: http://i...

Welcome to DWC!

Since you already have THE Rolex (except for that date complication), now it's time for a few Omegas and at least one Sinn. :stir:

Enjoy yourself!

I am honestly blown away - I mean, I seen PO's before and I have seen watches on mesh before, but I guess I've never seen this combo and it just rocks! :love: Thanks a lot! I wore it yesterday and I haven't gotten so many stares since I quit wearing the 50+mm Invictas... They just didn't point and ...

Re: To Trade or Not To Trade... Seawolf Ti for Bond GMT

I can't speak of the Omega, but it is getting difficult to find a nice condition Ti Seawolf. I recently considered flipping mine to fund a Panerai, but then I wore it again and that plan went out the window. Great point, Shorty. Mine is PERFECT. I could ABSOLUTELY see that impacting the value... Da...

To Trade or Not To Trade... Seawolf Ti for Bond GMT

OK. I am out of control, but this just might be a win/win. My trading partner likes bigger watches and does more actual diving, so the Breitling might be a terrific fit for him. 1. I only do desk-diving and wear more suits, so I would most likely WEAR the Bond more than the Seawolf. 2. The Blue woul...

Could I be THIS lucky...?

First a little background... I live in the border area of Deep S. Texas. One of the paradoxes of this region is that while I live and sell (business-to-business) in a couple of the lowest per-capita counties in the entire US (lower than Appalachia, if I'm not mistaken), we have always had a decent t...
