Wow, that is such a great looking watch J ! Really cool !

Didn't they already release these a few years ago? or alternatively I need more coffee :) They added beads of rice bracelets, mikey Yup, thought the same thing Mike. :thumbsup: Guess Michael is right with the beads of rice changing things up a little this time around. Also seems like there might be...

Saw this great news about Jenny today guys. They are going to release 500 pieces in each version of the Jenny Caribbean 300. As you probably already know, Jenny released their first watch back in 1956, and had a patent on the world's first dive watch water resistant to 1000 meters. The limited editi...

Seriously thanks for posting; these never get old.

Couldn't agree more Tony.

Happy you guys enjoyed them so much.

Have a couple of videos for Bremont fans, and just watch fans actually for you guys. :) The first shows the MBIII, the latest addition to the Martin-Baker line, with it's military inspired bronze barrel, COSC certified GMT movement, and all of the testing the MBIII goes through. While the second sho...

Now this is beautiful Thian ! :o ..Glad you got one back in the collection again. Something how the green is on this dial. It's so unique, and looks like a blend of a few different cool greens. The sun-ray effect is epic too, and really teams with the gold markers in the nicest way. Yowza, this is g...

Whoa Rob, what a line-up there ! Imagine having all of those?!

Glad you got to see, and test drive them like this. Must have been so much fun.
Thanks so much for the info, and also report here !

Hi stonehead ! Very happy that you decided to join
the fun here. You've come to the right place
for learning about vintage divers, and basically any
thing else you want to, and you'll have a great time
doing it.

Welcome ! ..Oh, and cool watches there by the way !

Now that's really neat Tom. Must have been so surprising seeing this.

Tudor really does seem to do a great job making you want their watches.
(All of their watches) Thanks a lot Tom ! Really cool sir !!!

Hey there Erik, how is it going? Fantastic having the chance to talk with you again ! :thumbsup: ..Want to say also say sorry you got mugged, and injured like that. Think it is just ridiculous that this happened to you. Will say though, that your collection has to make you feel a lot better. :clap: ...

Hi Joel, welcome to DWC ! Think it's awesome that
you found this place. It's going to be a place where
you'll most likely be spending a lot of time from now on.
Great to have you here, and great watches by the way !

Enjoy yourself !

Yup, definitely is an awesome piece Dave. Also liking the way they
did the numbers, and how the day, and date window is set up. Just has an
overall charm that makes you smile. I mean even the moon is smiling

Very nice sir ! Appreciate the look at it. Thanks so much !

Monday is Mondiaday today...

This arrived in the mail on Saturday. Could not be happier. Had my eye on a Non-GMT version, but with this being a blue GMT hand and very subtle, I get the best of both worlds. Have the GMT hand set to Ireland. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5599/14963172094_a5717f0a0f_z.jpg Used my Magnifier App t...

Longines really hit it out of the park with this one, and even got that cool
angular bezel in there. ..Thank you very much sir !

Can only imagine how amazing all of this must have been for you guys Nick. :clap: Looks like you both really know what you're doing, and have so much fun doing it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Bear Grylls, and MacGyver would be proud ! It's amazing because for most of us this kind of adventure only exists ...

Think it's unbelievably nice Don ! :o There's something about the way this case fits, or teams up with the dial that really gives it a unique feel. At first you notice this has all the makings of a perfect dress watch. THEN you're like wow, this is the perfect sport watch too ! :grin: ..Congratulati...

Dave, that is amazing really ! Incredible find, and win !

Can't wait to see it on that strap, and hear how much you like it. Congratulations on
