Arnold & Son DSTB "Dial Side True Beat" Watch New For 2014
Arnold & Son will release this interesting limited edition DSTB watch at Baselworld 2014. "DSTB" stands for "Dial Side True Beat" and is a revision on the brand non well-known TB88 watch collection. In Arnold & Son speak "true beat" means dead seconds. What is that? Well, it is what you call a mechanical watch's second hand when it ticks versus sweeps.Recently, we also debuted Arnold & Son's new for 2014 DTE double tourbillon watch. I think that I like it a bit more aesthetically due to its symmetrical dial, but the DSTB is surely going to be more accessibly priced without the multiple tourbillons. My main issue with the DSTB is the name. I am getting more and more confused with Arnold & Son's alphabet soup naming policy. Eventually, they need to choose actual names or use these acronyms for internal use only.The DSTB is true to its name, but is a bit misleading because the TB88 also had the true beat seconds hands on the dial. The only new thing that is on the dial is

Thoughts on Speedy FOIS?
I've been considering purchasing a Speedmaster FOIS to pair with my Explorer. I had been considering a second SS Rolex, but between the upcoming redesigns with newer movements and the skyrocketing prices, it just doesn't make sense for me. Those of you who own one, how do you like this particular Speedy?

SubC to SD43 back to SubC
So my journey started with the SubC for a few weeks last year, Basel 2017 hit and the SD43 releases, I called my AD and I was first on the list. Sold the SubC and waited for the SD43. I should have kept the subC to compare but I couldn’t afford It at the time. When it arrived in June 2017 I was in love, the 22mm bracelet the case size ect. Wrist presents is there, the bling and all. Well with my 6.75 wrist size I nearly pulled it off and I did, i wore a 44mm Luminox for work so the big 43mm was normal for me. What got me turned off about the SD43 was the thickness and weight. I probably wouldn’t venture into PM if the weight already an issue. I had to wear the watch a lil snug so the watch head won't flop around, I wear my watches all day and I also go to sleep with it on, waking up with a tight watch on the wrist is not comfortable. Being 43mm and 15mm tall, it got in way at times. I had to be extra careful not to bang it getting out my car and avoiding door

First Rolex Incoming
Hey Guys,You may have read my new member thread and my AD ended up calling me today! I had plans to leave town yesterday, but I'm glad I didn't. My rep called and said a sub no date had just come in this morning and he had set it aside. I came in a few hours later and walked out with it. My AD experience was really great, and I'd recommend anyone looking to buy their first Rolex to go that route. I'm really happy with it and I'm glad I'm finally a Rolex owner. They also had quite a few Daytonas come in as well as 2 Milgauss's. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
