Ulysse Nardin Commemorates Columbus’s Santa Maria with Limited Edition
Ulysse Nardin’s origins as a maker of nautical clocks and marine chronometers are on display in many of the brand’s modern wristwatches, like its Marine collection of divers’ watches. The newest model from the Swiss brand’s Cloisonn�� collection of limited-edition timepieces, the Classico Limited Edition Santa Maria, continues the theme of sailing with its tribute to the flagship vessel of Christopher Columbus’s historic voyage to the Americas in 1492.The Santa Maria, the largest of Columbus’s trio of ships that made the trip across the Atlantic Ocean to the New World, is depicted in elegantly rendered cloisonn�� on the finely enamelled dial. The legendary ship, with its flag waving as if in an ocean wind, stands out from the greenish blue of the ocean waves and the dark blue of the sky.

Very Rare Linde Werdelin Land Instrument Available On eBay Now; Awesome Data Tool
Back in December I raved about the very well-done Linde Werdelin Land Instrument. The curious watch computer was more than a futuristic digital module on your wrist. It was a senor laden array of features and important data. British Linde Werdelin created the Land Instrument to fit on top of its existing watch line, literally. The Land Instrument can be used alone, on its own watch strap, or mounted right on top of a Linde Werdelin Biformeter watch.Many claim that the Liden Werdelin Land Instrument is ahead of it's time, but I claim that if it "can be done," then do it. Linde Werdelin has done more than repackage what other computerized watch makers such as Suunto have done in a nicer and more luxurious package. The Land Instrument is actually a combination of senors and computational output. Among other things, the device has an internal compass, thermometer, altimeter, barometer, and hearth rate monitor. The idea is to measure body conditions as well as climate conditions. The Land I

Why do APs not hold their value as well or appreciate like Rolex or Patek?
I am interested in eventually purchasing a SS Royal oak (likely a 15450) but find their isn't the same urgency due to price appreciation as there is with Rolex watches that I am also interested in purchasing. Rather than thinking in terms of investing, I'm thinking in terms of what to buy now as I may be priced out of the watch in 5 more years, that seems to be the case with some of the Rolex watches (for example the 16520 and 1016 are two watches that if I would have bought 5-10 years ago that draw my interest but not for Royal Oaks, why is that?I look at the prices of 4100 or 14790 Royal Oaks as a suggestion of how the price of 15450 may change over time, would you suggest the 15450 will perform differently in terms of the used or vintage market, if so why?

Fair trade, SubC for Explorer II?
Hi, I've been a long time lurker/reader & have learnt a lot from the forum.Thought it's about time I joined the forum.I'm a one watch guy. I currently have a Ceramic Sub that I bought brand new in early 2014. Lately I've been feeling I need a change and I'm being pulled towards an Explorer II 216570.A pre-owned dealer has offered a trade for my Sub + ��400 from me for a full set mid-2017 Explorer II.Would this be considered a fair trade?Am I mad even considering letting the Sub go? One thing I feel I should add is that I no longer have the box and warranty card for my watch. We had a break in a few years back, the B and P were taken then.I hope I haven't broken any forum rules by asking this question.
