Budget Travelers: 5 World-Time Watches Under $5,000
It’s no secret that many watch aficionados are also avid travelers. And what could be more useful for globetrotters than a watch that lets them keep track of time everywhere in the world at once? Many world-time watches will cost you as much as several overseas vacations, but we found a handful, all with mechanical movements, that you can get for $5,000 or less. From Ball Watch, there’s the Ball Trainmaster Worldtime ($3,299 on both leather strap, pictured, or steel bracelet), which has a COSC-certified chronometer movement with automatic winding. Its stainless steel case is water-resistant to 50 meters and shock-resistant to 5,000 Gs. In addition to the primary world-timer functions (the city ring with 24 world cities and 24-hour ring), the watch’s dial has a day of-the-week display at 6 o’clock and 14 luminous micro-gas tubes �� a Ball Watch hallmark �� placed on the “12,” the hour indices, and the hour, minute and seconds hands, enabling easy r

Whats missing......chrono button ROO
Went to get in the car and go off to a rally for the day and my brother said wheres the chrono button gone my heart sank and as I turned my wrist the spring fell out. The button is nowhere to be found. So here is the story and im probably writing this post to get some reassurance from you guys. I had the watch serviced under warranty November last year as I wasn't happy with the Chronograph function. Whilst they were looking into this I mentioned the looseness off the pushers and got them to check it was in tolerance. Now upon it falling off over the weekend, I called the watch shop and told them what had happened and that id like to exercise the warranties service, 1 year further warranty. They told me it did not cover anything on the outside of the watch. My reply was I specifically mentioned the pusher be check so it should be documented on the warranty request form. They are looking into it which makes me nervous..............

Watch box/closet suggestions?
Hi fellas,I am sure many of you own nice watch boxes in which you can your watches.I'm looking for a decent one, if possible with a lock. I'm looking for a small one that I can put on my desk, store in my drawers etc. ( not those massive closet sized ones.)any suggestions?

Speedy reduced service...
If you'll remember, I picked up this Speedy Auto a while back: (HERE).It was runnning way too fast and the lume was deteriorated pretty bad on the hands. For giggles, I got in touch with Dalton Toledo of ABC Watchworks to see if he'd be interested in tinkering with the infamous engine and give it a service...We talked cars for a while and then, being the gent that he is, he said send it in!Got it back a couple days ago. Would it surprise anyone that it's now running only 3 seconds off per day? It also has brand new hands and the pushers are alot friendlier to push. Subdials still not aligned perfectly, but they're notorious for that issue even when new...and this one's 20+ years old.Gotta give a thumbs-up to Dalton Toledo. Highly recommended.

It's a good when....
2 watches arrive! Only opening one today.
