Introducing The Longines Conquest 1/100th Alpine Skiing Chronograph
The ability to time?events to hundredths of a?second?is quite a technological feat. Such recording requirements surpass the needs of the average chronograph-user (who is more likely to?use this complication in more modern ways (e.g. grilling time, decanting time, souffl��-rising time. Heck, maybe even a light?jog if it's not raining). But for the adventurous watch-wearer, especially one who lives on the slopes, Longines is offering the Conquest 1/100th Alpine Skiing Chronograph.Longines has a long history of athletic timekeeping �C since 1878, to be exact �C and this new model continues that heritage.?The case measures in at 41 mm �C modern dimensions, but not egregious. The dial is black with a single applied Arabic numeral at 12 o'clock and eleven applied indexes?with Super-LumiNova coating.The?hands are rhodium?plated, with the red hand swiping at 1/100th of a second when engaged. Subdials include a 30-minute counter at 2 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 10 o'clock and running seconds at 6

Forged Carbon vs Offshore Chronograph Diver
Given the choice between the forged carbon 44mm against the yellow Offshore Chrono Diver, which would you guys pick? Bear in mind this will be a companion to a 41mm blue dial royal oak. I'm stuck in between as the forged carbon is a completely different material and look from the 15400. However, the yellow Offshore Chrono Diver is way sportier and is of a very unique color. Which would you choose?? Any opinions would be nice. I'm leaning more towards the forged carbon, but the limited edition of 375 is pulling its weight in my decision making.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Greetings folks! Worth snagging this 96?
Hello there! I generally collect Rolex but I have a friend of mine offering a Patek ref. 96 black dialed with sub at 6 watch.I can snap pics next week if that helps. It seems like the dial as some wear/spotting but slight and the metal looks tarnished a tad.He is a very active vintage collector and he is offering me the watch for 3,000.I feel like this is a good investment piece/an important watch in the history of Patek.I am not sure how rare they are or if 3k for the slight wear is worth it? It looks like online they sell for 5-7k gold faced variants.One thing I did notice is that the crown was replaced, it looked like it fit OK but was obviously replaced along the way. The watch appears ot be 18k yellow gold. Any insight? The movement seemed to match what I saw online and was clean. The watch was running fine. I am attracted to Patek, more so as of late so perhaps this is a good segue into it? I know the gentleman really well so that helps. Thanks for any insight you can offer me. I
