Ariel Adams Of watches-dealer AMA On Reddit September 9, 2015
On September 9th, 2015, I will be participating in another AMA (ask me anything) session with the /r/Watches Subreddit community on Redditwatches-dealer. The last AMA I did with the watch community on Reddit was actually back in 2012 (when this site was still called aBlogtoRead). Years later, it is now time to do another AMA session, as the watch community on Reddit (as well as watches-dealer) has significantly grown.What happens during an AMA? Well AMA sessions get a lot of press because Reddit regularly holds them with all manners of important people and celebrities. The idea is for an audience base of a particular person to have an opportunity to quite literally ask them anything. This can be about the person themselves, their work, their experiences, or anything else related to Ariel Adams and watches-dealer. I personally take the AMA experience seriously and will dedicate as many hours as it takes to answer everyone as thoroughly as possible, especially considering our own policie

The Affordable Observer's Watch
Although the style has been around since the 40’s the past few years have seen a growth in the popularity in the Beobachtungs-Uhren (Nav. B-Uhr or Nav. B) watches. These were worn during WWII by pilots and had some specific guidelines for their design. They had to be large (normally 55mm) as as to be easy to read, and contain luminous paint so as to be legible at night. A large crown was required so as to be operated with gloves and a movement with a hacking seconds hand.The watches from the 1940’s will run you well into the thousands of dollars, well above the budget of many a watchnerd. And the 55mm size makes them prohibitive for most wrist sizes. Fortunately a number of brands have come to our aide and provided a range of options for the watch enthusiast to consider when shopping for a watch in this iconic design.Parnis Pilot Watches$75 – $150 USD47mmAutomatic movement, type variesSource: Parnis WatchStarting on the low end, we have the Parnis brand, straight out

Suggestion please... 5235 vs 5980r
Hello...I have been eyeing the 5980r for a while now, but one of the ADs from back home phoned me this morning and offered me 5235 in stock at the moment, or wait for 5980r next month.If you were given this option, which would you pick?A few considerations:- Either piece would be my 1st Patek (and hoping the only 1 lol)- The sales person told me 5235 is much much much (did I say much :D ) more rare and more sought after - hence value will definitely increase more compared to 5980r- 5235 is slightly cheaper than the 5980r- I haven't had a Rose gold watch with brown strap - hence was thinking 5980r- I like both of them, but I don't have the budget to buy both Thanks!

Why the heck not THIS kind of Patek ad?
As effective as they are for suckers like me, its always father/son and mother/daughter pairings. I get why that makes sense. But since I enjoy the happy happenstance of having had daughters and not sons, I don't quite fit the mold.So why not something like THIS? Heh heh.Sorry for the poor copy formatting, am not a pro at Adobe, etc.
