Eberhard & Co. Champion V Watches
For 2012 Eberhard & Co. will release these two rather clean looking sport watches called the Champion V. These are new versions of older Eberhard Champion watch collection pieces released about 20 years ago. The same sober looks are maintained while the Champion V watches are more modern in every way. I don't know why, but in their press release each time they write "Champion V," the Roman numeral 5 is done in a red font.There are going to be two distinct Champion V models.

Buying vintage

I thought the two second hands would run at the same rate.

Submariner Flat Four 50th Anniversary
HiCan anyone out there help ?I purchased a brand new Flat 4 from an authorised UK dealer back in March 2004 and have all the relevant paperwork including purchase receipt. This watch has been stored away and only very occasionally worn (max 10 times).On looking at the watch today for the 1st time I have noticed that there is a querk within the dial face, ie the batons and minute markers do not align as they should - see picture attached, in particular 30 mins in relation to position to the 'Swiss Made'This watch is totally 100% original without any servicing or modifications since 2004 !My question is does this decrease or increase the potential value of the watch ? I cannot understand how this ever passed the Rolex QCThanksTrimmy
