Kobold Soarway GMT Avantgarde Watch
Why just 25 pieces Kobold? I mean this watch is really quite nice. While I appreciate the "Avantgarde" designation, this watch isn't that weird. I could easily see myself wearing it daily. I wonder what other styles of straps it would well on? Well for just 25 pieces, they are pricey. Is that Kobold's way of recouping the development cost for the piece? Well, I will tell you what you need to know, and then you can decide whether it is too expensive. Either way, very pretty timepiece.The most avant garde aspect of this Soarway GMT is the bezel. The uni-directional diver's bezel has but one indicator on it. At the top, with a lume dot and a black ring around the "eye" just like "Alex" in A Clockwork Orange. Plus the whole bezel with its notches (like eyelashes) and the dial color contrast reminds me of this iconic "man with single eye in drag" look. Fake eye lashes on a man trying to be a man never did quite look as good since the film. In fact, I am going to dedicate the the Kobold Soar

5, 4, 3, 2, 1! To the moon!
Not sure if you folks have seen my other threads with my son wearing my watches. But this is the latest, a 3570.50. I'm loving the curved crystal on this thing. Here's the latest pictures with my son modeling the watch! To the moon!

It is Titanium 351 lighter than the 312 steel?
I love the PAM 312 and the only doubt that I have is that I read that it is quite heavy, but I found another model that is made of titanium the PAM 351 and is not worth much more than the 312 and is exactly the same except the color of the dial and golden hands. Mi question is: It is Titanium lighter than steel? What I do not like are the models that have the brushed bezel. I prefer bright chrome.Cheers...

Get your watch serviced every 5-7 years or not?
I don't know wether it's best to get your watch serviced every 5-7 years, as recommended, or as some say as long as it works and keeps good time don't send it for servicing, especially for pams I have heard a lot of negative or very negative feedback, what is your opinion on this issue?Personnally I would be more in the tendancy of not sending it as long as it works fine, the 4 watches that I wear the oldest has 1,5 years, of course my 3 pams are much older but i bought them 100% unworn brand new, in mechanical watches I have omega seamaster, 5 years, a very old omega gold chrono handwound which was bought by my father in 1955, but he wore it on special occasions, in no way as an everyday watch, and a Breitling chrono which is around 20 years, after 10 years it started loosing 5-7 minutes everyday, when I asked for a price of servicing I was told 800 euros, that was 10 years ago, since I wasn't wearing it anymore I didn't do it, so basically the experience I had is that the Breitling s

Passed on SD43 and not regretting it!
My AD camled this morning and said he has a SD43 if I'm interested! It took me a second to consider it then told him to give me till Monday to think about it. Honestly I think I will turn it down as I have a subC which I love and I think someone else who has been really wanting this watch will enjoy it more than meAm I crazy in my thinking?
