Watch Experts Network: #TBT Seiko 6105-8110
There's always a beginning to the story: something that draws one's interest to a certain brand. Today's #TBT relates to that beginning, for me at least, and highlights a popular watch in vintage circles outside of just those who admire the brand name on its dial. It's a watch that has gained interest amongst fans of divers, military pieces, movie-related timepieces, and, most commonly, admirers of vintage Seikos. Today's #TBT is about the vintage Seiko 6105-8110. The Seiko 6105-8110 is the watch that drew me into vintage Seiko. I can't quite remember how I …End of the excerpt.

BEST FROM: watches-dealer & Friends August 15, 2014
Omega has been mighty impressive lately, releasing watches that are not only aesthetically attractive but also technically competent. One of their biggest announcements this year at Baselworld was its new Master Co-axial movement. Any Omega watch with this movement is virtually anti-magnetic, and not only that, comes with a longer than average warranty. And in this roundup, we will be taking a closer look at Omega's new Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial watches, which have been fitted with this new movement.Next, we visit the workshops of a little known brand called Julien Coudray 1518 and find out why they are one of the few true blue-blooded manufactures in the business. We also take the time to talk to legendary director James Cameron about his relationship with Rolex and his thoughts about the recently released Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller D-Blue dial watch. Finally, we examine some of the pitfalls a watch owner might face when it is time for his watch to be serviced, and also learn how to s

Perrelet Diamond Flower Prestige Edition Ladies Watches
Given that whole "if money were no object" thing, one of the my top choices for modern women's watches is the Perrelet Diamond Flower. It mixes sport, style, complexity, luxury, and visual fun so well. While the collection starts in the $10,000 range, these limited Prestige Edition Diamond Flower watches are colorful creations with prices in the $35,000? to over $100,000 range (depending on the mixture of gold, diamonds, and other precious gems). It is one of those rare fun luxury watches that is elegant but doesn't take itself too seriously. Don't forget that the Diamond Flower features Perrelet's P-181 automatic double rotor movement. So the lotus flower on the dial spins with the automatic rotor in the back. Check out the gallery below for more of them, and see my full article on them below as well.See my Perrelet Diamond Flower Prestige Edition watches article on Haute Living here. #gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gall

Roo too fast
Hope you guys can give your thoughts on this.Took out my roo from the safe after close to a month and a half of sitting there.Winded it about 20 turns and I put it on. After about half an hour, I noticed it went 15 minutes ahead of the actual time. I observed it about half an hour later and it was running 25 minutes ahead of the actual time. It went on for the whole day.I kept it overnight and when I looked at it, it didn't gain anymore time so I adjusted to the actual time and now it keeps the right time.Got it from a trusted seller here last April. It was just serviced and still has about a year on the service warranty. Did I over wind it ? Would appreciate any thoughts.

Definitive Omega mesh measurements
I am frequently asked Will the Omega mesh fit my _____ inch/cm wrist? Will I need an extension?So here's the scoop on the Omega mesh:Total bracelet length is 15.0cm in the outermost micro adjustment.The innermost micro adjustment will reduce the length by 1.5cm. (There are five adjustment positions.)Each extension will add 2.0cm to the length.Needless to say, you will need to add the lug to lug length of your individual watch head. These measurements are bracelet only.Hope this helps.Fr. John?
