Speedmaster apollo soyuz 311.30.42.30.99.001
Hi all, So I signed up here determined to find out more about Rolex watches and eventually to get me one. But a couple of weeks ago I discovered this Apollo SOYUZ watch - and I think instead of Rolex I now want to buy me one of those.Would any owners like to share their findings in regards to this watch - issues or otherwise?Regards, -V

Here's a bit of a rare bird...Vintage Seamaster Chronometer
Just got this one back from my watchmaker after a routine overhaul. This is an all original circa 1969 Omega Seamaster Chronometer Automatic with quick set Date with the highly acclaimed cal. 564 Chronometer movement. This watch is considered fairly rare (especially in this condition) due to the fact that the cal. 564 Chronometer was typically only seen in the Omega Constellations of this era. I just love the classic size, golden dial with matching gold applied Omega logo and stick hour markers with the matching gold hands...quite the package I must say. Not only does it look good and wear very comfortably with the original omega bracelet; but it also keeps incredibly accurate time. One of my favorites in my recently slimmed down eight watch rotation.Frank

Does anyone have a...
Speedmaster Day-Date..?? If so I would love to see pictures and have some input. I am looking at getting another non-Rolex watch for the collection and have narrowed it down to the Omega day-date or the Hamilton Day-date chrono ref# H71516137 42mm I know there is a GREAT price discrepancy between the two... Any help would be appeciated!!!

But i am still a watch beginner and only own a Rado, DW and few other basic watches but have been an admirer of Rolex DJ and Omega Speedmast/Seamaster for a long time. Being I'm in the UK and this site seems very heavily focused on USA seller and AD's and I just don't know where i can buy the watch?I have been looking at the ads from AD's on this forum but not sure if i can trust them as i don't want to buy a fake and especially when shipping abroad. So ideally i need a recommendation for UK/London sellers who are reasonably priced for a used model, my budget is 3-4k GBP. Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy or should i risk online from USA? This is the type of watch, but i find this site watchfinder slightly expensive. I will be wearing this casually and at work, smooth bezels seem to be cheaper, is the f
