Tell me about Omega SM GMT - 50th anniv 2234.50.00
Hi,Can you guys tell me something about this watch. I cannot find too much information about it online. It caught my eye as I was researching GMT watches among various brands. It seems like a cheaper alternative to the Rolex GMT II.1. Do you know when was the last time it was produced ?2. What would be a reasonable price for a excellent condition of this watch ?3. Any comment on the movement of this watch? I assume it's not the in-house one made by Omega but ETA, correct ?4. Could you post some pictures if you happen to have the watch ?5. Is the watch comfortable to wear ?Many thanks to everyone

Seamaster Stopped Continued
My wife has the mid-size Bond Seamaster. Its been in service for 18 months. It has stopped running. It has been well cared for, but was dropped onto tile about 10 or 12 days before it suddenly stopped. So, I am not sure if there is any connection between the event and the problem. When it first stopped, I wound it and it ran for four hours before stopping for good. Any ideas as to the most likely problem?

Please share your views and help me decide: Patek Philippe's 5396R-012 vs 5205R-001
All,I am interested in adding a Patek Philippe annual calendar to my collection and, after quite some deliberation, have narrowed the selection to the 5396R-012 and the 5205R-001. Both pieces appeal to me and are ultimately excellent interpretations of this complication, whilst each has its own unique character. I have sought to highlight some of my headline thoughts below;5396R-012+ A relatively more clean dial design+ Fantastically-formed Breguet numerals+ Supplied on a folding clasp deployant buckle+ Slimmer case+ A classic interpretation built on the iconic Calatrava case design philosophy- Complications are relatively more obscured and less easy to read5205R-001+ Spectacularly-scuplted and skelotonised lugs alongside an interesting concave (but appearing convex due to high-polishing) bezel+ Easier to read annual calendar complications, whilst the moonphase is the same as the 5396 variants+ A modern interpretation that appears to have greater versatility, being slightly more casual

Flipped and bought again
Hi TRFers,As someone relatively new to Rolex allow me to ask you this:What Rolex have you sold only to buy it (same model) again after awhile, and why?Thank you for your replies.
