Edox Grand Ocean Jumping Hour Watch
Things have been quiet from Edox for a while, and suddenly they present a few new models. The brand has been crawling upmarket as of late, with the pictured recent addition to the line priced at over $5,000. This is the new Edox Grand Ocean Jumping Hour, and it takes full advantage of the brand's common nautical theme, and places a unique jumping hour display in the watch. As is the trend with "open displays," you can see a bit more of the hour disc than is necessary, but only a portion of it is framed (showing the appropriate hour). The minute hand is shown as a dial the encompasses the hour display. The minute hand style is common on each of the new watches from Edox this year. For the seconds, you have one of those clever half circle displays. Basically, you look at the hand which has two sides to determine what you are counting. If the red portion of the hand if going across the display, you read the red seconds, and vice versa for the unpainted steel side.An interesting feature in

At The Bench: The Restoration Of A Tudor Advisor (Reference 7926)
There are several reasons that most people should never consider bidding on a watch that has the words “as is” or “for repair” in its description on eBay. In addition to making me have to overpay for adventurous restorations, pieces like this trade at such a small discount that it is rarely, if ever, a cost effective way to get your hands on a great vintage piece. There are exceptions, but for the most part, for collectors this is a losing gamble. This recent adventure very well illustrates this point and shows off awesome vintage Tudor in the process. Recently I have developed an unreasonable interest in wrist alarms. I had been restoring some JLC Memovoxes and the unbelievably frustrating Seiko Bellmatics when I stumbled upon this “for repair” Tudor Advisor on eBay. It was in very rough shape and not working, so for me it seemed like a good adventure. 1 OF 11 The Tudor reference 7926 was in production from 1957 until its repl

5130 Service Advice needed
OK guys, I'm totally depressed with the issue my 5130 world time is having.First, I only wear this piece about 3-4weeks total out of the year and I have had it for about 4 years now.When I first got the piece I had an issue right away where the push button for rotating the timezones on the dial got stuck where the dial and hour hands would not rotate with zero resistance when pushing the button on the case. The piece had to be sent back to Geneva for servicing, and I got it back 8 weeks later with no direct explanation to me since it was sent through the AD.Fast forward 4 years, I was wearing the piece over the weekend, and decided to shift the dial to different timezones. I got through about 5-6 cities, and then all of a sudden I lost some resistance in the pushbutton. The outer dials with the city prints stopped shifting, but the hour hand would still shift by 1 hour with each push. Whne I push the button now there is much less resistance with the hour hands still shifting, but t
