Interview With MB&F Watches Founder Max B��sser
Previous contributor to aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer Tom Mulraney posted a nice interview with MB&F's owner Max Busser. To be honest, most of the time I could care less about interviews with watch executives. It is a lot of "blowing smoke up their own asses." However, Max Busser is different, and the information provided in the interview is quite interesting if you care at all about the business side of the watch industry - especially when it comes to popular independents like MB&F (a brand that I cover pretty often).Read the Tom Mulraney interview of Max Busser here.

Crown locking screw popped off
So I have a breitling Evolution, and I looked down at my wrist and noticed that the middle crown screw is gone :( I have had the breitling evolution MOP face for about 8 years now and Im sure it's due for a service, I just emailed breitling and going to call them tomorrow for a quote... have any of you sent your watch directly into breitling to have them overhaul it? how long does it take? and if not there do you have any other recommendations on how to fix it ?

Finally got a Speedy Pro! (And too many pictures.)
I can't believe I waited this long, what a cracking watch. I bought the new 005 (hesalite) model, which I know some say is expensive, and partly paying for a useless box, but I got it at a very good price from a non-authorised dealer (I can live without the AD ��500+ cup of tea!), and the box of goodies does add a bit to the experience. I do think this watch is good value regardless, compared to most other luxury watches anyway. I'm really pleased I went for the hesalite version - the dial is surprisingly clear as a result, although I don't really notice the often talked about attractive distortion (which seems about the same as a sapphire box crystal to me). It's well built and nicely finished, fits me beautifully in my opinion and is super comfortable as a result, and so far at least keeps really good time (+5 s/d).

Vintage Constellations - need some info
Hi all,I recently can't take my eyes of the vintage 1950s/1960s Omega Constellation watches. Unfortunately I don't know much about them (yet) to make an informed buying decision. Are there any particular websites out there you recommend?So far I only really found this:omega-constellation-collectors.blogspot.ca/How much money would I have to save in order to get a nice Pie-Pan model from the 60s? I'm looking more for a SS model as am not really a gold kinda guy. (Gold markers and pointers are ok)It should look like this:.ebay.ca/itm/110866303816?...9#ht_500wt_951Has anybody ever bought from this seller? I don't want to buy a Franken watchThanks in advance!Herbert

Safer Money?
D-Blue or SD50, assuming kept stickers on and in the safe. I'm sure I have the willpower to not wear either, just wondering. Is there another watch that would be better to do this with?
