Timex T-Series Automatic Watches
This is new to me, and I am not sure if you can get these in the US (but similar Timex watches in the US are available). These are Timex T-Series automatic mechanical watches. Pretty decent looking? mechanical watches from the brand known for quartz, quartz, and more quartz. Movements are 22 jewel automatics with a power reserve indicator and 24 hour hand. There is of course the time and the date. I believe the movements are Timex exclusives and have a 36 hour power reserve. The watches are in steel with sunburst decorated dials - in a few colors in addition to the black (such as white and blue dial colors). Along with the metal bracelet, there is a crocodile patterned black or brown leather strap.The T-Series Automatic watches take the legibility and practicality that Timex is known for, and gives it a bit of a higher-end push. Style is contained in the functional, no nonsense exterior. While very characteristically Timex, they are rarities compared with what you see mostly in the US.

Am I the only one who cannot understand...
Omega?Let me explain...this coincides with numerous posts about the thickness and comfort of the PO.I have a 42mm PO 8500 and have very strong feelings about it.First....it is way too thick. It does not have any satisfactory adjustment for the band and angers me almost every day.It is stunning to look at and the movement is awesome. But I cannot make it fit properly and comfortably.Taking it on and off constantly and/or not wearing it because of this is maddening. In fact I have barely worn it over the year I've owned it because of this.So what do I do? The Rolex Sub C or Datejust ii fit beautifully. However, the PO has essentially become a joke in terms of resale. It appears the only realistic option without opening the wallet and take a huge loss is to buy a 20 year old Explorer II. Omega is so close to catching Rolex in terms of movements and design....but without comfor what do you have?Just my 2 cents.
