Back to the Future: The New Hamilton Pulsomatic Automatic
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the world's first LED digital watch, made by Hamilton. The American brand is celebrating the invention of the technology that revolutionized the watch industry with the new Hamilton Pulsomatic, a digital timepiece with Swiss craftsmanship in the form of an automatic movement. The original Pulsar was named after the astronomical bodies that emit precise radio pulses. Hamilton’s new Pulsomatic has a similar look, though with LCD and not LED display, and the design still looks futuristic. The “omatic” part of the new name represents what may be the new model’s most interesting feature: it is powered by an innovative Swiss automatic movement, the H1970. Fully charged, the watch offers a 120 day power reserve.The Pulsomatic also offers a sapphire crystal, a display back for viewing the unique engine (shown below), and 50 meter water resistance. Available on a rubber strap or a steel bracelet, both versions are priced at $1545.

Changing from bracelet to strap - how to?
I am curious if you AP enthusiasts know of a way to change the bracelet of a ROO to a strap / visa versa besides taking it to an AP boutique. I recently changed my Panda from bracelet to strap and as I'm about to go on a trip, am thinking that I'd rather have it back on the bracelet so that I can take it in the water.Rather than going back and forth to AP, is there a preferred method or should I keep torturing myself and my bank account every time I go in there? Thx

Anyone every had an Omega Service at Bienne
Anyone ever went for a factory service rather than to a service centre where to be honest you've no idea who's working on the watch ? Assuming it'd be more expensive\ international courier etc so realise won't be cheapOmega Seamaster - 16 years old\ had since new. Never an issue till just after New Year when started going 5/ 10 min's slow every few days. Sent in for a service at a specific Omega service centre via a recomendation on another forum. Watch back after 5 weeks & over a 3/ 4 week period - the watch stops twice. The 2nd time it happened on my wrist mid afternoon. Service centre ask for it back. Last Thursday watch comes back - fully tested\ no fault found. Today - watch on wrist at 6.30 this morning. 1230 I notice that the watch stopped again at 1145. Been on my wrist for over 5 hours when stoppedTempted to write the service cost off\ rip up the papers & go elsewhere. If I do that it has to be 100% right. In 16 years prior to the service - not one single issue. Post s
