IWC Aquatimer Watches For 2014: Charles Darwin, Galapagos Islands, Bronze, The Deep Three, And A Perpetual Calendar
Less than two weeks ago, we brought you a?sneak peak at IWC's handsome new Aquatimer dive watch collection for 2014. We recommend checking that post for a bit of extra information, as well as for context on how IWC has been releasing new models and for some history behind their well-regarded Aquatimer dive watch. Even though the SIHH 2014 trade show isn't for another couple of weeks, we have new, interesting information that will help you make sense of the entire range of IWC Aquatimer models for the new year. We don't have pictures of everything (yet), but we will tell you what you need to know until we can follow-up with a full hands-on post after the show later in January.IWC's tactics of late remain true into 2014. There is less focus on movements, and more on cases, dials, and overall collection designs. In fact, IWC probably has enough movements right now and is probably working on tweaking their existing family of calibers versus trying to make new movements. In our previous pos

TimeFactors Speedbird III (PRS-22) Hands-On
Sit back, pour yourself a drop of your favourite and have a think…If someone told you that you could get a proper Flieger from a boutique maker, numbered case and dial, in-house design, screwed-in crown tube (none of this pressed-in stuff), 80,000 A/m soft-iron inner case and a top-grade ETA 2824-2 movement, what would you guess the price tag would read? ?��3,000? ?Maybe a snip at ��2,000?Now we've started, a couple more questions…Where would you expect this paragon of low-volume horology to come from? ?La Locle? ?Geneva? ?La Chaux-de-Fonds? Glash��tte?And what would the logo on the dial read? ?Omega, possibly. ?IWC, perhaps. ?Breitling or Bremont, maybe?I'll bet you a pint in my village local (should you be lucky enough to find yourself in Bampton's splendid Morris Clown) that your answers are not, respectively, ��470, Sheffield and Timefactors.From South Yorkshire, Eddie Platts, Timefactors' owner, has been shooting across the bows of the branded Swiss watch industry since 19

Seamaster Chronograph on my wrist
I'm posting a thread about an Omega on the Rolex Forums? Yup.While I am close to getting a Rolex, I decided that I would still purchase a chrono that I've been quite interested in for some time now. The Omega Seamaster Chronograph.Starting in less than a week but lacking the funds to buy a Rolex, this Omega will be the watch to accompany me to 29 States as I do a job for my employer. I'm very impressed by the build quality of this piece. The lume is incredible, the time keeping is definitely SOSC and if I were to compare this watch to another brand/make it would be IMO the Breitling Chronomat series. My boss who is a diehard Breitling guy had to admit that this watch is a pretty nice example from Omega, who he makes constant fun of. I may have planted some doubt in his mind I don't however like the pins in the bracelet and would prefer screws on this but I can live with that. So, here it is in a quick shot from my SLR.

So many beautiful vintages...
As you know, I've been hunting for a pie-pan Constellation... in my search, I've come across so many gorgeous old Omegas that I may have to re-think my quest. The old moonphases, for example...Oh, dear! What should I do?

GMT Master Rolesor CHNR and AP 15400SR
Hello,Does the forum think it would be too redundant to have these two watches in the same collection, both being two-tone?
