Citizen Satellite Eco-Drive Watch: Gets Time From Space
Atomic clock radio signal syncing watches are so last year. Citizen just decimated the coolness factor of those watches with the Satellite Eco-Drive watch. This timepiece isn't just a concept, but will actually be produced as a limited edition later this year - and may have its tech show up in later watches. In a nutshell, the watch keeps its time super accurate from syncing with the navigational satellites that orbit Earth as opposed to syncing with radio signals that are broadcasted from local atomic clocks.Atomic clocks lose one second of time every 100,000 years or something like that. Maybe even longer. The point is that you'll be long dead before they are off by even a fraction of a second. Your standard quartz watch movement is accurate to within about 15 seconds a month. Syncing to an atomic clock is a good idea, and has traditionally been done in watches that do this by relying on radio signals that atomic clocks emit. However, there aren't atomic clocks all over the world, an

Graham-London has created two powerful bi-compax chronographs
Each model from the line is immediately distinguishable due to its spectacular design and an impressive array of professional features. In its unending quest for excellence, Graham-London has created two powerful bi-compax chronographs, equipped with tachymeter and GMT functions. The name of the collection, which derives from right-angled sharp turn of the Silverstone Circuit, the Stowe Corner, as well as the bright colors employed in the watch design, offer a worthy homage to racing events of the 1960s.

I did not listen to advice on this forum....
Hello AP lovers and fans.I would like to firstly offer my apology for not listening to the advice given on this forum.I read the posting at the top of all listings - warning about buying a pre-owned AP.I am sorry - but I am not of the means to afford a brand new AP.I also wanted the 14790ST - the 36mm being the best size for me. (at least I could afford it after selling a few watches - Rolex Explorer II, Omega Speedie and Breitling SuperOcean.I started the hunt and turned up a lovely piece on Timezone being sold by a really nice watch enthusiast. He wanted high money for the piece (about $6000-) but it had been recently serviced by an ex-AP service repair watch maker.I paid for the watch and received it after the usual shipping delays.The watch was beautiful.After a few weeks - I noticed the watch was sometimes stopping before midnight.The seller sent me the photocopy of the service receipt. He definitely did service the piece.I took it to my trusted watch maker.... he told me the f

Omega 2500d vs 2500c
Does anyone have any in depth info as to the improvements to the 2500d over the c? I have done some research and found varying info pertaining to the three tier movement similar to the 8500, but nothing as to why it was changed or what real world improvements can be expected. Also, does anyone have a definitive way of knowing which POs have the 2500d? Some are saying it can be differentiated by the serial number and the date wheel font, though I don't know that this is definitive. Thanks!!!!

How to get to try on blue Nautilus?
Greetings,The Nautilus (either 5711 or 5712) is my grail watch, but despite visiting many ADs, I've ever been able to find one to try on. Every AD in my area tells me the wait time is months or years for a blue Nautilus of any kind (particularly the 5711), that you must put a 100% deposit of full MSRP down for them to even consider asking to get one in (and no guarantee it'll arrive in any timeframe short of years), and that there's no way they'd ever get one in stock for people to try on.I'd really rather not spend that kind of money without even seeing the watch in person, particularly if I don't know when (if ever) it will come in. Does anyone have any suggestions of how I might get a chance to handle one? Has anyone had success at an AD in the Northeast US? Any help would be appreciated.
