Seiko Astron Solar GPS Chronograph Limited Edition Styled By Giugiaro Design
Over the last few years here?at?watches-dealer,?we have been closely covering?the interesting developments of not just smart watches, but also of GPS controlled watches. One of the?most important models �C and in fact trend-setters �C is the Astron line by Seiko. We have, of course, covered the original in 2012 (hands-on here), and?since then, we have also?checked out the new-for-2014 �C and quite striking-chronograph version as well (hands-on here).?For 2015,?along with six new non-limited versions, the chronograph line is extended by the Seiko Astron Solar GPS Chronograph Limited Edition styled by Giugiaro Design.The name Giugiaro Design, or Giorgetto Giugiaro?may sound familiar to those with a more extensive interest not just in watches but also in cars: he has designed instantly recognizable and unique cars like the?Audi 80, BMW M1, Lancia Delta, Bugatti EB118, along with dozens of?others.

My New Omega NATO Strap....
Well I went into my local Omega boutique last night to look into adding a bracelet to my Speedmaster 9300 and ended up taking this one home. It is still a little stiff due to the leather bottom, but it should break in with time.It is a nice switch up from the leather strap and a new bracelet is still in my future.

Nautilus strap warning
This is for those who want to order straps for Nautiluses but not from Patek, Nautilus straps have a special titanium construction, otherwise a strap without it will fall off, so the strap maker needs to destroy an original Patek strap, 490 euros, to take out the titanium construction and make a new strap with it, I went to see ABP, they told me it's hard to make so 640 euros, didn't do it as 640 plus 490 was a bit too much, will see when one of my straps is dead, but don't make a strap without the titanium piece inside, your watch will fall, a strap maker who is not honest or who has poor knowledge of Patek might say nothing or say it will be ok, I was at ABP and asked Patek and the answer is don't ever put a strap on it without this metal part, you will regret it��Here are a few pics of the straps, you see it's not just leather��P1000835.JPGP1000834.JPGP1000833.JPG
