Great News on the Service of my 5402SA!!! Now in Le Brassus!!
I know I've been away for weeks as I've been extremely busy with work and traveling every week. After all the drama on my 5402SA and the APSC in Florida back in February, I asked them to send my watch directly to the manufacture in Le Brassus. I am so glad I did!I just got the estimate and everything that needs to be done will cost way less than what Clearwater had quoted me. The new estimate $2762 vs. $4398. Isn't this just ridiculous! I guess they need some properly trained watchmakers down in FL to do better assessments on the condition of timepieces. Something else that is just great is that they also offered case and bracelet refinishing. Can't wait to see what my puppy will look like when I get it back. Yay!!!Any way, just very happy with the news and wanted to share!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. Watches are the new currency!

Falling in Love All Over Again
Have you ever rediscovered love of a watch after not wearing it for some time? I now remember why this is the only Panerai left in my collection. For me, it is the best!

BLNR help - used or new?
Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster here. Love the forum, has been very helpful in the past. I own 2 Omegas (Speedy Pro & Seamaster PO GMT), 2 Breitlings (Superocean Heritage 46 & Transocean 1461), a Tudor (Black Bay Heritage S&G), a Sinn (104), a Tag Heuer (Link) and some Seikos (SKX, Samurai, Cocktail Time). I've wanted a BLNR for a while now and I think I'm ready to pull the trigger. As you know, the BLNR is still in very high demand. ADs here in Australia won't even put my name on the waiting list or they tell me it'll be at least 2 years. For now, that leaves me with 2 options. 1) Buy a used one in decent condition, have it polished and pay a 10% premium or 2) purchase a new one from an independent watch store and pay a 30% premium. That one is brand new and would include a warranty card with my name on it. I'm not allowed to attached images to this post, but you can check out 2 pics here:bit (dot) ly / 2GfaPeNbit (dot) ly / 2IKl4pTMaybe another user can incl
