Introducing The Bremont Wright Flyer, A Limited Edition Containing A Fragment Of The World's Fir
Bremont has created some pretty special limited editions in the past, including the Codebreaker (containing material from Bletchley Park) and the HMS Victory (with oak and copper from the eponymous warship). Today Bremont unveils what might be the most ambitious watch they've produced to day, the Bremont Wright Flyer. Not only does the watch contain (according to Bremont) the company's brand new proprietary movement, but it also contains an actual piece of muslin from the wing of the Wright Flyer, the world's very first airplane. Seriously.?Honestly, Bremont is the only watchmaker that could pull off something like this. As if launching its very first in-house movement wasn't enough, it has to put a piece of the world's first airplane in the watch for good measure. It's hard not to get excited about this piece, so let's dig in. 2 OF 18 via wikipedia.org The namesake aircraft, the Wright Flyer, made the world's first powered flight in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in De

Undecided, more opinions please
Well last week I asked for opinions wheather I should flip my ROC and Explorer II for a 15202 and many of you chimed in, which I really appreciated. After reading your comments and doing some meditation I decided that at this moment in time, the 15202 is not worth over $20k to me, hopefully when I get richer it will 😁.Well that being said, since the Explorer II was not really being worn that much and kind of lost the love for it, I sold it to a friend of mine, and decided to use the funds towards an AP steel diver. Well now I would like your opinion on the following question. What makes more sense in my collection? ROC and Diver? Or RO 15400 and Diver?Other than those two watches I also have a SubC. So if I keep the ROC I feel I'll be missing a dressier piece. And the RO although by no means is the same watch as the Jumbo, does share a very similar look. So option 1?Or 2?

Which AP should be the first AP?
Hello,I'm working on figuring out which should be my first. I lean towards the larger models because my wrist can handle it, have a few Panerai 47mm and no problems there. Wrist is about 7.5. Any suggestions? - I am gravitating towards the old safari or steel diver on bracelet.Thanks!

Omega SMP for Christmas
I gave my wife a wishlist a week or so back which listed (a) Sigma lens for my D70 (b) HPI Savage Nitro RC monster truck (c) TomTom Go 910 GPS After mulling and checking out the AD in Markham, I decided that an Omega was missing in my life so I decided to price out the Omega SMP bond, and not the coaxial version. I think I can get a good deal on it for about 20-30% off.So spoke with my wife, and she agreed to buy me a SMP... woohoo. However I won't be able to wear it until after the 25th
