How Screwed Is Watch Industry Thanks To Apple Watch?
During the launch of the Apple Watch, myself and thousands of other bloggers tried to take in the information, while at the same time covering the news, given our own perspectives on the watch or technology industry. Apple even asked a lot of fashion bloggers to attend the Apple Watch launch, which was a curious thing, until you realized that there were about 34 different versions of the Apple Watch, to begin with, that will be available when the smartwatches begin shipping sometime in early 2015. Most notably, a range of versions in full 18k gold or rose gold cases.While Apple has not released a lot of the technical specifications about the Apple Watch, there is enough information available for myself and many other people to have a good idea of what the Apple Watch will do, how it might fit into people's lives, and how it fits next to the competition.

What astronauts wore a 145.012?
It's widely accepted now that Buzz Aldrin did not wear one as the first watch on the moon, so the question becomes, who did? What missions?I've come across some speculation that 145.012s were worn on Apollo 13, but nothing confirmed. Does anybody here know? Links would be great!

Where can I buy a White Dial for SPEEDMASTER PRO

New here. Looking for info on a used 114060
Hi folks,I'm brand new here. I'd like to buy a preowned 114060 with some character. I'd like an older one where the white on the dial has aged a bit. I love that look. (as most do, I'd imagine)I've read that there are folks who are adding aged parts to high-end fakes in order to fool prospective uninformed buyer like myself. I thought I would join here and learn as much as I can before I pull the trigger. I'd appreciate any help you can give me, or suggestions you can offer. Thanks so much!-George

Reaction to Rolexes
I am new to the hobby, but currently own 2 watches, a 116610LN and a Breitling Navitimer 01. Not that I care or am even concerned with the perceptions or opinions of others, but I find it funny that 90% of people won't comment or notice the Rolex, but a good portion notice the Breitling and comment on it being a nice watch and if I tell them what it is, they typically have never heard of Breitling. On the other hand, the watch no one notices, they typically only notice when they see the Rolex at the top. Just an observation I found amusing somewhat.
