AP ROO-Chrono New 42mm winding
Hello all- I recently picked up a new watch after wearing my other new watch, the ROO new navy 42mm as a daily. It's sat in the safe for about about 4 days now. I don't keep it on a winder but wound it about 55 times. Before I wound it, the chrono looked as if it didn't have much of a reserve and was stopping.Generally, whats the power reserve on these?Was I right to wind it 50+ times like I did?Thanks!

Need parts for Omega Chronograph 2077-2
I recently acquired an Omega 2077-2 mfg. in 1939. Upon looking a schematic of the watch movement there are a couple of levers missing and the chronograph buttons are also missing. Also need hands for this watch. Anyone know where I can get the parts to repair this watch? Thanks for the help. I am newly registered with this forum.

Interesting trip to pp ad
I swung into my locale patek ad today to price out an aquanaut. After talking for a bit he offered a 10% discount and stated that patek makes about 39000 watches per year and about 10% of those are in stainless steel which is why the discounts are low on the steel models, he also said that they can not keep aquanaut on their shelves and have a waiting list for when one does come in. The funny part is that as I was leaving he offered me 12% off a steel aquanaut on rubber if I paid with anything other then an Amex. I showed interest and he checked his computer for inventory and informed he does not have any at any of his stores ( which is what he had told me when I originally asked) but will call me if he gets one in. Other then the salesmen bs is there any truth behind his production numbers and steel vs precious metal numbers. Just curious.

14K repeaters
HelloI am a pocket watch enthusiast and i few quite a nice collection. Some for sale too.Anyway, i recently purchased this 14k quarter repeater and it was not cheap. My feeling of first glance said it was a Jules Jurgensen, but now i'm not so sure.Any help or guide to identify the manufacturer of this watch is highly appreciated !!The movement seem to be high grade with wolf teeth, and tried LeCoultre, Patek, Vacheron, Jules Jurgensen, Matile, Ed. Perregaux, Breguet, but no match. The curiosity is the twin bridge near the balance staff. The movement cover reads: Repetition a Quarts, a 5 digit serial no., and several medals. The dial does not say anything. Under the dial it is writen something like Swiss, Brevet, and a no. but nothing helpful to identify the watch as i already tried all the sources of my convenience: catalogues, internet, collectors, friends, etc.Pictures:img846.imageshack.us/img846/8797/img9041b.jpgimg442.imageshack.us/img442/2308/img9030e.jpgimg23.imageshack.us/img23/
