Royal Oak Polishing Question
Hey everybody. While my 15300 is off at the AP service center, I was thinking about their refinishing service. Along with my free repair they offered to do a refinishing of case and bracelet for around $200. I think I'm going to decline this option since it is in pretty good shape, but it got me thinking about it anyway. When AP does the refinish, will it take some of the awesome sharp edges off or is AP so good that it really will look like new. I have heard that you can only polish a royal oak 3-4 times, so is the difference visible after every polish? Interested to hear from others who have had this service done. Thanks!Justin
LiquidMetal: does it live up to hype?
I currently do not own an Omega, but saw that at least one of their models has a Liquidmetal case. If someone owns one, I would appreciate feedback on scratch resistance and weight compared to Titanium or other metals.I visited the Liquidmetal website and naturally it placed LM above Ti, steel, etc. in all categories. And Apple has made several proprietary contracts with LM, suggesting the iPhone6 or another Apple device will have a LM case.But I was hoping to hear from an owner about the LM properties. And if it is so great, why aren't other major watch makers using it?Thanks in advance.
Band ruined by mall vendor - advice needed!
Hi all,I did a really dumb thing and let a vendor in a mall who asked if I wanted my watch cleaned for free polish it with a some sort of cloth. He polished it so much that the graded finish on the band is now highly polished!! It looks terrible!I took it to a really good watch maker Melbourne where I live and he said that the graded / matte finish is done by the factory and he doubts that anyone here in Australia can fix it - not even the official swatch service centre that handles Omega service for australia! I'm really disappointed about this, any advice?Should I buy a new band? If so, from where and how much might this cost? Thanks for your help!
Help! 5196r v 3445
Probably buying my first and only Patek today. Looked at tons of Calatravas and these two are finalists. Aside from my aesthetic preferences, which I know has to be the final judge, is there anything I should know about comparing these two? It's from a reputable vintage dealer. Many, many thanks!!!
Predictions anyone?
With Panerai gradually moving in house, or should I say already have what will happen to the demand and prices of the following discontinued models like the 000,005,111,112?The above models had so much to offer, something we don't see in the range anymore. An easily serviceable ETA movement, lugs that use screws instead of push pins , a screwed case back instead of a pushed one (1000,1005), sandwich dials (only reserved for top models now). It's sad how lately I've been reading up on the brand and they are moving upscale. All the features stated are gone and when I went to the boutique hoping to get my hands on their new entry level models like the 510,560 I was sad to see that they didn't have sandwich dials.
