German Watch Pricing: Thinner Margins Than the Swiss Means Higher Value
German watches enjoy a lot of appeal to many watch enthusiasts due to their quality and relatively high value for the price. No one can sum up the entirety of German watches in one bold statement, but overall, German watches are more dedicated toward usability and performance than the prestige that most Swiss watches go for.My favorite examples of German Watch makers of Glashutte, Sinn, Limes, and Temption. Each of these makers produces beautiful timepieces which are as much tools as they are works of art. Glashutte is the most prestigious of the above four being the only house-manufacture. This means they produce and develop their own movements as opposed to buying movements kits. However, house-manufactures are uncommon, and the watches they produce demand very high prices. Movements purchased from such as ETA are often higher quality that a house-movement.Sinn, Limes, and Temption each utilize movement kits, but make their own very high-quality cases. Often times these watch makers

AP Warranty & Registration
Just curious. How come the watch registration on the AP site asks for a 10 digit warranty number and the warranty number in my warranty book is 16 digits long? Anybody know?

How does this PAM48 look on me?
Hello all,I recently purchased a PAM48 and here's a wrist shot... I'd like to get some honest opinions. So I decided to go with a PAM48 because for one, I have a 6.75 wrist and secondly, I work with a computer a lot in which typing requires the bend of the wrist. the PAM104 was my second choice, I know the 44mm is the popular size but it doesn't feel comfortable as the lugs keep grazing my skin when I bend my wrist. Let's hear the opinions

Pro's/Cons of WG vs YG vs EG Daytonas.....
..........I'm asking this b/c I'm now thinking more and more about getting the Daytona over the Gold YM, but still haven't seen the former in person. Among the Daytona models, I thought for sure the WG version was the way to go b/c the silver dial is so striking against the black ceramic bezel and strap, and the white gold is obviously more subtle and less attention grabbing than either YG or EG.Having said that, my one concern with the silver dial on the WG version is dial legibility. Since the YG and EG have a few options with either YG dial/black dial or EG/black dial combos, for those who have various dial combos in YG or EG, can you share your pics and experiences with dial legibility? And for the record, my eyes aren't failing me....lol. I'm just coming from having a LV sub and a PAM 1312, both of which are super easy to read at a glance, and which I love about the watches, and which got me to love the YM (along with its matte black bezel). And for those with the WG Daytona
