Bremont B-1 Marine Clock
"All hands on Deck! Everyone is required to meet the newest member of the crewGentlemen, I've called you here so that you can meet the new clock. His name is Bremont, and he is going to be our new B-1 Marine Clock aboard the ship. You are ordered to treat him like one of us. He is better looking that most of you aboard, and I say don't say this lightly - Bremont's life if probably worth more than any of yours. Perkins! Yes you. I am assigning you to Bremont maintenance and security duty. You are required to check in with Bremont to wind him each 4 weeks. You aren't allowed to forget. He is mechanical, but not perpetual. Also, and just as important - in the event the ship goes down, or we are in a some particularly nasty weather - you are to secure this life preserver around Bremont. He is water tight, but won't float. I can't afford to lose Bremont. You will value him over your, and other people's lives! Do not disappoint me...."That is pretty much how I imagine life aboard a ship woul

I am about to purchase my first panerai. My question is around size...42 vs 44 vs 47...I now wear a 39.5 IWC Portuguese that wears big but wars perfectly on me...But the panerai 44 and 47 mm sizes concern me as bring too overpowering. Average size wrist, etc. Thoughts?

Mario Paci straps: a brief review
I ordered 4 straps by Mario Paci recently, and they promptly arrived today. I've installed 3 of them and snapped a couple of shots. The MP straps are fabulous! They're made of thick hides, rich in color and aroma. They arrived firm, but soften quickly as they're broken in (which I did all day).As I have small 6.5 wrists, I ordered all but one strap in 115/75 size. This fits fine, with the buckle fastened at the 2nd or 3rd hole, but it leaves a very short tail. Due to the thickness of the straps, consider ordering one size longer when ordering (125/80 in my case). MP makes this recommendation on their order page as well.All the straps I ordered came with sewn-in buckles that are very robust. I would have preferred to use my stock Panerai buckles, which are smaller, but as I said the buckles are sewn in; furthermore, the straps themselves are not tapered, so the stock Panerai buckles I own wouldn't fit anyway. That said, the buckles themselves are well built, nicely finished, and look

SS Rolex Sports Watches Availability
Once upon a time you could find SS Sub's, Sub dates, GMT, Sea Dwellers and the like in AD windows and purchase over the counter as I'm lucky enough to have a SUB and GMT when you could. Are we now in an age where these will be like Daytonas and just not available to purchase in store going forward???
