Tim's Horology At Halftime: The Best Of 2015 To Date
Welcome to the 2015 Horology Halftime Show, presented by hindsight. The official arrival of summer means that Baby New Year clich��s are as dead as your old Synchronar 2100, and in our era of instant analysis, it's high-time for a look back at a few?of high horology's best moments so far. Sit back, read on, and celebrate the finest plays of 2015's first two quarters.Boldest Move: Patek Philippe Calatrava 5524G.While the speculative impact of the Apple Watch has inspired the largest volume of controversy during the year to date, the most intense debate raged around Patek Philippe's first take on the evergreen pseudo-vintage pilot's watch genre. The Patek Philippe Calatrava Travel Time 5524G left some very self-important folks tying themselves in knots and exchanging CAPS-LOCK carbine rounds in online fora. For that entertainment value alone, the more jocular members of the enthusiast fraternity collectively owe Thierry Stern a free round at his favorite watering hole in Plan-les-Ouates
Warranty claim
Hi I have an omega seamaster professional chrono and it was losing time and the pins on the strap where working themselves loose. So under warranty I put it in to be repaired at the omega boutique in Glasgow on the 17th of February. But I still do not have it back this to me is an incredible amount of time to have a watch for a fairly simple repair. Should I expect some compensation for this?
Questions regarding the new Bond Bracelet?
I'm new to the Omega world, so I wanted to reach out to the experts around some questions I have.What are the improvements over the previous Bond bracelet?Also, will the new Bond bracelet that comes with the SMPc fit an older SMP (2531.80 or 2220.80)?Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Rolex 5100: Beta 21
Hello everyone,This is my first post and I hope that I am posting in the correct thread. If not please let me know and I will repost in the correct one.I have recently come across a Rolex Quartz, model 5100, NO. 252 in 18k yellow gold. It is in great shape with some dents and wear but it is minor. It also has the origanal box and service papers from servicing in 1982.I am just wondering how to figure out it's value and also if I decide to part ways with it the best avenue to go about selling it. I have just checked out Chrono24 and I'm aware their pricing is a bit out to lunch but there are several available foe $25K to $140K!!! Is this correct?I have attached pictures and appreciate any advice.Thanks,
