Rolex Paul Newman Daytona Ref. 6241 Exotic Dial Watch Available On James List
The Paul Newman Daytona - next to the Submariner range, this is of the most well-known collectible Rolex watches out there. There is a sort of mythos around the watch given the ambiguous connection to the movie star/pop culture hero, and the extreme fame that the Daytona collection later had. The story of the Paul Newman Daytona is a bit convoluted and complex. There was not just one watch, and Rolex never officially called any piece the Paul Newman Daytona.Unlike some people out there I am not an expert of Rolex watch history or Rolex collecting. In fact, the high-prices that some Rolex watches fetch at auction make me chuckle. For a better historical observation of the Paul new Daytona I will defer to my friend Jake at RolexMagazinewatches-dealer. He wrote a nice summary of the Rolex Paul Newman Daytona here.My favorite part of the Paul Newman Daytona story refers to the indeterminable nature of collecting. People today strive hard to predict what will become a collector's item - and

Would this work??
I have a Seamaster 2254.50 and I love it.However, I'm considering buying a 20mm Aqua Terra bracelet to fit to my SMP.I assume it will fit to my case?2nd question: would I be able to swap clasps so that the SMP deployment clasp (how awesome is this clasp?!) goes on t the AT bracelet??I do have a quality link pin tool, so the bracelet work is under control, but does anyone know if the links are of comparable sizing??Thanks....I'm kind of new to the modern Omegas....

2002 Speedmaster Flimsy?
I'm in process to acquire 2002 Speedmaster from an online retailer. Certainly Omega builds nice watches but when I tried on my coworker's Bond Seamaster, it feels very thin and light. My current watch is a 116610 Submariner. It feels solid and has substantial weight. My concern about the Speedmaster is that it might feel flimsy. Can anyone with a Speedmaster can weigh in?

How much for these Omegas?
Im not talking about any watch in particular, but I was wondering how much you would expect to pay for the Planet Ocean, Chrono and Non-Chrono, in the 42mm and 45mm sizes, pre-owned and say 6 months old. With the black bezel.So, pre-owned;42mm PO non-chrono45mm PO non-chrono45mm PO chronoThese watches are still whispering to me - just not at their AD prices!Thanks guys!

New Tudor Glamor Day/Date losing 5 seconds a day
Hi I love my Tudor Day/Date, except that after a week it's averaged a loss of 5 seconds a day. I understand that:1. It's not chronometer certified (-4-+7 seconds/day). But I also understand that its an ETA top movement, and that ETA chronometer movements are just top movements that have been sent in for certification and passed. I also understand that the 2824-2 movement was modified by Rolex in ways that should, I assume, provide additional improvement over off the shelf 2824-2s2. So, I have a top movement (modified by Rolex) that would have failed the certification test.3. So, Should I have it recalibrated (I'm assuming for no charge under warranty)? or:4. Are there any drawbacks/risks to having the case opened for the benefit of correcting one second out of COSC tolerances? (understanding that most would prefer their watches to run fast rather than slow like mine).By the way: my first post - thanks all for a great forum.
