Sarpaneva Korona K0 Wuoksi Watch
The avant garde dress watch that inspired a sport watch now inspires a dress watch. This new model from Finnish Sarpaneva is called the Korona K0 Wuoksi and is based on the brand's first dive watch called the?Korona K0 that we showed you hands-on here. While highly?evocative?of the brand's signature look, the piece feels pleasantly fresh (while familiar).When I discussed the Korona K0 "Ruler of Water" dive watch (linked to above), the first reader comment on the post was "it's just not a Sarpaneva without the?weirdo?moon face." Perhaps Stepan Sarpaneva agreed with him a bit because this new K0 Wuoksi is the original K0 with a new type of moon phase indicator (including a strange looking face) in place of the inner rotating diver bezel.It amazes me all the things Sarpaneva can do with merely modifying the date wheel disc on Soprod A10 automatic movements. Once again the Swiss A10 automatic gets its date wheel modified to being a moon phase indicator. By the way, the caseback of the watc

Ap roc 26331 black face vs 26320 black face
Hi all second doubt: I tried both roc 41 mm black and I think the new one is way more balanced in term of proportion except the date that is uglyHowever I still think the sub dials on the new one are really shouting loud than ever. Yesterday even without looking to the dial I could feel them So I think is going to make me tired about itI tried also the blue new one but somehow the dial looks to me not clear probably because the contrast is less evident than the blackWhat is your opinion? Thanks a lot

where to source dial to chronomat 13048?
As title says, im contemplating buying an older and quite nice 13048 SS/18k. Only problem ist that it has the white dial. This model IMHO suits the black dial alot more. Soo, where to source this? Much easier if it was omega as ofrei/ebay/watchadoo/i could go on and on has tons of parts. And im not interested in getting 13050 dial. Needs to be correct.thanks

Seamaster, suggestions for a less flashy band?
Hello, I have the Seamaster professional 41mm (20mm) band (the James Bond style), its the Quartz one and while I like and appreciate the quality of the band am looking for something less blingy. I am not a fan of nylon for hygenic resons (watch will be in the water frequently) and not a huge fan of silicone/rubber b/c I like the watch to slide to the bottom of my wrist vs. getting stuck to it.Also, I like the clasp on the OEM band b/c its quick and I trust it. I don't like the traditional ones you have to stick through a hole, takes too long. Also, I like the expandable feauture of the OEM one, its a must for wetsuits.What are my options out there (Omega or other brands) other then a brushed ss one with expansion clasp? (pls let me know if any simple Submariner style brushed ones as well with the expension).Are there rubber/silicone bands out there that use a clasp and have an expension or wet suits?? TIA
