Review of the Ball Engineer Master II Diver From WatchReport.com
I came across Ball watches when I was looking for something distinctive and unique; something that combines the tradition of a good automatic movement with modern functionality; something that stands out without being ostentatious. The result was the Ball Engineer Master II Diver you see here.

Broad Arrow...
My only watch is a 16610 Submariner Date and lately I've been trying to figure out what my next watch would be.I wanted a watch with GMT function but I never got into the old GMT-Master II for some reason, then I saw the new GMT-Master II C online and fell in love with it. Over time though it started looking a bit too busy to me, the maxi dial, and the polished center links, and the large font on the bezel... a bit much. Now I'm not sure I'd want a GMT-Master II.I've also been wanting a chronograph watch but the Daytona isn't really an option (not that I can afford or find one here anyway) but I also don't like the fact that it doesn't have the date.So... Logically I turned to Omega They're great and good-looking watches and many of them combine all these functions. I tried out the Planet Ocean but it was way too big and heavy for me.I checked out the Speedmaster and I like it a lot, but I can't really make up my mind on which one I want.The Speedmaster Day-Date and the Speedmaster Dat

How long does it take to craft a Patek Philippe?
Just looking to educate myself on the actual brand of Patek Philippe, and how they assemble their watches etc, just to have an idea of how things work.I was asked by a friend why they were so expensive, and though I gave a fair explanation, I feel like I should know more about it, since I am looking to own one later this year! According to this website.Shoppist: How long does it take to craft a Patek watch?Stern: An example, a simple movement is minimum four years of work before you can present it. A complicated one, we’re talking about six years approximately. And a very complicated one, like a minute repeater or a tourbillon, this is about eight years.Is this legit?4 years for a simple three hand watch?From this site.phillymag/shoppist/20...ppe-president/Edit. Does anyone know where I can get exact information about their movements?How many parts, etc.?Thank you!

Patek 5167 price consideration (Sell rolexes for a 5167?)
Hi guys.I know the topic may be discussed before.I consider to sell off some of my new Rolex++ to acquire a PP or a AP. I have had AP 15300. Very nice watch, however, it was not 100% new and I needed cash at that time. Now, I tend to like new watches since I am getting older and consider to keep my watches - mainly Rolexes.Is it a good idea to sell new SubC 114060 and a nice VC Overseas 42042 + add cash to acquire a PP5167 or a AP15450? (My other Rolexes are keepers, since SubC is easiest to get again later.)5711 is better compred with 15450, however, the price of the 5711 is insane. How can PP price 5167 with rubber and less complicated case more than 15450 (and the 15400)? The 324 is less complicated than 3120 as well. Yes, both movements have their own issues (Non hacking, date change issue vs jumping min hands when time set, 3Hz). Just because the brand name? I know PP sounds better than AP, but how can we defend a rubber 316L steel watch with less complicated movement costs more t
