Omega Fan Writes Own 007 Skyfall Theme Song To Beat Of Co-Axial Escapement
Adam Optican wants an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean so badly he wrote a song to the beat of its Omega in-house made calibre 8500 Co-Axial movement. The song is a fan redo of the 2012 James Bond 007 Skyfall movie theme. This is of course appropriate because Omega is the official watch of James Bond, was featured in the movie, and Omega produced a limited edition Seamaster Planet Ocean Skyfall watch to go with the film.The song's tempo precisely matches the 25,200 bph (beats per hour) of the co-axial escapement in the caliber 8500 movement. You'll also hear that Optican inserted the sound of the escapement ticking in various sections of the song. I am pretty sure that is him singing as well. Eat your heart out Adele. How did Optican do it if he doesn't yet have the Seamaster Planet Ocean of his dreams? According to him he recorded the output sound of an ETA 2824 movement which runs at 28,800 bph and mathematically slowed down the audio to match what it would sound like at 25,200 bph.This

Are gold-on-black Speedmasters (3695.50.31) rare?

Ok what would you do?
Here's the scenario Back in 2010 I bought from an AD one of the first 5205G with the darker dial,to arrive in the UK. I took an immediate like of it from the first photo of its launch at the Basel show that year. Fast forward 2 years and I was struggling to read the time in certain light. So I returned it back to Patek, who had kindly agreed to change the dial for the lighter one.Not long after I had it back, I saw a beautiful 3940R, so the 5205G had to go. So I sold it to a reputable grey dealer here in the UK.Now fast forward to the present day.While scanning this dealers website, as you do I saw that they had a 5205G. Out of interest, I contacted them and yes, low and behold it is my old Patek. They had sold it and then taken it back against another watch.Well my imagination took over and I wondered if I should try and return it to the fold.The problem is that I don't have the funds.So my dilemma is this.Would you exchange your current Pateks, which are:5711A from 2012 B&P and
