Poll: Your Hand-Orientation & What Wrist You Wear Your Watch On?
I'm left-handed and I also prefer to wear a watch on my left wrist. That makes me somewhat unusual because the traditional "rule" when it comes to your wrist watch is that it goes on your non-dominant hand's wrist. So if I were like more people and followed the "rule," I would wear my watch on my right wrist because I am left-handed.So why don't I conform to the more typical orientation of wearing my watch on my non-dominant wrist? I don't actually know. I am pretty sure that I started wearing a watch from an extremely early age (perhaps 3 or 4years old) and no one was there to explain to me what wrist I should wear my watch on. What I probably did (as any young child does) is observe where most adults were wearing their watches �C and I followed suit.A recent e-mail from an watches-dealer reader (thanks Jonno) in Australia asked me if I knew anything about the history of wrist watches for lefties. I realized that I wasn't aware of any such "lefty watch" history, and assumed that for th

U-Boat U-1942 Limited Edition Watch: Giant Retro Italian Diver
Apparently based on a never actually made design from 1942, the limited edition U-Boat U-1942 watch is an Italian blast from the past. The story goes that the Italian Navy commissioned a special watch to be made, but it never made production. This U-1942 watch is based directly on that design - and it is really sharp looking. The oddest part of the watch is of course the crown. It extends out.. maybe too far.? It is kind of silly and phallic to be honest. I mean it works, and looks cool, but you know.Lets just say that it looks like a periscope...yea that's it. The crown is meant to have a functional use though. The idea is that it is meant to be easy to use with gloves. Easy to use meaning winding it and adjusting it. Not sure how easy it will be to release the crown while in the locked position with gloves though, but probably pretty simple. Further, I believe that the crown can be adjusted and wound underwaterwhich should be nice.The watch is big! Really big with a grade 5 titanium

Introducing: The New Rolex Datejust 41mm
Rolex has released a slew of new watches at this year's Baselworld. You may have already seen (and drooled over) the new Rolex Daytona with black ceramic bezel or the new Rolex Explorer, but one we haven't talked about yet is the new 41 mm Datejust. 1 OF 3 The Datejust, first produced in 1946, is the bread and butter for Rolex. It is one of their most iconic and popular models and the vintage versions are incredibly collectible. Another little known fact is that the ladies' Datejust is the highest selling Rolex model EVER (for real). So it is no surprise that Rolex keeps reinventing the wheel with the Datejust because, it's just a really good watch. 2 OF 3 Which brings me to the 41 mm. This "new" model features the same aesthetic and design as it's predecessors (the Datejust 36 mm and the Datejust II which is 41 mm), with a sunburst dial and glistening fluted bezel. The watch features the standard date at 3 o'clock that has moved ever so slightly and is now

Bronzo question
Hey guys,New collector here. My buddy is offering me his PAM382 for $19k without box and papers. It also has an aftermarket strap.I am 100% sure it is real. My friend lost the box, papers, and OEM strap in a recent cross-country move (he is very unhappy about it!), and is now looking to downsize his collection. Would any of you take the deal?
