Ferragamo F-80 GMT Watch
Ferragamo watches? Another fashion brand with timepiece you'd be wise to be skeptical of at first. When a company that has never made timepieces suddenly starts to do so, then you should be wary. Delving deeper the plot thickens as all Ferragamo watches are licensed to be developed and manufactured by Timex. At this point I would not think that results have much up-market credibility. Though in this case that isn't exactly true. Ferragamo timepieces for men (especially this F-80) collection are nicely made, have good designs and materials, and contains Swiss mechanical movements. As designer watches go, these sort of fly under the radar and deserve a bit more attention.I believe that the F-80 collection debuted in about 2008.

AP RO as a daily driver
Hello all,I have always been into vintage Rolexes and Omegas. Never considered a AP until now. However the Royal Oak has been growing on me every time I see it. I have heard though, that they are not as robust as, say, a Sub for daily wear. Combine that with the fact that service cost for an AP is much higher than what RSC charges (which is already thievery IMO), I am interested to know what you as owners of the RO feel. I am looking at the 15300 or even the 14790. My wrists are 6.75 and I also tend to gravitate towards smaller watches.

End links for BB
Does anyone know the link (or is there a link) where I can get end links for my Tudor BB to wear with my non OEM leather strap...I love the strap but think it would look better with end links....TIA.

Incoming - 5711/1R
Finally picked up my 5711/1R and I am absolutely delighted with it. A just beautifully made exquisite piece. The bracelet feels silky, elegant and light and yet rather substantive due to the RG, a perfect balance. The brush finish is delicate and refined while the ever-changing chocolate dial is a delight and matches the RG perfectly. I take pretty good pics usually but boy I have done this watch no justice at all with these pics but anyway hope you enjoy them. Will take more later.

Tudor Black Bay 58
While the Rolex/Tudor Pepsi’s have everyone’s attention, the Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight is very nice (especially on rivet style bracelet).Pic by Hodinkee:
