5 Things to Know About the Ulysse Nardin Freak Lab
The Ulysse Nardin Freak, with its wildly unconventional no-dial/no-hands time display, was the talk of the watch world when it burst on the scene in 2001, and Ulysse Nardin has used this trailblazing timepiece as the platform �� some might say a laboratory �� for a number of new innovations since then.

waterproof 116710LN
I had a question for you guys familiar with the technical aspect of the waterproofing process I had a Sub about 10 years ago that that I had a problem with.I waited to service it about 9 years when I went in to get the service done they did an estimate at the service center and told me that somehow water or water vapor managed to cause the dial to flake is this related to steam or maybe showering with the watch on a frequent basis I also wear the watch at the gym frequently wood either the hot tub or the sauna cause any problems do you think.At the time it was about a $1,500 bill to have the dial replaced all the hands were placed and complete the service I really don't want to have to go through with that again ever by all means please give me your opinions on this

That being said, I know very little about the Rolex GMT Master, and I am hoping a GMT expert can help me out. I have the chance to buy a 16753 GMT Master which is all original right down to the factory nipple dial.

I want to add a vintage two tone GMT to my Rolex collection, but knowing very little about the GMT scares me a bit because I don't want to make a mistake and buy something that could be problematic in the future as far as service goes. I'm also curious if this is a watch that could increase in value over time. I will be greatful to anyone with and understa
