Introducing: The NOMOS Glash��tte Neomatik 'First Edition' Watches, With Automatic Caliber DUW 3001, Launching In Ten New Models
NOMOS Glashütte has been around since 1990, believe it or not – here at HODINKEE we find it hard to imagine that the company’s already a quarter century old, because they’ve managed to keep a sense of inventiveness in how they present themselves, and in their watches, that makes them seem perpetually fresh. None of this is an accident, of course – in fact, a big part of the reason that NOMOS has as much goodwill from the watch community as it has, stems from its obsessive concentration on getting all the details just right. We’ve all seen innumerable watches from innumerable brands that almost work, but that have that one niggling detail that, like a puncture in a balloon, lets all the air out of a design. NOMOS, on the other hand, manages to get all the details right again, and again, and again, with almost eerie consistency – and with an equally eerily consistent design language, which could easily start to seem repetitive or monotonous, but d

Am I crazy for wanting a 3750.50?
As the thread title reads, am I crazy? I've always loved the looks and history behind the watch but never took the plunge. I guess you can say my experience and my friend's experience with Omega haven't been the best in the past. Granted, my problems were with vintage pieces that kept breaking but his problem was with a modern WhiteGMT that kept stopping AND he was one of the unlucky owners of a stubborn co-axial. But still, I really want the Moon Watch...

Cost of re-filling the 5127G caseback? (had it engraved)
I have a 5127G which was engraved with initials upon purchase.Unfortunately, I need to sell the watch and was wondering if anyone has had experience refilling engravings.I've talked with Patek AD and service center and I was told a) by AD that it might cost $1000-2000, and b) by service center that they typically refill it using laser or something to that effect and the cost is determined on a case-by-case basis.Have any of you used such a service from Patek?

Tried on a Patek today, first time...
Though I am not ready to research and start obsessing about the Patek brand, I was able to try a few on today at an AD, here is the gold one. Very nice watch. The platinum one that they had came with clear caseback, it was a very nice movement. Both watches were priced too high for me, but it sure was fun to put the rolls-royce of watches on my wrist however brief...

Panerai to Flip (maybe for Profit)! Need Advice ASAP
Hi All,I pose this question to the Panerai experts. Have another chance to buy ANY Panerai (in stock) for 20% off and no tax. If purchased, I probably would sell immediately, although no guarantee as I've fallen in love with the brand. So, I'd like your opinions on which one you would buy for that purpose and why? I'm not looking at any special/limited editions, but was thinking a GMT perhaps. And please, I'm not interested in being called out for BS. If you doubt me, I'm happy to PM anyone, especially those in SoCal:). Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
