AkriviA Tourbillon Regulator Watch
Like any parent will tell you, one of the greatest joys in life is watching your child mature into a unique personality. The development of a brand is a similar ontogeny that must be just as exciting and intimidating for its owner. It seems strange to consider that the global behemoths likes Rolex, Omega, or Cartier ever had a first watch. We take their universally recognised ranges for granted, as if the brand sprung fully formed from the mind of its founder. This was not the case. The first is important, sure, but the second, and the third, and the fourthIt takes time for consumers to understand a brand, to pigeon-hole it, to digest the message and see it realised in many rather than just one piece. With the Akrivia Tourbillon Regulator, the latest watch in this fast-growing family, it is just about possible to say that the DNA of this small brand has blossomed into a pleasingly homogeneous range.There are two main things we look for in range consistency: a unique case shape and an i

Show me the profile of your RG 25490, please.

Pam 653
I've been looking at Panerai watches for a bit but have never owned one. My wife surprised me with a 653 for Christmas. I hadn't seen one before now so trying to learn more about it. The watch is numbered on the back of the case as T042/500 but I don't see that kind of numbering in pictures online. Does anyone know what this is?Also what is the general thought on the PCYC watches?Thanks for the help.

This ok?... dial more patina then hands EXP2 16750
Watch has rsc dallas paperwork from 2012. Exp2 1675 with an N serial number, 1991 model with T<25 tritium dial. Is this normal for the patina on dial to be alittle darker then the hands? The seller and rsc paperwork say hands werent changed. Asking fellow trf gurus for any info on this. Thanks. Rsc paperwork shows $1100 total service. Seller asking low $4k? Good deal?

Watch box starts the collection
Hi all I've been jealous of your collection displays for a while. Today for my 2 year anniversary I received a box for mine. Clearly not as impressive as some but I like them. The small Rolex is my wife's, both that and the 30 year old Cyma were given to us by her HK grandfather. Room for one more. My grail is the blue red GMT but as it's made of gold I can't afford it...yet. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
