New Linde Werdelin Sea Instrument: Luxury Computer Diving Instrument
As if the existing range of diving computers was not enough, Linde Werdelin felt it necessary to expand their "Instrument" lineup with the Sea Instrument to compliment the Land Instrument. Sounds reasonable enough. If you recall, the Linde Werdelin Land Instrument (discussed here) is a high-end computer that sits on your wrist either in a little watch harness or on top of a Linde Werdelin Biformeter watch (they don't come together). While the Land Instrument covered such areas such as weather, altitude, and heart rate (among other functions), the Sea Instrument is meant to be a diver's companion thus showing different important pieces of information related to being underwater.Included among the Sea Instrument's features are depth gauges, dive times, decompression times, temperature, and other important data. Unlike the Land Instrument, this new model has a color display, and shares the nice sapphire crystal. The case itself comes in anodized aluminum, as well as a limited edition 18k

Manually winding a Speedmaster
I just bought a nice near mint 3570.50 speedmaster after a long hunt. I love the look and history of the watch and want a nice vintage example someday but this model is only 4 years old and is a faithful interpretation of the original so it will scratch that itch until I'm ready to dive into the deep end and spend the money for a nice vintage example. The only thing that bugs me about the watch is that winding it seems difficult because there is not much crown to grab onto what with the slight recess in the case. Has this bothered anyone else?

new omega railmaster
Just got what i think is a great deal from an AD here in dallas! It's the 2802.52.37 railmaster 42.2mm with the brown strap. The msrp is around $2900.00...I was able to pick it up for $1695.00. I've been eyeing one of these for a while and just stumbled on a great deal!

574 case thickness
I've read that the new 574 is thinner than the 512, but can't seem to find case thicknesses listed online. I also contacted the panerai e-boutique, but haven't heard back. Does anyone know?
