Watch What-If: Omega Speedmaster
"Watch What-If" is a special column on aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer that asks the playful question "what if an iconic watch you know and love was offered in a different style?" The idea embraces a good timepiece's core design and has fun by offering new colors and material concepts to stimulate your senses. These ideas may be provocative, artistic, or just plain silly. This is about fun, Photoshop, and the celebration of wrist watch design and experimentation. The original design we work off will always be at the bottom of the article. The designs are brought to life by Beau Hudspeth who does the artwork and conception after he and I choose the models and styles to focus on. These special design experiments are extremely time consuming and labor intensive but we hope you enjoy the results. Ideas and comments are more than welcome. Enough response may even lead to a round two of design of the same watch - so please comment below. You are also encouraged to suggest watches that make it into

Incoming.... 3 for 3!!!
Well I have been lucky enough to get three new Rolex watches in the last three months.I told my wife before going to our AD that this would be it until the second half of the year... Time to put some money away for retirement and vacation etc...But when I arrived they told us they have a Hulk. It was already spoken for but they knew I wanted to see one in person because I was a little on the fence with this time piece.My wife and a few here on TRF are not crazy about this watch... Well it took me maybe oh a couple of seconds to realize that this watch needs to be in my collection. It is beautiful!!! The dial is stunning and this is what sold me. Back to the topic at hand as I got side tracked... Imagine that... Like a kid in a candy store.I am stoked on getting my new watch. A lot of hard work with my career and it is finally paying off.Here are a few pics from my visit and the watch that I got to bring home...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
