Return of a Classic Explorers’ Watch: Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic 1958
As we hinted on Thursday on WatchTime’s social media, Jaeger-LeCoultre has announced the return of a collectors’ classic from the brand’s archives: a limited-edition chronometer watch called the Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic 1958.The original Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic was created in 1958, designated as the “International Geophysical Year” in which 67 nations from the East and West cooperated, during the height of the Cold War, to undertake a series of scientific explorations of the planet’s unexplored regions. The watch was designed to be a companion on these expeditions, many of which took researchers to harsh terrains and climates, so it utilized the era’s most advanced watchmaking technology. Its manual-wound movement, Caliber 478BWSbr, was derived from military watches and included a stop-seconds function for precise timekeeping; a Glucydur balance with shock absorption for stability through extreme temperature changes; and a swan’s nec

Yacht-master II for AP Royal Oak Diver?
So I know I've been all over the radar lately in regards to hunting down the next piece.I've been strongly considering Rolex Precious Metal, which most likely means flipping my YMII and possibly my LVC too (if i replace them with a PM Sub).Anyway, here's the thought process. Before I got my YMII I strongly considered and debate the DSSD as well as the AP Diver.I've definitely had my fears about taking the leap into AP. It's kind of like I've been vacationing in the same place for 20 years, and now I'm considering trying some place new. But the original place just feels like home. OK, blah blah, you get it.So here's where I'm at. I've been infatuated with the AP Diver for longer than the DSSD and the YMII. I love the look, the strap versatility, the feel and of course contextual history of the Audemars Piguet. If i was to seriously consider leaving my SS days behind me for PM, part of me feels like I need to knock the AP Diver off my horological bucket list.Does picking up the AP

15202 clasp push buttons
Fellow Jumbo owners. Help needed. I am experiencing some problems with the clasp push buttons on my Jumbo. The screws that hold the push buttons are unscrewing, this has happened three times now. It seems as if the screws are not the proper ones given they tend to get loose even after my AD has applied liquid glue to them several times. I remember reading about this same issue here on TRF but couldn't find the post. Has anyone else experienced this issue? How was it fixed by APSC?Thanks!

Incoming and my Patek story
As a child, I came across this beautiful watch at the local swap meet - a fake Patek Philippe. My mom saw how enthralled I was and asked if I wanted it for my birthday. I think it was around $150 after some wheelin, which was a lot of money back then for a working class family. I didn’t know about watches then but knew the real deal would be even sweeter, a goal to reach for. So I distinctly recall saying, all serious and with water in my eyes, “no thanks mom, I’m gonna be so stinkin rich and buy the real thing”. She smiled and said I can do it. I was maybe 12 at the time.... fast forward, I’m not quite there yet but the aspiration of owning a Patek never left my mind. I recently turned 27 and decided to fulfill a childhood dream. Yeah, today I’m grinning like a mad man.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
