New Ressence Type 3 Watch With Oil Temperature Gauge
While the meaning of unique is so watered down that it challenges "in-house" for sheer over-use, I have trouble thinking of a more appropriate way to describe Ressence watches. I would be surprised if anyone reading this wasn't aware, at least visually, of their Ressence Type?1 and Type?3 models which, in living up to the brand's tag line, have evolved "beyond hands." Announced just ahead of Baselworld 2015, Ressence has reworked their Type?3 model to include a temperature gauge to monitor the oil that fills the upper case element.Much like the original Ressence Type?3, the new Type?3 is 44mm x 15mm in size with a three-part case that is essentially two sapphire domes mounted to a titanium spine. The spine also forms the lugs and can be had in matte or polished finish, each with a DLC coating. Thanks to an extensive use of titanium, the total weight of the new Ressence Type?3 is just 75g, mounted on a leather strap with a matching titanium buckle.The magic of the Ressence Type?3 design
I quick incoming thread...
Well, this one has been a couple of months coming, and has taken a fair bit of planning. Anyway, it started when I realised I was going down my usual route with regard to the Daytona�� I love them when I get them, I cool towards them after a few months of ownership and then I find I don't reach for them any more. It's happened with three of the four that I've owned, the only exception being the white gold Zenith that I stupidly sold a couple of years ago (and that's another story, albeit not a particularly interesting one for anybody but me).So, I decided that I'd have to move the latest one on, and then started to think about what white-dialled chrono I could replace it with. I didn't want anything too dressy, as my collection has veered markedly in that direction over the last year or so. I toyed with various options such as Girard-Perregaux, but couldn't really make up my mind about them; then I started looking at the Royal Oaks in their various incarnations. The current 26320ST is a
Seamaster Pro 300 Bracelet
Just picked up a midsize 2252.50 Seamaster. I like the (speedmaster style) bracelet, but the clasp is very big. I'm thinking of trying to change to an older seamaster bracelet, will any omega 18mm end pieces work?Does anyone have a photo of a Seamaster pro with a black leather strap? This may be another option for me (thinking horween)...
Referral for Vintage Omega Watch Service
Hello,I own two vintage Omega Seamasters (500 series) that need routine oiling and minor adjustments. I prefer to avoid Omega ADs and Omega Service Centers due to concerns about getting overcharged. Any recommendations?Thanks, DAVIDOmegas 01 01 2013.JPG
9 black + 3 white Ceramic Daytona for Shreve (Palo Alto), but only 3 SkyD
Stopped by Shreve in Stanford this weekend, was told:- In 2017, they received twelve 116500 (9 black and 3 white)- The 326934 is an allocation piece, they've received only three (1 of each) and are not taking names. According to them, it is more exclusive than even the 116500.So there you go, the ratio sounds right and aligns with everything else I heard, though I feel the Sky-D is becoming more available and won't be the next Daytona. Still waiting for my blue dial though...
