My Baselworld Top 5 Watches Article On AskMen.com
This was a tough article to write. I was asked to come up with five top watches from Baselworld 2010. You don't realize that walking around there for over a week you see thousands of watches. Well, here on AskMenwatches-dealer is my list of five. Please realize that I did not intend this to be a competition, each of these watches is the top five, in no particular order. You can see that I choose watches that have good, restrained design, and that should be commercially a success. Baselworld 2010 was not about crazy expensive watches, but good solid designs that people will actually want to buy. So check it out and let me know what you think.Read my Top 5 New Watches At Baselworld 2010 article here on AskMenwatches-dealer.
BNIB Omega PO Ti 45.5 wrong bracelet
image.jpgSo if you notice, the end link does not sit flush with the case. I thought this wasn't normal so I looked up the bracelet number on my watch and it read '1591/831' which is the bracelet for the Planet Ocean Titanium Chronograph. My new watch is just the standard Titanium XL. I called my jeweler and he could not believe it and thought I must be confused. I called an Omega boutique and they said they have never heard of a watch being matched up with the wrong bracelet.But sure enough it was a factory error. I took the watch back to the dealer today and he pulled out 2 other factory sealed similar models and both read '1590/867' on the bracelet which matches up to the PO Ti XL.Has anyone ever seen a factory error like this before?
Happy omega weekend
in a good mood today. HAGD.
Back into PP
Just acquired this 5170g via trade. Have not owned a PP since I unloaded my 5164 Travel Time
Ignorance is Bliss
My situation is history so I am needing input to prevent this from happening in the future. I buy a Rolex and wear it happily for approx. 10 years. Send it to N.Y. for service. Hands are tarnished, so is Dial. Bracelet is stretched. I ask them to get it lookin good again, which they did. Wear it happily for approx. 7 more years. Send it to N.Y. for service again. Needs a few items as before. Watch looks great. I am Happy. The watch is now 50 years old. I realize I have paid Rolex not once but Twice to remove Vintage parts and replace with new. I now have a Vintage Nothing. This was all my doing. How long has Rolex been loading my Gun so I can Shoot myself in the foot? I ain't Easy being Me !
