Favorite LE Speedy?
I was thinking about buying my first Omega. Due to it's cool history, I gravitated (no pun intended ) toward the moon watch. Then I leaned toward maybe a LE one for Apollo 11, since after all that was the mission that the first watch was worn on the moon. The 45th anniversary is not for me, but I do like the 40th and 35th anniversary models. So I thought I would pose the question....what is your favorite LE Speedy?I normally like to have a date function, but to stay true to the classic design, I figured I could move the chrono second hand to correlate with the date each day? Does anyone else do that?Thanks!

Rare Omega 'fifa' on the bay
Just a heads up. There is a pretty cool Omega on e.bay that I've never come across before.Similar size case to the Chronostop Seamaster at 44mm incl crown (might even be the same case) but PVD'd. Grey and yellow dial.Omega have done a few tie-in's with FIFA over the years (none of which are particularly popular), but this is quite a rare beast and the only one I've ever come across.?750 might be a bit steep as a buy-in-now though.Bidding started at ?100 and I've had a cheeky snipe at it, but reserve still isn't met and my paypal account isn't stretching much further!Have a look even if you have no intention of bidding, its a pretty cool watch.

Advice on watch purcahse 5712R, 5980R, 5712R, AP ROO 29540
Hi Guys,I just returned from Zurich and tried a bunch of amazing watches. Here is my short list of favourites:5980/1R75,000 CHF (?51,500)5980R52,700 CHF (?36,000)5712R38,400 CHF (?26,000)- Rose Gold ROO Schumacher72,000 CHF (?49,000)Although I went to a few AD the discounts being offer were horrible so I couldnt do a deal. My favourite watch hands down is the 5980R, but my wife felt that the all gold braclet was too much of a statement and I rhink ahe is right. It also sat outside my budget ao I needes to get one 30% off which would prove very difficult given how new it was. She then made what I think is a good suggestion.By looking at the big price difference between the Chrono on leather strap (5980R) and the moon phase power reserve (5712R), then factoring in a good discount, maybe I should consider two watches. For example the 5712R and the ROO Rose Gold 25940 (older model with round push buttons). This way I have a nice watch to wear with a suit and another casual watch.So may I p

the Patek factory automation
I just watched this video about the Pakek factory,I was surprised to see so many CNC machine's my understanding was everything was hand-made well a least very little automation happened but this is clearly not the casehttps://.youtube/watch?v=cQ52jEMv9qw

Should I get rid of my PAM and upgrade to a Nautilus
Hi All,I have had my PAM 328 for a little over 5 years and enjoyed it during the time and bought 8-10 different OEM and aftermarket straps to use interchangeably. Recently, I have been adding higher end pieces to my collection (Patek Annual Calendar and VC Patrimony) and haven't really worn the PAM as much anymore. Also, compared with the rest of the watches in my collection it just wears really bulky and heavy. Recently, I found that the automatic winding mechanism was not working so took it in for repair, complete overhaul and polish. $1,000 but it came back look brand new and running great. Now my dilemma is, should I keep it and try to learn to enjoy it like I did once before, or should I just go ahead and sell it now that it is back in mint condition and try to trade up for something better. Recently I tried on the Nautilus 5712 and was amazed at how much more comfortable that felt on my wrist than the PAM. The 5712 is a lot more coin but think it would fit better with my curr
