IN THE SHOP: A Killer 321 Speedy, Universal Compax In Steel, And An Investment-Grade Datejust (In Wh
It wouldn't be Tuesday without some new additions to the HODINKEE Shop! As always, we've gone ahead and sourced some absolutely killer watches for you – and this includes a handful of watches that are coming from you, private owners! Today we are proud to offer another beautifully aged, 321-powered Omega Speedmaster, a wonderful early Universal Genève Compax with telemetry dial, a stainless-steel triple calendar from Jaeger-LeCoultre, and our personal favorite, a 1960s Rolex Datejust with gilt, glossy dial and a case of white gold! Didn't know they existed? Well now you do, and you can find it in the HODINKEE Shop. 1940s Jaeger-LeCoultre Triple Calendar In Stainless Steel 1 OF 4 When one thinks of the 1940s, one thinks of two things – the triple calendar complication, and the tear-drop lug shape. Seldom do we find a watch that combines both traits so elegantly, with a true in-house haute horlogerie caliber, in a stainless-steel case!

Very impressed with the Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial and Orbis Constellation
I have been playing with the idea of getting his and her watches as a wedding present to my fianc��e and me. On a side note, I'm a sucker for blue and had never seen the blue Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial on the metal.So this last weekend I paid a visit to the local Omega boutique and took a look at the watch, as well as at a Constellation Orbis, which is a watch I have showed her in the past and she thought was beautiful.I'm super impressed with the AT. The dark metallic blue Omega used, alongside the super cool anti-magnetic movement >15.000 gauss (with a saphire back!), and the fact they they pulled it off with a case that is 13mm thick made the watch very tempting. Up until now, I had thought most new watches from Omega had amazing calibers but were too thick, and they finally managed to get around that on this AT. The Constellation is still very thick for the size (27mm), but the dial is just gorgeous. Finally, as a personal observation, I'm a sports watch guy, as much as I may hav

speedmaster man on the moon

Speedmaster Pro
Everyone out there, im loving this forum! been said before in many newbie threads but this is the ultimate place for info so i thought id ask a question regarding an upcoming and first big dollar watch purchase for me.I live in Australia and have priced the Omega Speedmaster Pro with the sapphire case front and back (mod 3573.50.00)- here i can get it duty free for $3800 Ausd or about $3200 USD.Im travelling to the USA in 17 days and am not sure whether it will be worth waiting and buying when im there. If there will be no saving i would prefer and feel safer buying here before i leave.Any advice/recommendations/past experience with dealers in the US. Btw- i will be visiting LA, Vegas, Washington DC, NYC and San Fran.Thank youChris

New Ideas
Since everyone seems pretty sick of all the same banter, let's try something new. What new model can rolex make that would make everyone excited? Let's exclude any remakes (coke gmt) as well since that's an easy copout. I am a fan of the idea of mixing the GMT LN and the EXPII. Put the big orange hand on a black matte dial with a the ceramic bezel and all brushed bracelet.
