Ophion 960 Review
In the world of affordable watches, there's a lot of variation in terms of design and concept, giving us lots of watches to be interested in, talk about and occasionally pursue for purchase. But within those watches, there is little variation in the mechanical movements driving them. Under $1,000 is dominated by Seiko and Miyota these days with the occasional Swiss or Chinese offering. Over $1,000 and you see the Swiss regulars, ETA and Sellita, with the occasional Soprod, and the rare in-house movement. Nothing wrong with any of them, but seeing the same movements over and over can get a bit stale, if only from my perspective as a reviewer.So, when I heard that a new brand called Ophion was using a TechnoTime movement I had never seen before, I was immediately very excited.

Bring a Loupe: Two Vintage Omega Speedmasters, A Larger Patek Calatrava, A Great Futurematic From Jaeger-LeCoultre, And More

Finally, Bidder Beware returns with two watches that you should absolutely not buy on eBay today (or ever). This is your Bring A Loupe for January 15, 2016.

As it often happens with vintage watches, it is also the most coveted and valuable of the Speedmasters; think for instance of the first GMT from Rolex or the first waterproof chronograph from Patek – both enjoy greater success with collectors than later models.

Is there a trick to getting the case back gasket on a Sea Dweller to seat...?
Long story short I have my 11660 Sea Dweller open on my desk. I fixed what I needed to fix, but now I am stuck with trying to put the case back back on. It seems like the gasket likes to just pop itself up every time I press it into its little seat. Is there a trick to getting this thing to stay, or does it just seal itself when you tighten the case back?
