From Rolex to Breitling
After a bumpy ride flipping watchesRolex Datejust 16030Rolex Datejust 6605Omega Speedmaster Reduced Cart seriesRolex Datejust 116200Rolex Datejust 16014Rolex Explorer II 16570Rolex Datejust 16200First I bought a Seiko Arctura Chrono, I am going to South America this summer for about six weeks, didn't want to take any risks with a watch, It is surprisingly accurate, within 1 second a month.It was time for me to look for a compromise between rugged, GMT, Chrono and a little stylish.I decided to buy a Breitling Chronomat Longitude Chronometer A23048 in the completely brushed finish.The lume is like Radio-active, it glows like a torch.The bracelet is really comfortable though rather nasty to size when never handled before.The saphire is crazy, when seen from upfront it seems there's no saphire at all, just a dial.Everything on this watch feels firm and sturdy though it's a little high on the wrist.Now I am going to enjoy it, here's a little picture of it, next few days i'll make some sweet

Bought a PO, sold the PO and bought another PO...
First I was too excited and bought a 42mm PO8500 in a haste. The PO8500 is a beautiful watch, both on pics and in the flesh.However as I place the PO8500 on my wrist, I knew I would not want to wear her. IMO it sat slightly high for me as it is a thick watch. The greyish ceramic insert seems to not go too well with the deep rich black dial.Finally I sold her to buy the older version, the 42mm PO2500.Disclaimer: To the PO8500 owners out there, the new PO8500 is a solid watch both in terms of the caliber and the looks department and it sure looks handsome in the numerous wrist shots I see. I bought the PO2500 brand new in a brick and mortar shop. As this is an old model, I got a fantastic deal!The PO2500 is more tool like and everything on her seems subtle or probably subdued. The black dial has a tinge of grey charcoal. I esp like the white wordings and numerals on this dial. The black Al bezel insert has nothing to shout about too, just a plain black bezel, no frills.Sitting sl

Cool Movements shots of my 5711/1R
Some pics of the redoubtable cal 324, capturing some of the finer touches, love this watch both front and back.

The Dark Fiddy !
More than 5 years after announcing the 1950 composite Luminor Pam375 and after a lot of gossip on how why and if it was really launched They are starting to trickle down the pipeline Haven't seen it in person yet but it is available for me if I want it ... Who wouldn't want a dark Fiddy ?? For the price of 14k that would probably be me :-) I'll pay the boutique a visit and get some wrist shots and see it in person then get back to you guys maybe sell my 587 and get the 375 ?? Hmm

Here we go.. 116610LVc has broke the US $ 11,000 point on resale
Mines 7+ years old and I thought 8000 was ridiculous. It's a great looking watch though and I glad I have it and will never sell it. It's just unbelievable how it's shot up. It's tied for top spot with 116619 that I should wear more. It can't see paying 11k for it and I just can't wrap my head around it. No way it sells for that
