Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso By Zep Watch
I'll be really frank that I have no idea who or what Zep is. I mean I know a bit more now after researching and writing this article, but seeing his little smoke plume-haired character for the first time was a novel experience. I guess it is a Swiss/European thing. WhatTin Tin makes it international but Titeuf and Asterix are Euro only? Having said that, I do love cartoons and comics of all varieties. Something about hand-drawn things that really appeal to me.Zep is the pseudonym of an artist who draws and writer a comic strip series known as Titeuf and is Swiss. I swear, I was not even sure the Swiss were capable of comics and humor until I saw this. Though it is all in French so I don't know what type of humor it is. Can anyone out there comment?

Speedmaster new bracelet question
Hi, I am looking to buy a Speedmaster Moonwatch 3570.Does anyone know if this will get the upgraded bracelet at any point in the near future, with the screws in stead of pins?Reason I ask is all the special editions seem to have it like the Apollo XVII 40th anniversary Limited Edition ref 311.30.42.30.99.002.Think its the .002 that signifies the strap type but might be wrong.Thanks in advance.

I don't usually ask
I don't usually ask for opinions before buying a watch but this time I'm doubting myself and would appreciate some input .I have long desired a platinum Daytona and almost went for it twice but both times walked away. As with these things the desire is back and I have the opportunity to go for the Daytona again.However in order to afford it I would need to loose the following116613 lbSD4000116710 BLNRSpeedy Tuesday16710 cokeAll of these plus a substantial sum of cash , question is am I mad to even consider it?
