Grey Side of the Moon... Better than expected!

Omega... to Co-Axial or not to Co-Axial?
Hey all,Just wanted a few expert opinions on the Omega Co-Axial. I have had many differeing opinions on why this movement is better and worse and have heard of the problems with the initial run... but what do you think? I know this movement is already replacing the old reliable in a few Omega lines and in turn increasing their prices dramatically! So ho many out there own one and what is your review? Is it really worth the $$$???

Patek Phillipe service estimate
I just read a post on another forum from a watchmaker who recently sent a 119 year old Patek Phillipe 14k pocket watch back to Geneva for an estimate to repair it. As you probably know, PP will repair any watch they've ever sold, for a price.The estimate came back at $13,000.00 with an ETA of approximately 40 MONTHS!!! Kinda makes a Rolex $500 - $600 service seem like a bargain, huh?

Incoming "sort of"
So I have been looking online at the PAM00687 that will be released soon and deciding how I feel about it. I have been wanting to pick up a Radiomir to go with my 422 and I love the dial on the 687. I am not sure how limited this watch is going to be or what the demand will be but I never have any luck landing hard to get pieces despite spending decent money with my AD. Today I put in a call and to my surprise I was the first to inquire about the watch and with a 20% deposit was able to secure the watch that they say I should get sometime in March! The other thing that is pretty cool is they will order it in with a long strap, this is great news since the standard size strap on my 422 was to short to use. Anyone else going to be getting one of these? I was a little on the fence but now that I know I am getting one I am totally happy and $9800 price tag seems reasonable.

Is it safe to play blocks with your 2 year old with your 40 year of DJ 36?
Don't give much thought to heavy construction or diving down 70 feet or running bulls in Spain, but was this too risky?
