BEST FROM: watches-dealer & Friends April 12th
Round-Up By Kenny YeoWelcome to the very first edition of watches-dealer's twice a month round up special. Two times a month, I round up the best watch articles and reviews from watches-dealer and from around the internet for your reading pleasure. Here are my picks for the first half of April.1.? Bell & Ross Aviation Instrument Watches 2013For the past couple of years, Bell & Ross has released a couple of aviation-themed watches based on their signature BR01 case, and this year is no different. 2013 will see three new aviation-themed watches. The three new watches are named Airspeed, Heading Indicator and Climb, and their names are a good indication of which cockpit dial provided the inspiration for the design. Powering these watches are ETA movements.Although these watches are not the first word in legibility - especially the Heading Indicator - they stay true to Bell & Ross' older aviation-themed watches such as last year's Altimeter and the older Radar. All in all, thes

Perrelet Turbine Hentai Erotic Limited Edition Watch
Perrelet has just announced a few limited edition erotic watches based on the original Turbine. These are done in a Japanese anime style, which is often referred to as "hentai" when it deals with pornographic or erotic art. This cartoon erotic art is quite popular and has origins going back to the 19th century or earlier. Using the spinning turbine concept on the dial, the images are placed on the dial and only really visible when the turbine (activated by wrist movement) is spinning quickly.The watches themselves are 44mm wide in DLC black coated steel or titanium. They have Perrelet automatic?? P-181 movements are are matched to a rubber strap. There are a total of 8 limited edition Turbine Erotic watches - and each will be limited to just 88 pieces. This means that each of the four dial styles is available with the DLC steel or titanium case. Despite the erotic nature of these watches, these are pretty tame by erotic (and hentai) standards. Though it is nice to see Perrelet being pl

Buying A 44mm Offshore
Hello TRF-ers! I'm really considering to buy a new 44mm Offshore soon. My choice is either the 26400SO or 26400IO. I know there's been a couple of thread comparing these two watches, but I'm sincerely confused. My local AD has a new 26400SO which I was really surprised of, so I'm buying new. From what I see most of you prefer the 44mm Ti, but I haven't seen it in real life. And I'm afraid that the dark grey combo makes my 42mm Vampire a bit redundant because of the black/dark grey and red color scheme. On the other hand, I just saw the 26400SO and I think it looks awesome . Let me know what which one you think I should choose . And how much should I pay for the 26400SO if I want to buy it? And since I've seen the Elephant a few times, how does the grey color of 26400IO looks like compared to the Elephant? I uploaded the pic of 26400SO on my wrist and my two-watch collection

ROO RC clasp options?
I just got a ROO RC Rose and I cant stand the clasp. Pretty uncomfortable, my IWC yacht club's rubber band and deployant is pretty amazing. I am currently using it at the first pin hole, the clasp sits on the side of my wrist. I already tried the flipping backwards technique, even though it helps a little, its still not as comfortable as I would like. The AD said its about 220 for a smaller rubber strap, has anyone tried this? Any alternatives? I like the OEM strap...

Omega de Ville, lot of diamonds
I posted on the rolexforum about a vintage submariner I have. Now I know much more about Rolex and started to like my watch, and don't want to sell it anymore. Luckily I also have a Omega ladies which I can sell. Anybody know the +/- value of below watch? I'm looking for weeks on the internet for similar Omega watch, but cannot find.
