Watch Shopping In Greenwich, Connecticut: A Visit To Manfredi Jewels
There are just a small handful of truly meaningful watch stores in the United States. This group of forward-thinking, daring, and creative jewelers are, in some cases, responsible for breeding the generation of watch buyers that kept the entire industry afloat during some of its hardest times, and built it into the period of development and innovation that we are currently enjoying. Without these select watch retailers, there would be no industry to enjoy. Roberto Chiappelloni's Manfredi Jewels in Greenwich, CT, is at the forefront of this group, and today, we take an inside look at this amazing bastion of watchmaking. 1 OF 61 Chiappelloni is a believer in the great American dream. He came to the United States from Italy as a young man of 24. He believed he would spend six months at NYU and then return to Italy, but opportunity knocked and he answered.

New 5167A owner and new to the forum
I've been reading this forum for a while now and I'm finally excited to post now as a new 5167A owner. I just picked this up on order from my local AD. It came in fresh from Patek. As an introduction, I bought my first watch this year an IWC 3714 Portuguese. I thought that would be my first foray into watches and my last purchase for a while. But the bug has really hit me after reading these forums. I was in the hunt for a waterproof watch as I travel quite often. In April I stopped by an IWC boutique in LA and came across the Charles Darwin AT in bronze. I quickly called my AD and sourced one before my next trip. After 2 watches in 3 months I established a relationship with one of the reps at my AD. I asked her about a Lange I read about on Hodinkee that looked interesting.

How accurate is your SD43 ?
My SD43 has been simply amazing when it comes to keeping time. Since I got it in middle of December 2017, the watch hasn't lost or gained 1 sec.I don't use any apps...I just see the second-hand hitting 12 every time my iPhone clock changes minutes. That's how I set it over two months ago.That's just crazy accurate for a mechanical piece.I wear it everyday and it sits on my nightstand when I sleep. None of my other Rolex or Omega watches has been this accurate.Is it the new movement ?Or did I just get lucky ?I am curious to know what other SD43 are like when it comes to keeping time.
