SEWILLS "FERREIRA" PRS-39
Resurrecting past glories is always a challenge with a tendency to go rather wrong. The modern VW Beetle resembles Ferry Porsche's design like a bottle of Tesco Value Red resembles Chateau Cheval Blanc 2000. Citro?n's chief executive should be publicly pickled in LHM fluid for permitting the DS5 – that Picasso-in-a-frock – to use Bertoni's sacred DS name.Timefactors' Eddie Platts has been brave indeed in resurrecting the venerable name of Sewills. Joseph Sewell started making nautical navigation instruments in nineteenth century Liverpool, only ceasing manufacture in 2000. Sewill's original instruments are things of beauty and function, found on merchantmen and even Cunard liners. His marine chronometers have the easy elegance that nineteenth century craftsmen gave to everything from cast iron railway station pillars to postboxes. Even the engraving on his sextants would make modern typographers weep.So, does the the Timefactors Ferreira (PRS-39) manage it?The 316L stainles

Review Limes Endurance 1000 GMT3
When one discusses the desirable qualities in a watch, there are many potential factors to take into consideration. Build quality, looks, price, complications, etc�� And these factors can get very specific depending on one's needs, such as helium-escape valves for divers.?It's not often that a watch comes along that covers a particularly large amount of those potential needs, and the Limes Endurance 1000 GMT 3 is one such watch. At 1,195 Euros, or about $1,575, the German made Endurance features an ETA 2893-2 TOP grade GMT movement, a 1000m water resistance, sapphire crystal, an incredibly sturdy build and a unique three time zone design. While the price is certainly more than the bulk of watches we discuss, the Limes Endurance offers substantial value by being a "multi-tool" as well as packing a top grade ETA movement.Limes is a German brand that is run and manufactured by the Ickler family out of Pforzheim Germany. If that name sounds familiar, it's because we've recently also reviewe

My first ROO need help.
I am looking to purchase my first AP ROO and I could use some help. I would like the case in the 41-43mm range and prefer a rubber or alligator etc. bracelet.

Also resale value is a big consideration. Thank you for the help.

I've Settled on the 39mm Railmaster . . .
My 1987 Rolex 16013 was my 24/7 watch from 1987 until December 2009 when I placed it in semi-retirement, i.e., special occasions only. Since that time, my Seamaster 300M GMT and 39mm Railmaster have been in every-other-day rotation. Well, although I'll miss the date on the GMT a bit, about a week ago I decided on the Railmaster for everyday wear. My decision was based on the size, weight and simple, elegant style of the Railmaster. Of course, since my favorite niece (15 years old) thinks the GMT is cool, I'll be sure I'm wearing cool when I see her. I've notice, too, that the Railmaster is even more accurate when it's worn everyday as opposed to every other day. Now, this is really cool . . . so I've been told . . .
