Contessa by Eterna - Women's Watch 2009
Contessa by Eterna - Women's Swiss Watch modelIt's very hard to please a woman. Especially when we come armed with knowledge, taste, and high expectations. It must be even more difficult for such a traditional manufacture to create a dynamic timepiece for modern women that includes technological performance and aesthetic appeal.But I must admit that Eterna has done just that with its latest Contessa models.Since 1865, the watchmakers of Eterna have toiled to maintain their image of perfection and selectivity. The exclusivity of this brand makes it that much more desirable. Known for the precision of their slim movements, Eterna is brand that stays true to itself and its traditions, even in today's fluctuating markets.Eterna - Nothing But Watchmaking - was able to create a dynamic, versatile timepiece that is distinctively feminine yet a still a fine timepiece. Their use of different textures within the dial creates an immediate, emotional response that cyclically moves your eyes across

Audemars Piguet Water Resistance
Hi all. I popped by the Audemars Piguet boutique today to get a new strap for my beloved AP. I decided to get a complimentary water-resistance test since it doesn't take more than 5 minutes. To my shock and disappointment, my AP ROO ref 26400SO, which was barely 3 month old from an Official AD, did not pass the test. They told me that I should send it in for a service, and anything done to the watch would be FOC as it is under warranty.However, after blowing $46,800 Singapore Dollars on a watch, should I not be expecting quality control better than this? I am frankly a bit upset that this is an issue, and I now have to send it back to AP for 6-8 weeks. Has anyone ever experienced this? What do you guys think about this lack of QC? Is it something that I have a right to be upset about? We are talking about a 3-4 month old watch purchased in July. I need some advice!!

Incoming!!! Soon......
After seeing so many incoming threads lately, i figure it's time to add mine! Can't wait until tomorrow

Patek Philippe Aquanaut Ref: 5065
Hi everyone,I have a chance to purchase a mint, complete set of aquanaut 5065 (minus the box I think - but the guy is looking for it). But it has all the papers, the rubber strap, and the steel bracelet.I'm wondering if anyone here can share an experience regarding it, how the watch holds up, what you like and don't like, and the measurement of the dial? I tried google (and still trying, but I can't seem to find one just yet).The price would be around 12k USD.Thanks!

So many Daytonas. AD in Singapore
Walked pass a famous AD in Singapore Chinatown district, they only have two big displays and one is full with Daytonas, except the SS C of course. I didn't take too many photos since I'm afraid they will yell at me lol, some of the older staff here can be a bit on the rude side. But the other display is full of Daytonas TT and Subs TT as well. Again sorry for the bad pic, tried to take photo secretly. Zoom in ones
