Marcello C. Nettuno Bi-Color Chronograph Watch
You don't see combinations like this very often. Here, German Marcello C. has fitted their Nettuno Chronograph watch with a PVD black bezel and PVD black pushers and crown, against a stainless steel case. I think it is a very attractive combo. The look results in sort of a two-tone look that is quite popular these days. It makes the watch very noticeable as well - being more "striking" than models without the color combo. This is the first ever use of PVD in the Nettuno watch collection that I am aware of as well. You will notice of course that there are "mirror" image watches here. As one of the Nettuno Bi-Color Chronograph watches has a steel case with black pushers and bezel, the other version has a PVD black case with steel pushers and a steel bezel. Pretty cool right? Further, the PVD cased version comes with a totally PVD coated bracelet that ought to be really nice. This is one of the best diver's style bracelets on the market that I've experienced, and I'd love to experience it
The heart of the new Jacob Co Tortuga watches is a 24-jewel Japanese Miyota 9015 automatic movement
The case is coupled with a comfortable 22 mm rubber strap. The diver's watch is also accompanied by a more elegant brown leather strap. The price is 599 US dollars. If you wish, you can also get a mesh bracelet for extra 50 dollars. The heart of the new Jacob Co Tortuga watches is a 24-jewel Japanese Miyota 9015 automatic movement that gives an advantage of a 40-hour power reserve.

I am negotiating on one of these. Firstly, what do we think of it as a watch? It's a new piece, but has been sitting around in the dealer's window for some time. Secondly, any thoughts on pricing - at what price is it a no brainer? New price is USD270-ish.Thoughts appreciated.
Dear Mike (kilyung) & Ross (rosspanics) - Outgoing!
I hate you guys! The Royal Oak books are with FedEx on it's way to you! I know I could have e-mailed you guys but here is the reason for my post. While at the AP boutique I had one goal and that was to pick up 3 books and leave! Due to my weakness for horology and the lovely Manuela enticing me by commenting on my Yacht-Master I was tricked into trying on two pieces of which I almost purchased one on the spot! Looks like my short list has been modified and one of these will have to be added soon! Damn you guys! My 1655 dreams are slowly fading away!
