Armand Nicolet S05 Day Date Automatic Watch Available On James List
A elusive watch brand that I've been interested in for a while is Armand Nicolet. While they have the appearance for a mainstream watch, I have yet to happen upon these pieces, though that is likely to change soon. The brands have a few collections of watches and here is a piece from the S05 collection of sport pieces. What I find interesting about these watches is the use of an aggressive, sort of modern case, but with really traditional dials. Especially the dial style with the vintage looking yellowish orange Arabic hour numerals that looks at home on railroad pocket watches. You can see that there are some other styles available as well. While S05 watches come in chronograph forms, and even ones with Valjoux 7751 movements, I like this cleaner looking day-date model that has a Swiss? ETA 2834-2 automatic movement.The date is symmetrically placed in the lower mid section of the dial, and the fully spelled out day is placed in placed between 9 - 11 o'clock so as not?to impede legibil

Diamond & Platinum Rolex President Timepiece On JamesList.com
There are a number of places you can go to buy watches online. I prefer those with a good combination of selection and visual appeal. JamesListwatches-dealer is a clever premise, and a good idea. It is a place for people looking for high luxury goods, that connects them with dealers or individuals all over the world looking to sell. While they have a good selection of watches, they also features fun things like cars, boats, real estate, and aircraft.When you use JamesList, you are looking at things offered by any number of people, and like I said, from all over the world. I find myself most fascinated by the stories behind these objects for sale. How did they come to be where they are, who is selling them, where will they end up? In fact, they could end up yours.Today I am going to look at something of an icon for Rolex. This is a version of the Rolex Day-Date (because it displays the day and date), also known as the Rolex President. The reason this watch is known as the President, is

Pebble Goes Circular with the Pebble Time Round
Be warned, we are talking about smart watches, so if the topic is not your cup of tea best to move on. We are going back to the OG of smart watches, Pebble, which has finally come around to being round. The aptly named Pebble Time Round takes the brand's flagship smartwatch, the Pebble Time, and puts it in a round case, catching up to other popular round smart watches like the Moto 360 (which just released new models) and the LG Watch Urbane among others. Does the round case make the Pebble any more appealing? Let's take a look and see what it has to offer.The Pebble Round Time takes cues from the Pebble Time housing the same smart watch features into a 38.5mm round, steel case. At first glance it is clear that the 38.5mm does not count for the display as a large chunk of the dial real estate is chewed up by a large bezel leaving a smaller area for the screen to show off the Pebble's features. The bezel comes with some color choices, depending on whether you buy the women's or men's ve

2254.50.00 at ADs?
Hi Guys,I'm in the market for a new watch (either an Omega or Rolex) and was wondering if the 2254.50.00 is still available at ADs. I know it has been discontinued, but thought there might still be 'new' stock available (perhaps at a discount?). As an aside, I much prefer the black dial and speedy bracelet to the Bond style.Thanks!

Professional Rolex for small wrist
I've been contemplating getting my first Rolex, but my wrist size makes getting a Professional model difficult (I'm not interested in dress models at the moment). Dial size is not so important--it's lug to lug width that makes my search an arduous one. For example, the Sub C and the new 39mm Explorer I are both just a bit too long (lug-wise) for me, as one lug invariably hangs just a bit beyond the edge of my wrist. So far I've found the SD 4000 (116600) and the 36mm Explorer I as viable options. Are there any other sports Rolex that would have a shorter lug height than what I have already tried?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
