Giveaway: Pulsar By Seiko Men's Automatic Watch
This month I have for you a Pulsar by Seiko Men's Automatic watch. The specific model available for one lucky winner is the Ref. PS2004, which is the two-tone model (silver, gold tone) on the steel bracelet. This is the most expensive one of the mix, but I wanted you to see what the entire collection looks like. These watches are brand new for 2010, and features exclusive 21 jewel automatic movements. There is an "open heart" dial which has a window to the moving balance wheel in the movement. Not small at all, these watches are 44.9mm wide in a steel case that is water resistant to 330 feet. Bracelet is 20mm wide and in steel with a fold-over safety clasp, while the watch crystal is Seiko Hardlex. Dial has applied luminant on the hands for darkness viewing. The watch features a caseback window for an addition view into the movement.These are great looking classy timepieces with a beautiful mechanical spirit and high, Seiko quality. Japanese in spirit, the Men's Automatic watch collect

Hacking feature on a Patek
After reading through the forums it appears that several Patek models can't be hacked. (The second hand doesn't stop completely when the crown is fully pulled out.) So here is my question:What Patek models (if any) have the ability to hack?Thanks in advance.
Incoming Day-Date
This is a watch I have looked at for a while.Lots of positives but for me I wondered if it was too ostentatious, does it suit me, am I too young for it.....in the end I was not sure but I pulled the trigger anyway and man am I glad that I did.It arrived yesterday, it is beautifully finished, fits like a dream and all my concerns were imaginary.In short I love it....yes it's bold but so whatAnyone thinking about one should go for it (especially if DavidSW hooks you up)PS it has already been to the gym with me!
Would you fix this?
I accidentally dropped my datejust on a tile floor and now there is a small dent on the lug. It's devastating to me and luckily the crystal didn't crack and the watch is still working fine. I know there's a watchmaker in melbourne that can laser weld it with good reputation. Would you fix it or just leave it? I can live with scratches but a dent on a 3 months old watch is bothering me a lot. You can see the dent as the part that reflects light on the lug. When you get it laser welded, I suppose you would need to remove the movement from the case in which would void the 5 years warranty?
