Roger Dubuis EasyDiver Watches For 2010
It took Roger Dubuis months to get a proper press release out on this watch with specs. I took images of the new Easy Diver watches back in January 2010, and am only now able to share them with you. I wanted some hard details to go along with the images. Prices will start at $12,900 for the subsidiary second model versions. Here are two different models. The sub seconds version and the chronograph. While the EasyDiver Chronograph is a sexy number, I think the real momentum is with the time only model.Roger Dubuis gave the watch a moronic name. I love the "EasyDiver" part (a la Easy Rider). I kid you not, they actually named it the "EasyDiver Hours, Minutes, and Small Seconds." And people wonder why I make fun of the watch industry.

Back to work

Power reserve question on the 5131R.
Hi folks hope everyone is having a great weekend..Just wanted to ask a question with regards to power reserve on my 5131R caliber 240 HU. I noticed when I wind it initially 10-15 times and wear it for a few hours then put it down the next day it stops after around 18-24hrs. Now reading the manual it sais a fully wound watch will have a reserve of around 48hrs.Am I right in thinking that to fully wind the watch it has to be wound and worn for many hours to get a reserve of 48hrs or so?? Is it normal to wind it and wear for say 4-5 hours and not get anywhere near 48hrs power reserve?? Hope that all makes sense..

Do the new ceramic Daytonas make noises?
Happened to get a chance to try on a WG Daytona with OF and loved the weight. However when I shook it close to my ear I could hear some movement noises like somethin moving in circles (probably the rotor) and I could hear the seconds ticking beautifully. Unlike the submariner I barely hear anything unless I really listen hard in a quiet environment Is the 4130 movement suppose to exhibit such behaviour?
