HYT H4 Alinghi Special Edition Watch
I've been waiting for this. The HYT H4 Alinghi Special Edition has introduced a significant dimension to HYT watches that was not there before: a second crown. But wait, I hear you cry, what on Earth can it be for? The HYT H4 Alinghi Special Edition is basically a clone of its predecessor, is it not? The movement architecture is practically identical to the H1! The calibre is skeletonized, but that's it: Where's the complication that requires a second crown?Well, in a funny kind of way, the crown is the complication. Hidden between 4 and 5 o'clock is a small generator, which is charged up by winding the crown. When depressed, the dial is bathed in a bright white light for a maximum of five seconds. The light source is two minuscule LEDs concealed by the 6 o'clock marker. This is an entirely mechanical process �C no battery. Nothing but good old gears and finger-twiddling.

A Breitling Family Reuniion!!

They are not watches you feel you have to baby. I now introduce to you family: Avenger Sea Wolf (Yellow & Gray), Super Ocean Heritage, Super Ocean Steel Fish, & Super Ocean.

Tudor Heritage Chrono....Would you buy?
Hello All, I have been talking to a seller about the Tudor Heritage Chrono watch... It's in rough shape Do you think it can be cleaned up? Some of the the scratches are deep too... I showed the Pics to a Watch Repair guy I know and he said it would polish up nicely....What do you all think?

Long Wait!!
Just dropped off my GMT at the AD for a service, I only bought the watch second hand a couple of weeks ago and finally got the time to take it in. The time frame I was given was 2-4 weeks to receive the quote, then 6-8 weeks from time of approval to it being ready, lucky I have my DJ to wear in the meantime! Excited for it to come back looking like new so I can start my own journey with the watch and know it's in perfect health. Do any of you guys follow the same approach when obtaining a second hand watch? What do you do in the meantime while you're waiting for it to return?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice shot
Hi guysI'm in love with the 16710 right now and keen on pulling the trigger on one. Already have a few other models with Swiss made dial so wondering if I should go for the tritium dial and hope that it'll age to a nice patina or just go for a newer piece with the Swiss made dial. I'm a newbie here and hope to get some advice on this. Any thoughts? Tks in advance.
