Reizen Radio-controlled Analog Talking luxurious Watch
The beauty of this beauty, is that the face is large enough that you may in fact even not need to set out the time for you watch. But the watch easy-to-use feature - you simply press a button - has a clear and pleasant voice that is a pleasure to help you.

Classic chronos... which would you choose?
I want to get a traditional looking chrono, bi-compax, but with more modern dimensions. At this point, I am between the Girard Perregaux 1966 Chrono, or the AP Jules Audemars Gstaad Classic. The GP is 42mm and the AP 41mm, so not much difference there. Both have in-house movements, with an add-on chrono module, so again, both are similar there. Besides the looks of the watch, it comes down to what you get for your money. For about the same price, I can get the Girard Perregaux in 18K gold, but besides the brand not being up there with AP, the movement is not as nicely finished as the AP. The AP on the other hand is Titanium (vs 18K), but has a nicer (better?) movement ticking inside. This particular GP has been discontinued, just like the AP, and both can be had at a very good discount BNIB. Which would you choose?

How did you feel when your $18,000 watch got seriously scratched?!
Hi guys need some support from this great place. Having lusted after the Diver for ages I finally got it, love it. But! The bezel is a scratch magnet! OMG! And it's getting worse! Now I don't baby my watches but have never had this level of damage - and it's getting worse! How much does a new bezel cost, and can you get it refurbished by AP? It seems no matter the precautions I take this thing is getting battered, and this is my most expensive piece!

SMP pictures please...
I am very inpatiently wateing for a SMP 2255.80 right now and would like some SMP pics to hold me over..

The Journey
Lately, I have been thinking about my watch journey and how I got to where I am today. I've been active in the watch world for about 10 years now and its been quite a fun journey. Been to a handful of watch GTGs over the years and have made some really good friends. My first nice watch I purchased on my honeymoon; a two tone Tag Heure Link Chronograph. Two years later purchased a Rolex 14060M to celebrate the birth of my daughter. After that it was off to the races and I have had over 100 watches since then. Thankfully I became friends with the DavidSWs and JustRolexes of the world and got to have fun with watches at rock bottom prices. I've even had the privilege of being around guys with vintage watches that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. For awhile now I have really enjoyed Panerai. It's a watch brand that I always come back to. I have come to the conclusion that they are some of the best designed watches ever made. As I look at the 372 on my wrist right now, I feel it is a
