Phosphor Touch Time Watch On Kickstarter + Interview
If you are in need of any additional proof that Kickstarter is a great place to fund the development of a new watch, look no further than the Touch Time project from California based Phosphor Watches. Phosphor is well-known for their innovative digital watches which often feature E Ink (e-Ink) displays and have a sense of eye-catching charm. On August 6th, 2012 Donald Brewer and the team at Phosphor launched a Kickstarter project for their newest design, dubbed "Touch Time". Within 24 hours they had reached their $50,000 goal and, as of the time of posting, they have over 1000 backers and well over $125,000 in funding. Perhaps this is not surprising given the success of other watch projects such as the Pebble. Nevertheless it is further evidence that the Kickstarter crowd really loves watches.The Touch Time is a digital watch that offers a series of features including an alarm, stopwatch, reminders, world time, calendar, calculator and moon-phase which are all controlled via a touch sc

Please help identify watch model, year, and approximate pricing
I have an AP watch with no model, the only thing I have is in the back of the watch there is a print B57672. Please see attach picture.Is it worth it to buy it for $2000? Is it real? Any help to tell if it's real or not is very much appreciated

Which of these ROOs would you choose?
So I bit the AP bug. Recently picked up an AP ROO Diver and am so in love with it. I would like to have one more ROO in my permanent collection and something a little different from the Diver. Out of the following four choices, which one would you pick and why?I don't like the rubber bezel ones and FC cases are ou of my price range.1) ROO Safari2) ROO Panda (with te red accents)3) ROO Titanium - gray dial4) ROO VocanoTIA!

SMP 300 - Another COSC question
So my Dad's SMP300 - brand new model bought in April of 2012 - has been running fast.I bought it for Dad, so I said I'd deal with sending it back for warranty/adjustment or try to take it to the new local AD that just opened about 1 month ago.Couple things:1. So it's running solid at +5.7 seconds (average over 3.5 days) and I anticipate by the end of the week to be averaging over +6 each day. By this, I mean that each day its gaining a full 5 to 6 seconds from the atomic clock. So, from the mark, or synch time with the atomic clock 3.5 days ago, the watch has gained 20 seconds.(meanwhile, my Speedy Auto has gained 4 seconds since I synched from Daylight Savings to Standard time over a week ago!!)2. I think it should be adjusted...do I send it to Omega or should I try the new AD which is really close by...3. I didn't buy it at the AD since they didn't carry Omega at the time, would they still adjust it under warranty?I haven't had any experience dealing with any of these issues, so I
