Paul Newman Ltd Edition 1957 Panda Dial
So the Paul Newman reference is a headline grabber but I thought I'd share some pics of my latest find...It's a Japanese market only Ltd Edition Speedmaster Date reference 323.30.40.40.02.001Saw this little beauty and couldn't pass up the opportunity to grab it. A limited edition to 2009 pieces only and this one was NOS in the box. Despite being a safe queen, after a full wind and a few days of running, it is within COSC at -1.8/day which is pretty amazing I think.I love the Panda Dial on this one. In bright light it's almost pure white, but in subdued indoor lighting the dial takes on the appearance of a beautiful creamy colour.I'd never seen one of these before this one and this was one of those rare examples we sometimes come across where the decision to pull the trigger and buy it needed little to no thought.It's a 40mm case and wears a little small compared to the usual watches in my rotation, but still looks great on my 7 wrist.I'm not usually a fan of chronometers but the speedy

Pam90 Date Change
I just had a horrible experience with my Pam90 which brings me to question what I did wrong.I pulled my watch out of my box and wound it to about 50%. I then set the time to 9:30 pm. I then tried to change the date. The date wheel kept getting stuck halfway through the change. I didn't have a problem changing the date by advancing the time 24 hours though.I then changed the time, setting it forward a few hours and then tried to change the date again. No luck.I tried this several times thinking that maybe I just didn't have the crown in the right position. Got to a point where the date wheel was stuck halfway and wouldn't budge at all. I then cycled the time by 24 hours and the date didn't change at all like it had done before. Kept advancing the time and on the 3rd cycle the date changed. I then advanced the time to 12 noon and then the date changed worked fine...I then tried to change the date using the hour hands again and now the date changes at 3 am and not midnight...Any
