The Rolex Cellini Collections: Here’s What You Need to Know
Rolex watches are the most recognized, high-profile timepieces available. When the occasion calls for something dressed-up, look no further than the manufacture's Cellini line of elegant dress watches. Rolex launched three new and distinctive Cellini families at Baselworld 2014. Here's what you need to know.Cellini timepieces are known for their refined elegance and simplicity, and the new families continue that tradition. Each family is named for the information it conveys: Time, Date, and Dual Time �C names as pure as the watches themselves.Though the families differ based on degree of mechanical complication, they share several attributes. The cases are available exclusively in 18k white or Everose gold that has been cast by Rolex in its own foundry. At 39 mm, the cases are perfectly sized for modern dress watches. Each case is topped by a two-tier bezel �C one smooth and the other with the trademark Rolex fluting. Similar fluting provides functional decoration on the caseback. A spec

Omega Boutique - great visit.
Had a great visit to the local Omega Boutique yesterday. They had the new Speedy Pro with the new watch box in, and I stopped by to take a look. Nice box, which is available separately for $750 and includes the box, commemorative medallion, strap tool, two straps, loupe, and two books. While I was there, they presented me with this great gift. I was pleased that they wanted me to have it, and am sure I'll enjoy it immensely. It's several hundred pages all about the Moonwatch in its various incarnations, and is valued at over $300 US.

This Maratac composite strap just arrived:It matches up nicely with the box although I wish it tapered down. But for $20, I can't complain.Fr. John?

YMII timer engaged perpetually
Can someone with actual knowledge on the matter please shed some light on the affect or lack thereof having chrono (timer) on all the time... I love the hacking seconds hand look of any automatic watch but the red hand on the YMII is always fixed position unless (I know the subdial is the actual seconds hand however it is practically unnoticeable) the countdown timer is engaged and I don’t really care for it like that in static position.... you think it will damage or wear down the movement much sooner, also what happens to the mechanics of it once the countdown hits 0 from 10 and it if stays engaged..

Let��s see those different shades of the BLNR aka the ��Batman��
