How One Guy Made A Shockingly Good Urwerk UR-202 Watch Homage
Meet Karel, a young engineering student from San Ramon, California.?Fueled by his love for horology and?the more unusual timepieces of the 21st century, he quickly grew fond of Urwerk and their unique?ways of displaying time. In fact, he liked them so much, that he set out to harness his studies as an engineering student and?design and craft his very own homage to his favorite?high-end?watch brand �C and today, he shares his experience and achievement with us...It all started roughly 2 years ago, when I first set my eyes on a few of Urwerk's timepieces. Their watches were unlike anything I had ever seen: to me, they were modern day pioneers of the watchmaking industry. One thing that really fascinated me about these pieces was that they feature incredible advancements in horology, while seamlessly meshing these mechanisms in a very aesthetically pleasing way. It is not uncommon to see a watch that is packed full of incredible engineering feats, while the rest of the design seems to be a

Need some help on a gift for my mother's 60th birthday
My mom is tuning 60 and I'm looking at getting her an AP. Let me start with a little background. My mom is the hardest working person I've ever met in my life. My parents got divorced when I was 2 and my mom raised me. We lived in a 1 bedroom apartment for years while she worked full days and got her college degrees at night. She earned her bachelors and masters and now manages the OC office for one of the top 10 law firms in the US. My mother and father ended up getting remarried when I was 12 and they had two more kids. My father was a firefighter that passed away on duty 5 years ago and my mom still fully supports both of my brothers. She also watches both of my young kids when my wife needs a break (1-2x per week) even though my mom still works 50+ hours a week. I want to get her a gift for her 60th that she will enjoy for many years to come and she would never get herself. I'm thinking of getting her a Lady Royal Oak in rose gold with diamond bezel or the new rose gold lady millen

Congrats AP Diver Ceramic!
Cant take my eyes off that ceramic diver. :)

Excited.. joining the patek club. 5196R on its way....
Yes, another thread about joining the “club...” I just scored what I feel is a GREAT deal on a rose gold Patek Calatrava 5196.. box, papers, looks to be pristine condition... I’ve waited, I’ve asked, I’ve researched, and researched, and inquired on expired ads.. chrono24, TRF, ad after ad not deleted properly or,updated (why do sellers not update the ads on TRF after sellers sell their watches...). I bought from a TRF seller with absolutely impeccable feedback, but ironically not via TRF for this piece.. I’m excited and will post a few pics when I receive the piece. My 6.25 inch wrists will likely suit the 5196 well. I welcome feedback from other 5196 owners. I really researched this and feel like I have bought the watch that suits me. I love the solid case back and I love the look of the watch as it looks nearly 100 years old... I guess its design is.. I needed a nice dress watch and this perfectly fits. Feedback from other 5196 owners welcome.. I d
