My 6 year old's got the bug...
Well he's almost seven but he's got the watch bug early. He's been bugging my wife for 4 months straight about the Dark Side of the Moon. I finally took him down to the boutique to see it in person. He's convincing me to buy it so I can pass it on to him later on. I keep telling him next year, next year boy. I'm going to have just as hard as a time waiting as he is.

Have a Safe Trip, Omega Deville F300Hz!!
Well I just waived good-bye and wished a safe trip to my Omega Deville F300hz. Its destination? Belmont, New Hampshire!! It leaves to the health clinic To my watchmaker Denis Carignan. He's gonna do an overhaul and a nice clean up and restoration of the case. I hope it comes back in a month or so. I'm really excited for this! One of my grails has always been the F300hz Series!It left me like this... and I hope it comes back looking like new!!

When I saw it first, I instantly fell in love...a true beauty in my eyes, the domed crystal, the sandwich dial, the brushed case and polished bezel, the 8 days power indicator, the AM/PM indicator and the GMT function. In short my daily friend and a keeper.And my good friend when I smoke my current favorite cigar, the Sancho Panza Eslavo regional release for Serbia, released 2014.Life can be beautiful.

I took a link out and but by afternoon it's a little too snug and I worry about stretching.My AD said there's no half links for the jubilee.Any thoughts?

So my 116610LN finally arrived...
I was about to quit on this one. In fact, I did kinda quit by cancelling my order and requesting the refund of the deposit. The shop had estimated 1-2 months but was taking 3 already. Strangely, when I tried to cancel, a unit became available almost immediately. Here are some photos... got it on the 15th..4 days ago. Haven't even taken it outside yet. Things:-Was indeed new and the warranty is almost fully complete. Warranty card was filled in 3.5 month ago at an AD.-I had requested the bracelet resize, but later told them not to do it. They did it anyway. But the job seems good, screws look perfect and the size is OK, I think the clasp is actually very close to being perfectly centered. I thought about trying to adjust it better myself, now that I bought a screwdriver, but I don't think it is needed (anyone wants to buy a good unused rolex scredriver? :)-Seems to run well. I only timed it for 4 days, which is not enough, but the current average is +0.5s/day. The best watch I had in th
