Last Chance To Enter And Win The Pulsar Automatic Watch
I think there has been some misunderstanding. A surprisingly low number of people entered to win the Puslar Men's Automatic watch. This really cool dress watch that has Pulsar made automatic movement, and is a nice 45mm wide in size. Pulsar is a Seiko group owned brand, and this timepiece is a glowing example of a modern, traditional Japanese mechanical dress watch. You can't sport a sport watch all the time? Retail price is $250. You have just a bit of time to enter before the giveaway ends at the end of August.Enter to win the Pulsar Men's Automatic Watch here.

Another reason why Omega is great
They are focused on what the customers want. I often wear my Speedmaster on a Bulang & Sons cordovan strap. I was at the boutique at the Short Hills Mall a few weeks ago, and asked about buying an Omega buckle (the one from B&S is nice, but I thought it would be cool to have an Omega one). No problem, they said! Only $45. I love Rolex, but they would never make something like this so easy. Before and after pics...

Geneva Patek Boutique Visit
Recently got back from Geneva from a watch binge... lol. We visited the Patek boutique in the city center. They had these 3 beauties! They had all of the Nautilus models to see if I wished. They were not for sale and only there so clients can try them on, but what a treat it was. The 5726 is calling my name!! I just don't know if I can endure the wait time.... The gentlemen was nice enough to take us to the 5th floor where they hold client events overlooking the lake. No pictures were allowed of the interior though. Certainly a great experience.

OMG I tried on a Nautilus...
I've considered myself a pretty happy AP owner. For some variety I've also got a VC, PAM, BP & Sinn. But I'm in Chicago tonight for a meeting over the weekend and tonight I wandered into Tourneau. I know their reputation but started talking to the saleswoman there who happened to be the Patek specialist. She was great. After some discussion, she asked me if I wanted to try on the 5980. So let me just say that unless you have unbelievable self-control, say no to that question. Wow, having one on your wrist is just unexplainable. Pictures do not do it justice. It is the classiest watch that I have ever seen. Now my only problem is that I want one. I can't picture me buying any other watch. What have I done?

50th Anniversay Sub back from 2nd Rolex Service
I just picked up my 50th Anniversary Submariner which I have owned for almost 10 years from the Rolex Boutique here in Southern California. This was the 2nd time I had taken it back to them for a service within 3 months. It was not even close on accuracy after the first service. The dealer said they would ship it back to Dallas to have them recalibrate it again. So essentially I was without the watch for nearly 4 months. I asked them if they could expedite it since it took 8 weeks the first time and it wasn't serviced correctly but they said No, it will take another 8 weeks. It was a disappointing experience. The store seemed like they could care less. I have no idea if they even sent it back for a recalibration. I hope so! I am going to check the accuracy but I guess in the future I should take it directly to Rolex in Beverly Hills or ship my watches myself. Has anyone else had a poor experience with Rolex service? Has anyone bypassed the AD stores? I know some prefer independent s
