Porsche Design Timepiece No. 1 Debuts
The Porsche Design Timepiece No. 1 is the first watch to debut from the new "independent" Porsche Design watch brand. We first spoke about the upcoming Porsche Design Timepiece No. 1 here, when discussing Porsche Design's plans to produce their own watches after breaking up with long-term production partner Eterna.You can see that previous article for more information, but in a nutshell, rather than work with outside partners, Porsche Design will be doing watch production themselves. Apparently, that also means in-house movement production in the future, but we aren't there yet. For now, Porsche Design has released two new timepieces (essentially the same watch with different case finishes, but with two different names) that are the Porsche Design Timepiece No. 1 and the Porsche Design Chronograph Titanium Limited Edition. Nice watches, but the names are a bit bland.Let's further be clear that both watches are limited editions, and that the difference in naming is pretty confusing for

Brietling from Costco
I sent Costco an Email today as I am looking to buy a Chronomat B01 on their website for $5499. I know this would not have manufacturers warranty. but if this falls under Costco's Guaranteed satisfaction for as long as you own the product I will likey get it at Costco. I returned a 2 year old TV and they were good about it but have since changed their policy regarding electronics and PCs. But I don't think watches fall under that. If they email me back and say I am covered until i am no longer satisfied it's a no brainer to buy from them and save $3000 over my local AD who wants MSRP and does not have the dial I want. Costco went to battle with Rolex over selling Rolex in their warehouses and apparently Rolex won.

Bezel insert.. Would you change it?
I have purchased this oem insert for my omega. Now that I have it I'm not 100% sure if I should change it out. What do you think?? Thanks. With this...

Thinking of selling new Planet Ocean
I got the PO a week ago to be my daily wearer, but I think I'm turning out to be a Rolex Guy. It's the 42mm one with black bezel and SS bracelet. New condition, bought from an AD. It actually keeps much better time than my Rolex, at less than +1 second per day. Don't know what to price it at though. Not crazy about ebay, where do you guys post? If it doesn't sell, I'll probably just get an orange bezel for it to differentiate it more from by Sub and just keep it, but I would rather put it towards another rollie at the moment.

Another heads up, DSSD x2 in Rome
Another heads up. In Rome now on holiday and there are 2x DSSD as of yesterday available in the 4 central Rome dealers I looked at.One at Bedetti and one at Hausmann & Co. Via dei Condotti 28.The other Hausmann & Co. nearby also had a Submariner 114060 in stock.
