The Techy & Innovative Automatic Caliber CFB A1000 Watch Movement From Carl F. Bucherer
Don't worry that there is no watch to go with this movement yet. The caliber CFB A1000 is a really nice little machine on it's own. A few months ago I got a chance to mess around with it in person. The first thing you notice about it, is that it looks very little like most mechanical movements that you have seen. There is a distinctive 'circuit board' look to it, that commands a more modern perspective than the classic nature of most mechanical movements. This really represents taking the tried and true idea of mechanical movements and using extremely sophisticated computer design means of producing and improving upon very old principles.When I mentioned to the Carl F.

Visiting Boston for the week and stopped by European Watch Company again. Should have known better! Walked out with this stunner:Tony sized it perfectly -- what a great salesman. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

Please help me authenticate this GMT Master
A buddy of mine was given this watch...he isn't a watch guy so he's looking to move it. No original box, but it does have the Rolex Service Box. I only have this one picture available right now.Does anyone see anything that jumps out at them? Also hoping to get some clarity on what year it is from? Assuming it is authentic I would also like to know what price I should offer. Thanks so much for your help!
