Magrette Regattare Bronze Watch
The newest limited edition watch from New Zealand based Magrette is this Regattare Bronze (technically called the Ragattare Vintage Bronze), and there is a lot to love here. The Regattare collection is one of Magrette's mainstay models that have seen numerous versions and revisions over the years. Now in bronze, collectors and style aficionado's get an interesting case material option at+ a solid price.Bronze is not typically used for watch cases but 2010 and 2011 saw a range of bronze watches being released for the collector's market. It would be a tough material to sell to the mainstream given the metal's tendency to oxidize - which is exactly why some collector's like the material though. Bronze develops a patina over time (not that much time) that appears like discoloration on the metal. This is valued to some collectors as their watch will not only look unique (no two age the same) but also because the aging will help the timepiece look like a vintage item.For the 44mm wide Regatt

Date not advancing via Crown on 15300
Hi Folks.Recently, I have not been able to advance the date via the crown. However, I can advance the hands and the date will turnover. Seems to keep the date fine this way. Has anyone ever had this happen? Not sure if it is a known issue / if the quickset mechanism is misaligned. Not keen on sending it to Clearwater, but certainly will if I have to.Thanks!
