IN THE SHOP: Eleven New Vintage Watches For Sale, Including A Mint, Full-Set Red Sub, A Grail Amongs
And we're back! Yes, after dropping 12 vintage watches last Wednesday (of which 10 have already sold) we've decided to keep the hits coming with 11 new additions to the H Shop. This time we've found a few blue-chips, as always, like the most amazing Red Submariner you will ever see (complete with every accessory you can ever ask for), the insanely rare and highly sought after solid-gold Heuer Carrera from 1960s (find another, we dare you), and more. Have a glance below for some details and check them all out right here in the HODINKEE Shop. 1970s Red Submariner With Full Boxes, Papers, Hang Tags, And More 1 OF 10 For years, the Red Submariner has been atop the kingdom of non-gilt-dial Submariners, and it has always been a fan-favorite among vintage watch lovers for its single line of red text and immensely useful date window. The Red 1680 remains an all-time classic that readers have actually written in to request, and us being us, we've gone ahead

AP Royal Oak 15400 Lightshow III - Sundance
This is my third album of my new favorite watch. I simply can't stop taking pictures of it! This time, the theme is the light reflection under sunlight. I was told the white dial in particular looks spectacular under sunlight. Like this shot taken in my car : Just want to share. As usual, all pics taken with just my mobilephone camera. I will be using my DSLR later on, once I have master the techniques. Have a great weekend!

Why would someone do this?
The last 2 places I have been to try watches on the sales woman (both times) has wiped their thumb over the crystal (without gloves on) and made a perfectly clean watch have a massive smear across it?! Is it just me who notices this?

Brietling Chronomat Evolution Two Tone
What are your views on the Brietling Chronomat Evolution Two Tone with Blue dial, just sold this last month and starting to regret it slightly!!

BLNR owners, would you....?
With the new teaser today, many are speculating a new Coke. For my fellow BLNR owners, if a Coke was released, would you:Unload your BLNR for a Coke?Keep your BLNR and add the Coke?Keep your BLNR and not add the Coke?Personally, I am not a fan of red on watches. The exception is on the 16710 as the blue and red go well together, but that is it. Actually, I'm not much of a fan of red generally speaking. I am content with the BLNR as I favor blue in just about anything. I see all the BLNR will drop to $6000 posts but I disagree. I think more of the masses prefer blue to red in general as well.As exciting as a new coke may be, I will be hanging onto my BLNR. Edit: I'm not hating on the potential new coke as a BLNR owner. I just don't like red much. I know many WIS will be happy if this comes true, and I'll be happy for them getting what they want.
