Ladoire RGT "Origin Of The Sun" Piece Unique Watch
As an homage to Japan and to raise some charity money, Ladoire has produced this piece unique version of their Roller Guardian Time (RGT) watch. They call it the "Origin of the Sun," and it really is one big fanboy nod from Lionel Ladoire to Japanese Culture.The Roller Guardian Time is a very unique timepiece in the world of high-end watch making. You really need to get to know Mr. Ladoire to appreciate it and understand the lifestyle around it. With a unique shape and design, it is a special member of the world of independent horology. I first wrote about the Ladoire RGT watch here a few years ago.The premise of the large timepiece is to have a retrograde hour indicator, subsidiary minute and seconds dial, and a large second time zone hand. Think of it as a very strange regulator style watch. It takes some mental adjustment to read, but it is doable.

Is it rebairable???? (((Pics))))
Hello my friends been while since i last post here, recently i bought an AP ROO navy blue I serial from 2014 and although the watch was used but its in good shape.

Advice on Seamaster Pro Professional Quartz
So I picked-up a Seamaster Pro Quartz full size without the bracelet and I am having a heck of a time finding a strap that looks good with the blue. I have an opportunity to pick-up an OEM bracelet for about $300. That puts me into the watch like $1400 which I think would be tough to make back if I sold the watch. Question is: do I drop the $300 or keep trying blue straps to see what works? I just bought a Hirsch natural rubber in blue used and that is incoming. What a dilemma!
