Omega Speedmaster Mark 4.5 Watch Giveaway Winner
I was happy to get a note from the winner of the Omega Speedmaster Mark 4.5 vintage watch that I gave away here in January. Looks good for a watch from the 1970s right? Vintage Omega watches have a great tool-watch feel to them and I congratulate the winner. Thanks again to MB&F who sponsored the giveaway. The watch winner preferred to remain anonymous, but did share these thoughts (and also apologized for the photography!):"Thank you so much aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer for the opportunity to win this amazing wrist watch. Getting the watch felt like receiving a Christmas gift from my favorite watch website. The first thing that I thought when I held the watch was just how modern it felt. My personal experience with vintage watches has been mixed, but when I saw how nice this Speedy looked I was really surprised. I imagined it would be smaller but it feels just right when it is on my wrist. The dial looks really sharp and is easy to read. It took me a while to notice something very u

Basel 2017 Preview and MORE!
Last night I attended a Basel Preview event at Kirk Jewelers (wonderful time and great staff! thank you!). There are live videos and pictures on my IG stories feed if you want to check it out.The night started with a Bang with double platinum wrist time with the 5070P and the 5170P. More on how these compare later. intro.jpgAs a general matter the watches looked great! Surrounded by watches and flowing champagne... hard to go wrong! My thoughts on some of the more popular references:1. the 5170P looks great. The gradient dial is sporty and the diamonds on the dial are quite subtle (you are right KARL).2. 5230G: the case is very nice in fact (a lot has been said about the stamped case) and the steps in the lugs look great! The watch is a bit big for me and the automatic movement in this case is not to my liking. The vintage vibe is strong and I am sure it will be a popular reference.3. 5168: Too BIG! For me at least.
