Cartier Must Autoscaph 21 Watch Available On James List
Here is one of those interesting Cartier watches that you don't see very often. Out of production for maybe a decade now, this is a rare, true sports watch from the 'fancy watch brand.' Many of you might be familiar with the Must 21 collection from Cartier. The chronograph is probably the most well known of the line. Though the Autoscaph 21 is sportiest version around. An interesting mixture of traditional Cartier elements and a sporty look. Only thing that may prevent people from sporting the Autoscaph today is the size. Medium at best, the little guy is just a hair under 37mm wide. Then again, it is perfect for the modern lady if she likes it.Set in a steel case with a nice polished black stone cabochon in the crown, this is a Cartier watch all the way through. The bezel visually integrates into the sloped flange chapter ring right under the sapphire crystal. The steel on steel look is nice, but makes the dial look pretty small. Which it is. A design experiment if anything. Makes for

Which of these 3 gets your nod?
Hi everyone,I'm going to be purchasing my first Omega shortly. The 3 left in contention are:1) Seamaster 300 (black bezel and dial-model #2254.50-discontinued)2) Seamaster 300 titanium (black dial-model #2231.50)3) 42mm Planet Ocean (Black dial and bezel-model #2201.50)This watch will be my daily wearer. Personally, i like all 3 of the models, but thought i would ask for opinions from those with more experience and knowledge as to your recommendations regarding the pros and cons of each of these. Additionally, what type (% wise) discount should i be looking for off list on these models, and, do any of you have any AD's that you would strongly recommend and will ship out of state? Please feel free to send me a PM if you don't feel comfortable posting their contact info on here.Thanks for your help!

Semi-mild rant about Watches of Switzerland/UK
So, walked in a branch, asked what the price/availability is on a 5167R. This arrogant sales attendant says oh, it's a waitlist piece, we only reserve it to our most loyal customers. I don't think we can put you on a list.Ok then. Fine. Thankfully there's a store across the street from them who said I should get it within 6-8 weeks.
