Showing at WatchTime IBG 2014: The New Seiko Astron GPS Solar Chronograph
WatchTime and noted watch collector and expert Jeff Kingston have teamed up again for the 2014 edition of the popular “Inside Basel.Geneva” series of collector events, kicking off September 5 in Chicago. Among the timepieces featured there by the core sponsor watch brands is the new Seiko Astron GPS Solar Chronograph, which made its debut at Baselworld 2014.  The Seiko Astron GPS Solar Chronograph is the first version of the popular Astron GPS Solar with a chronograph function. Caliber 8X82 has GPS-controlled time and time-zone adjustment functions, like its predecessor. The new chronograph feature can time intervals up to six hours in length, accurate to 1/5 second. It is also easier to use than the earlier 7X52 caliber. Secondary functions, such as manual time-zone selection, can be activated through a new electronic setting function in the crown. The GPS time-setting function still works by a one-touch system: holding down a button for six seconds activates it.

aBlogtoRead.com Redesign: 2010 Makeover
New site design folks. It has been a long time coming and a lot of work went into the design and implementation. I would like to thank the designer and developer, and all of you for making it worth the time (and money). Please note that there will be little tweaks and enhancements to the site over the new few days and weeks. If you notice any problems, please report them to me.From a design perspective, the site concept is to present a technical and masculine feel, with a sense that whatever is being discussed on the site is something special. Even watch novices should come here and be impressed enough with the presentation to give the topics and items being discussed extra attention. I want you to be satisfied as a regular aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer reader, and have pride when showing the site off your peers. Thanks again, and I hope you continue to enjoy aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer.

5712 or PN Daytona??
Incidentally, I do not own a Rolex or PP yet. Future grails of mine would be a 5712 SS and/or a 6263 Daytona. I realize that the PN Daytona would be a long and arduous hunt to find an authentic piece in good condition. Additionally, some of these vintage pieces can be 6 figures, though I would shoot for one in the $40-80k range. The 5712 is well known by you all, and it is a classic Nautilus that I definitely will acquire one day. It will complete the Trinity in my collection (AP 15305OR and VC Overseas and Toledo 1952)Which would you go for first?Sent from my 16M
