Headwind
Just looking a breitling headwind on e-bay. Nice looking watch. 2000.00 w/box papers on leather. Can anyone tell me why it was discontinued, and if there were any problems with it. I did ask for #'s under band, he said he does not have a springbar tool but looks like 18003 or 18093. I know nothing about breitling, just looks like a nice watch. Any advice. Do these #'s seem right!

PO 8500 options
I'm very close to buying a Planet Ocean to compliment my Sea-Dweller and my late-60s vintage DeVille. Overall, I prefer the 2500 version with the aluminum bezel, but I don't want to turn my back on the new movement. My question is this: can I buy the orange 8500 in 42mm and then install one of the older 2500 black bezels? Will it fit?

Vintage Patek Care
Greetings. First post be kind. Photo is of my grandfather's Patek that was given to me as a gift prior to my wedding. The watch was serviced and I wore it only once on my wedding day. Since that magic day, the watch has been sitting in a safety deposit box for twenty years. My question is can I wind the watch now without doing damage? Should I service the watch first? I have lately developed the watch bug and I would like to wear the Patek maybe a couple times a year. Hesitant to do an expensive service for such limited use. Any information the forum can provide about the watch is much appreciated. Thanks

Aquanaut for small wristers
Hi all,Have always set my eye on a 5711 as my ultimate grail, but with the onslaught of new Aquanaut owners I must say my interest is being piqued.. Whatever with the almost unanimous consensus that it is the most comfortable daily wearer around..For me fit is key (which is why I have been disappointed with many previous targets like the AP Jumbo), especially with my chicken sized 6.0 inch wrist..Can I get feedback from Aquanaut owners with similarly small wrists? How is the fit, comfort and wearability? Is there any gap between the rubber strap and the wrist, like there is between straps for AP watches?Would really appreciate pictures as well!! Have tried it on at the AD but unfortunately as they cannot cut the strap, I have no idea how it is when appropriately sized..Appreciate that the Nautilus is universally lauded as being more iconic, but if the Aquanaut offers much greater comfort, that might just swing me towards it..Thanks all!!

Your 1st Rolex. Let's see them.
If you still have it. Let's see them. This is my 1st Rolex, a 14060M. F serial. I purchased in 2004/2005. It now sits on my old dad's wrist. I was visiting my parents today and snapped this pic. I've had many Rolex come and go since, but this one will never be sold. He's worn, cherished, trashed, and lived in this watch for the last few years. It's been serviced and crystal replaced after a mishap. Never polished. And he's never asked, can I wear it while I ..........?. I look forward to seeing your responses.
