Maurice Lacroix Pontos Dcentrique GMT Pink Gold
Eccentric by natureIt takes its place among watchmaking creations as an original clock immediately identifiable by its architectural lines and innovative design contemporary with off-centered functions. This eccentric view attracts the eye, he plunges into the subtleties in the heart of this masterpiece, which has been attributed to a prestigious prize avant-garde design: the Red Dot Design Award 2006.

Truth be told, it is the weakest point of the watch ... perhaps the only weak point.

Squint Omega Watch
Do you remember the Omega with the 12 o'clock at 3 o'clock ? I think Isaw it in the late 60's or early 70's and I can't remember what it was called.I couldn't afford it then and had to make do with a $15 Seiko , which I stillhave and is keeping great time, I am getting all nostalgic now. What was it called and does anyone have pictures?

Advice for Patek newbie
Hello all,My apologies for asking a question I'm sure has been addressed.I'm very interested in a 5712, and this being my first Patek, I'm looking for advice. 1) I have no existing relationship with the only Patek AD in my state. So am I going to be laughed out of the store if I ask about a 5712 list (a la DaytonaC)?2) If my lack of a relationship with local Patek AD means getting one is going to be extremely difficult, I am open to going gray market. My hesitation here is with the papers. How does one get the piece serviced without having your name on the papers? If I go to the same AD (who don't know me) to get it sized, is that going to be an issue?At the end of the day, I'd love to go the AD route, but not if it's going to be a Rolex Daytona-esque runaround with a mythical list and waiting time while I build up my status buying other watches I only half want.Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.

How accurate is your Patek(s)?
My 5396 is most accurate mechanical watch that I have ever owned. The watch is running at +1 sec. per week for the past 5 weeks. +/- 1 sec. per week is almost unimaginable for any mechanical watch.
