Royal Oak Equation of Time
How do you read the EOT? For me, it's a bit too complex, so I took the easy way... Guess how was it read? The pic was shot at AP Singapore boutique. Thanks to the wonderful staff

speedy pro question on msrp
talked to jorge at the omega boutique in vancouver, he said the speedy 3570.50 went for $4500 plus the 12% tax.....that puts this watch at 5k out the door....is that correct? i asked if there were any discounts and he kinda stuttered 'uh....no'.what does that watch go for on the 'trusted seller' market in canada?

Indecision about the Omega Speedmaster Pro
Hi everyone,I'm struggling with a decision about pursuing the Omega Speedmaster Pro (3570.50 or the 3573.50). I keep coming back to it but can never pull the trigger on it. I already have a chronograph, and several other nice watches (i.e., Rolex, Omega, GS). My near-daily watches are the Rolex Sub-date and the Rolex Explorer II-Polar.Why the hesitation about the Speedmaster Pro?

Unload 425 or 557 for 233 Please advise
I currently own two base Panerai 425 and 557. I want to add a 233 for its complications and date. I need to unload either the 425 or 557 to fund for the 233. The problem is I like them equally and I can't make up my mind. I am set for the 233 so I'll end up with 1 base and 1 complication to my PAM collection. If you guys have time please give me your 2 cents and help me justify what piece to let go and keep. Thanks again TRF.

Five year old watch breaks for second time
Purchased a sub c just over 5 years ago and wouldn't even call it a daily. Two years in it stopped and was told while still under warranty a jewel had come loose and jammed the movement. Received full service at the time Today just 3 years later I've been daily wearing it while down in Florida Swimming etc but certainly nothing out of the ordinary. All of a sudden it just stopped. Tried winding but seems nothing catches when I'm trying to wind it. I can change time and date no problem but nothing will get it going. Mainspring? Lube job? Stem problem ?Really though. Twice in 5 years. I beat the snot out of my Seiko daily and still runs like a top
