Christophe Claret X-TREM-1 Watch
Mr. Claret, I will take five! That ought to do just fineHere is another super high-end, experimental, and unique exotic luxury watch designed to stimulate the masses and end up on the wrists of just a few. It is true that including variations on the word "extreme" as part of the name of something quickly went out of style a few years ago (do you recall when everything was "eXtreme?!"), in this case I will give Christophe Claret a pass because he turned the name into a acronym of sorts. "XTREM" stands for "Experimental Time Research Engineering Mechanism." Wait, doesn't that pretty much everything CC releases these days?Extreme or pristine, the X-TREM-1 watch is both visually interesting and technically fascinatingand it uses magnets! Not impressed? I actually am because magnets are the traditional enemy of mechanical watches. Nothing like magnetism to totally screw up the operation of precisely moving parts. Ever wonder why "anti-magnetic" watches are a big deal? In the X-TREM-1 magnet

26400 FC 44 for PP 5164...would ya ?
Simple proposition is on the table. Would have to add a few K. Any thoughts would be appreciated. For full disclosure I do have a 5980r and AP diver both of which would stay. TIA for all the opinions.

Found a PO Liquidmetal for sale, one issue is stopping me from pulling the trigger...
Had a opportunity to purchase a brand new PO Liquidmetal. I was ready to pull the trigger until something caught my eye..A lint or speck of dust caught my eye on on of the markers, on a closer examination with a help of loupe (Yes, I brought one along). It is a tiny dent on the edge of the 10'o clock marker. My heart just sank...I asked the sales person to inspect my findings, he agreed with me on the imperfection. At this point, he was trying to use the sale tactics on rarity of the PO LM and assured me it can be rectified with the service centre. NO DISCOUNT even with me pointing out the QC problem.He also mentioned that ceramic dial must need to be replaced or it could be just the marker. He cannot be 100% sure.Should I pull the trigger (purchase and get it fixed) or pass on this?

Storage!
How do folks store their Rolex when not in use? Crown in or out? Watch laid flat or on its side crown up? Winder/No winder?Thank you for your thoughts!
