Beautiful Israeli Itay Noy Duality Watch Collection
Itay Noy is a totally Tel Aviv, Israel based watch maker. The brand is named after its founder, Itay Noy, who is the heart of the manufacture. He's won several international design awards, which makes sense given the impressive character and refinement of his designs. With an impressive collection of watches so far for the brand,? I'd like to focus on his Duality line of watches only today. The Duality collection is literally two things in one. Two watches, with two contradictory attitudes. While not the first time a watch has been made with faces on both sides, this is the first time that I've seen an actual theme be applied to the concept. Thus, each watch in the collection is comprised of opposites, with associated symbolism on the watch designs themselves.Before discussing the various pieces on the Duality collection, lets look at the overall design of the watches. A very modern and minimalist approach is taken with the case design. A lug-less construction places the reversible lea

Citizen Campanola Minute Repeater Regulator On eBay: Auction Ends Dec-02-07 19:00:00 PST
I am always happy to share when a Citizen Campanola watch is available. Here is a relatively rare version which incorporates a true minute repeater, with a regulator face. A regulator is watch that has a separate dial for the hours and minutes. Here, the larger main dial indicates the minutes, while a smaller sub-dial indicates the hours. Of course there is a lot else at play on this watch, and the selection of the dials and gauges is quite fascinating.As most of you already know, the Citizen Campanola series of watches represents the highest level of watch making from Citizen. Each is hand assembled and lovingly detailed. The craftsmanship is really top-notch and the materials used spare no expense. To visit Citizen's Campanola home page herewatches-dealermon to many of the Campanola watches, this minute repeater also offers a full perpetual calendar and two alarm functions along with its minute repeater function. A minute repeater is watch with a chiming complication. Meaning that a

Blackish
Theres a new show on ABC called Blackish (which is extremely funny btw) but I notice that the main character is always wearing an AP. Sometimes a gold royal oak on leather strap, sometimes a gold ROC, and this latest episode he's wearing an AP Panda on bracelet. Have any of you noticed this as well?

Vintage Speedmaster Mark II Value Question
Members:First time posting.I wanted to get your take on the value of an Omega Mark II Racing dial 145.014 sold on eBay.The watch was a non-working vintage piece. Seller claimed to be the son of the original owner. His dad wore the watch until the 80's then gave it to him and he wore it until the 90's. He says it was wound too tight and needed servicing. Watch looked original as far as the crystal, all hands, along with the bracelet. No box or papers and only service history was that the seller had a watch maker clean the movement when he encountered the winding too tight issue the first time. Watch was being sold by a seller in the US.I wanted the watch for a project to restore and wear in my watch rotation. Bidding started at $450 USD and ended up selling for around $1,136 USD.Without pictures, based on my story above, what are your thoughts on the value of this non-working watch?What should I plan to expect to pay for a 145.014 mark ii with the normal dial or the racing dial?
