H. Moser & Cie.��s Marketing Takes Aim at Apple
The smartwatch game has many in the watch world on the edge of their seats, and yesterday's Apple Watch launch is only part of the picture. Since late last year, a number of watch brands in Switzerland (and elsewhere) have been mobilizing, figuring out new strategies that will allow them to compete with Apple's high-profile new product. Brands like Montblanc, Frederique Constant and Alpina have thrown their hats in the ring quickly, debuting new wearable technology to complement their conventional wristwatches.So it was with bated breath that experts and rivals awaited H. Moser & Cie.'s new release. Beginning last week, the Neuhausen-based manufacture dropped hints of a major new debut. Moser's introduction of a haute horlogerie smart watch was scheduled for March 9 �C the same day that Apple would be unveiling its watch at the Spring Forward event in San Francisco.A week in advance of the launch, Moser's press statement teased a revolutionary creation [that] provides state-of-

So, in January I ordered a grey leather hornback strap from AP. I did this as I've never been a big fan of the rubber strap for comfort. It arrived after just 7 months! and today I went to have it put on my watch. My first surprise was that it wasn't a hornback as requested and my second surprise was that it wasn't the finish on the leather that I'd requested either. However, I'm actually pretty happy with the result. So here's a photo, the most important thing that they got perfect is the Leo Messi grey that I ordered, in the photo it's hard to tell but it's actually a perfect match with the grey dial.

AP ROO Scuba Diver - anyone got one?
I partly blame Thomas... okay, not really but AP ROO is growing on me. Quickly. Not the chronos as much as the new Scuba diver model. The AP house speaks for itself - it is one of the big 4. The style is very distinct, masculine but yet elegant. It doesn't scream luxury watch to people outside the inner circle so it is definitely something you can wear every day.This thing is growing on me. Rapidly. What is even worse, this limited edition - in orange of all colors - is growing on me as well!!!Hm, I can't really motivate one of these without giving up one my vintage Rolex, e.g. the 1665 Sea-Dweller or Zenith Daytona. I smell trouble...

Awful PASC Experience - just got my 237 Back
So, I sent my PAM 237 in to Richemont PASC for a diag/service/polish. It was the beginning of this month. I just received it back tonight and was so excited I open up the box and the cool case they send it back in. It looks so shiny and new and perfectly polished. I am excited I flip it over to the back, aww yeah polished good..... WTF... WTF IS THAT. :bang head:Seriously? It looks like somehow they missed a huge portion of gasket sticking out of the case back? I mean, for real? What is my recourse here? Am I just expected to send it back in and take it on the chin? Should I complain to PASC?Should I demand a free watch for this incompetence (joke) but seriously?
