IWC Three-Hand Ingenieur Sport Watches For 2013
Perhaps IWC's new 40mm wide Ingenieur dress watch was the most talked about new Ingenieur piece for 2013, but for those who like larger sport watches, these more simple-dialed Ingenieur pieces will fit the bill. Whether it is a phase or just because I like loud watches, I fully appreciate smaller dress watches, but simply have so little time in my life to wear them. When choosing a watch to wear on a daily basis, I tend to opt for three-hand sport watches that are at least 42-44mm wide. Knowing that about myself makes me pay close attention to those new watches that would probably see a lot of time on my wrist. At SIHH 2013, IWC debuted two such models, the Ingenieur Automatic AMG Black Series Ceramic and the Ingeniuer Automatic Carbon Performance.Both of these watches have a lot in common. Most important to IWC is probably that they are each produced as part of the brand's relationship with the Mercedes AMG Pertronas race team that competes in Formula 1 races. IWC more or less transfo

Linde Werdelin and the SpidoLite II Titanium Blue, Red, And Black Gold Watches
Linde Werdelin has announced three new entries into the SpidoLite II family of limited edition sport watches. The new SpidoLite II Titanium releases include Red, Blue or Black Gold versions which offer you a choice of either bright colors or a modern take on the two-tone aesthetic.The SpidoLite series, like the SpidoSpeed, exhibit many of the signature elements that have helped Linde Werdelin build a loyal following, including the skeletonized case structure, detailed dial design, and a wrist presence that is all on its own.The Red, Blue and Black Gold versions of the SpidoLite II Titanium are 44 mm wide and 15 mm thick and directly in line with the rest of the LW lineup, which is comprised of mostly larger watches. They feature a 19 piece case which is made entirely of titanium that has been treated to a blasted finish before having its edges and accents satin finished. The effect is fantastic and really highlights the darker tones present in the bare titanium of the Blue and Red vers

My first Rolex purchase....
Hello all, I'm a city public school teacher, run a couple non-profits where I mentor youth, and I grind the 1/2 and 2/5 seen in holdem and pot limit omaha. The first two pay me spiritually, and the later has been good the last couple months, so I have found it's time to fill the poker grinder stereotype and get a nice watch since card rooms never have a clock.Below is my first potential Rolex purchase. I know a little less about Rolex watches than I do kangaroo birth, so much so that I had to type Rolex watches because I can't figure out the plural of Rolex. Can't be the guy who says shrimps, am I right? *pics removed*The person claims that it needs the mainspring fixed on the second hand.My questions are:Does it seem legit?Who should I bring it to to fix it? Any watch smith or do they need to specialize in Rolexessss's?What would a fair used price be for this?Thanks for anyone who reads this!--

Wait for Daytona C or BLNR?
Like many here, I'm on a waitlist at a small-mid sized AD for a white Daytona-C. I've been bugging the salesperson with whom I've worked and have gleaned that I'm number 4-5 on the waitlist. She told me that one Daytona had been delivered to the AD so far, and that she had no idea what her allocation would be. She has said repeatedly that she expects allocation to be very modest. The release has made me anxious to pick up my first Rolex. If i were to act now, I'd pick up a BLNR from a trusted dealer. I really love that watch as well, but it's hard to compete with the initial wow factor of the new Daytona releases. Still, if it will be a year till the Daytona would come, I'd be very tempted to get the BLNR. Would appreciate speculation in when i might expect to get the call for the Daytona C and what you would do in my shoes. Thanks.
