Talking Watches: With Jason Singer
Over my time in watches, I have been lucky enough to become acquainted with some truly great scholars and collectors. The greatest scholars – the folks that lead our study and interpretation of collectible watches – are often quiet, reserved people who do what they do because they love and want to understand watches for everyone, not for show or ego. The man you are about to meet has been collecting watches for 32 years, he is an American, and until recently, very few outside his closest circle of friends (think Aurel Bacs and John Goldberger) knew his name. He has been quietly amassing a truly world-class collection that will absolutely leave you in shock and awe – he collects only the rarest and only the absolute finest quality. This, our 15th episode, is your official HODINKEE Talking Watches with Jason Singer. 1 OF 46 1930s Rolex Bubbleback 'First Series' 2 OF 46 Singer has a world-class selection of Rolex Bubblebacks – no

Seamasters
Omega Seamasters are synonimous with dive watch, but it seems that finally omega is going back to its roots with the aqua terra range, where they were more dress type watches, which were waterproof. I think that at the moment seamasters are the most affordable of vintage omegas, and if you look, you can pick up all original nice omega seamasters for $200-300.here is an early 1950's one which i picked up from a friend..cost slightly more than that estimate.. buyt not too much more..here are my other semasters..when you think that these cost less than what fake omegas are bringing.. you wonder why anyone would buy a fake omega / rolex.. when you can get a real vintage omega for $$$$ less.

5167 Update / Initial Thoughts
As a recent acquirer of this fine PP, I have to say that it's very comfortable. I own a few Rolex pieces including a SubC and the PP blows it away when it comes to comfort and wearability so far. It's like having a ghost of a watch on your wrist. Very lightweight and yet so polarizing with the dial color and legibility. Anyway, just my .02 for those on the proverbial fence.

Case engraving
Not too sure if appropriate but saw a nice reference for sales in Garage sales and the case engravings are very much off to my eyes. Im new to vintage, is this the norm in vintage pieces?

Kicking Back on Grey Cup Sunday
Well to my Canadian friends and other fans around the world, Happy Grey Cup Sunday. Kicking back in yard getting ready to get the BBQ going for our party. Hoping the Argos kick some ass. My trusty Sub C will help me time meat on the grill!
