Nike MAG Shoes From Back To The Future Actually For Sale
I couldn't help but write about this. You might already know about these, which means you think they are as cool as I do. Nike has decided to build a limited edition set of the Nike MAG shoes from Back to the Future Part II as part of their "It's About Time" collection. These shoes have until now only existed as movie props. People have been begging Nike to actually make them for years - and here they are. There will be 1,500 pairs made - every single one will be auctioned off on eBay from now until September 18th, 2011.Every kid who has ever seen the Back to the Future movies has wanted at least part of what they saw in the films to be real. 26 years later and we don't really have much. No time machines, no hover boards, no flying cars. Not even flux capacitors. And we certainly don't have self lacing, self drying shoes that make cool wooshing noises.

Linde Werdelin Oktopus 1,111 Meter Dive Watch
Another new watch for Linde Werdelin in 2009 is the Oktopus. Building on the Biformeter watch case and theme, the Oktopus is a beefed up version of the models in the already sharp looking Linde Werdelin watch line. This is also the first dedicated diver's watch for the quickly growing brand �� featuring a rotating diver's bezel and integrated helium escape valve. There is also the little matter of the 1,111 meters of water resistance, that is over 3,300 feet! Almost a mile underwater �� at this point you are simply adding a wow factor to the watch. Even though you'll never go that deep, it does comment strongly on the secure construction of the watch, as well as the thickness of the metals and sapphire crystal used in its construction.The original Biformeter case profile was surprisingly thin. I discussed the watch at length in my review here. The Oktopus case is thicker by 1.5mm making it 13.5mm high (still not bad). The case is 46mm wide and 49mm tall. That sounds large, but it is real

Milgauss 116400GV
HiI rarely see people talking about Milguass - neight the new blue dial or the old one. Milgauss is one of the Vintage Rolex - at least in the book.. but rarely seen in the market or even people wearing.How so?I am in the market for 116400GV - black dial with green saphire. Anyone owning and want to share impression? Also, anyone who used to own it please share your love-hate relationship too.Looking forward to the outcome from this forum :) :) :)By the way, is the Milgauss classified as Sport or Dress? The clasp is very unique. The look is mixed between typical DateJust and Explorer for me.
Which Panda dial
The CK2998 has been sold and I'm missing a panda dial. The latest Autavia is a tad too big and I'm done with Rolex. The AP ROC looks fantastic but out my league so I'm looking for suggestions.Any thoughts
