Celebrity Wrist Watch: Samuel L. Jackson Sports Piaget in “The Avengers”
In Marvel Studios’ new blockbuster film “The Avengers,” Samuel L. Jackson plays Nick Fury, leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., the top-secret government agency behind the formation of the world’s mightiest super-hero team. But the watch he’s wearing in the movie is no longer a secret: it’s a decidedly masculine model from Piaget’s iconic Polo collection.The watch is a Piaget Polo Chronograph, powered by Piaget’s in-house Caliber 880P movement. The model that Jackson wears in the movie has an 18k white gold case, silver dial and black alligator strap. In addition to its automatic chronograph with flyback function (perfect for Fury to monitor the time-sensitive espionage missions of his agents), the watch also features a dual-time-zone indication (ideal for keeping track of time in another zone while cruising around the globe in the massive S.H.I.E.L.D.

First Nice Watch
So I joined the forum a few months ago to educate myself on Rolex's. I have always wanted a submariner and had my heart set on a no date 14060M. I prefer the vintage style and size of earlier watches and didn't want anything flashy. Eventually after looking around I just didn't feel confident enough to buy a used Rolex either online or private party. I had a local dealer quote me a price on a used one which was basically new msrp.Dismayed I began looking for alternatives. That's when I found the Omega 60th anniversary collection and specifically the Seamaster. I know some find this to be fake vintage, but this watch had everything I was looking for. It's the right size, clean lines and dial and will be a perfect one watch for daily wear.The watch arrived today and am extremely excited. I don't think I would have had the same feeling with a used Rolex.Pictures to follow when it's light out and bracelet is sized.

Basel - 126610LN and 126660 prediction
Prediction, this year change with the 3-day movement for sub and deepsea to 126610 and 126660. But the outlooks will remain the same.Sure the price of both will go up for around 15%+ so that sub, sd, and ds prices will have an even difference between each others.The same logic apply to sub no date to 124060.Thoughts?
