Omega boutique in Hamburg
Hi everyone, I'm in Hamburg for a few days staying at the Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten. (Have to say that I'm loving the view from my room.)As luck would have it, I'm not too far from what looks like a gigantic Omega boutique. They were closed today but looked like they had a lot of great pieces in stock. I know discounts are out of the question but what's the level of tax back I can get back at the airport? I hear 19% is the tax but hear different stories in terms of how much you can actually get back at the airport. Your thoughts on this would be very appreciated.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you check accuracy on your watches?
As you may know I started with Rolex used to be,3135 and especially the 4130 mvmnt is pretty accurate if well regulated and staying so for years.My 5712 w the cal 240 was okay initially 1-2s/day but seems we are after the honeymoon phase ,during the day is very accurate but it does 5sec w dial up overnight and 1-2s if left on crown up or down.You may say it s time to regulate however i m afraid we talk about weeks for a simple regulation job-which is about 5minutes if you bring a Rolex to the RSC-.:-(Any experience with the rate stability of Pateks ?do you think it s better to live with it and wait for a couple of months to see if it s getting worse.Thanks for your input

Pre-Owned yachtmaster II value?

A Christmas Incoming!
Well, what can I say. This one has been calling my name...ever since I flipped it earlier this year. Not the first time I've flipped this model, but definitely the most painful. Anywho...I did a little shuffling around in the collection and my secret (well, maybe not so secret) Santa Patrick made my Christmas dreams come true. And...since I just had the big 6-0 this month, retired from a second career, and it is well...Christmas, I thought, what better time to make this happen?OK. So in my haste to size it, wrap it and put it under the tree, I forgot to take a pic. Sorry guys. I know how we like pics here. But...I did snap this pic of the aftermath. Hey, better than nothing, right? Check out all the cool stuff Patrick put in his care package. And I promise to share a pic or two when I've opened my present on Christmas Day.
