Magrette Regattare Moana Pacific Automatic Limited Edition Watch
This is the newest watch from favorite New Zealand watch maker Magrette. I love the retro styling of the dial, and the value price makes this watch a bit too desirable to pass up. Also, you'll love the little details that Magrette puts into this watch that make it so unique. Start with the dial of the new Moana Pacific to see the smooth retro looks. The name of the watch is applied in a cursive text right over the base model name which is the Regattare. The hour markers have all been thinned out a bit for the look on this dial. The hands have been reworked a bit more solid looking and thinner with a needle style seconds hand. The case is smooth and functional with a high quality polish on high-grade steel. This is one of the most handsome styled watch cases out there today.The Moana Pacific watch will be available as a limited edition of just 500, with the first 100 pieces being more special. Flip the watch over and notice a special wood inlay on the caseback of the watch. The inlay al

HELP! Looking for 3572.50...
Hello all,Disclaimer alert: please forgive any error on my part, I am completely new to watches.I am looking to purchase a first watch as a wedding present and had my eye on the Speedmaster. By nature I'm very curious and having read several forums, blogs and articles, I've been leaning towards the new Hesalite (311.30.42.30.01.005) because of its vintage look and feel (and history), but at the same time I love the back sapphire case on the Sapphire Sandwich one.And so my research has led me towards the 3572.50, which basically has both features I'm looking for. Can anyone help me, is it possible to find a new 3572.50? If not, what would be the reliable and suggested way of purchasing it second-hand? Any idea what they go for approximately?On another note, is it just the Omega website or are the 3570.50 and the newer version actually different, because the pictures on the website don't look the same at all....omegawatches/watches/...2-mm/35705000/https://.omegawatches/watches...1130423

Super jubilee discontinued. Why?
When Rolex released the new Datejust 36 this year at Baselworld much to my disgust they have decided on using a sporty oyster clasp on the jubilee bracelet just like the DJ 41 and new jubilee GMT Pepsi and are phasing out the beautiful super jubilee. Why oh why are they making dress watches with sports watch clasps on them it baffles me and makes them look worse IMO. In my mind a Datejust jubilee should have a beautiful continuous bracelet just like the presidential. So I've been wanting a Datejust 36 for many years now and because of Baselworld and those new TT DJ's with that new clasp I decided I needed to get myself a super jubilee before the SS ones are updated next year. So yesterday I went to my local AD in the UK and purchased a stainless steel and fluted bezel 116234. The salesperson told me this is the last one they have and they have now been discontinued already! (even though a replacement wasn't even announced this year) and Rolex won't let them order any more in.I would lo
