Most Beautiful Watch Not At Basel?!
It took me a few years, but I finally found the hands-down, most awesome watch ever made. I'm sorry, the most awesome watch that has ever, and will ever be made. Nothing will beat it's pristine beauty and function. It is a masterpiece by all measures. The holy grail of design perfection, and complication - and it comes to you from your trusted friends at Life Alert. You know? That company waiting each moment of every day tohelp you upwhen you've fallen down.Hard to know if this watch actually made it (or will make it) to production. You can see the "emergency button" being the yellow-ish football shaped area on the lower part of the watch face. Now you'll never again need to carry your Life Alert pendant with you anymore - cause white plastic went out of a stylelike forever ago. Thing of this watch as a modern Breitling Emergency. This beauty does a few things well. In addition to telling the time, you have a fine faux gold in the middle of the bracelet links. Like the two tone luxury

Resetting the sweep hand??
My red-tipped sweep hand is stopping about 2 seconds before the 12:00 reset position. I know there is a way to manually 'hack' it to reset it. Does anyone remember what to do? Thanks.

My Wife Said What????
I have been Patek shopping trying on different models without my wife. Last Monday we had to take my son to Cincinnati so he could fly back to Florida. We live in Indy and with my dad's death, we were only able to get him a flight back on Allegiant with 4 hours notice. I found the address of a Patek dealer and wanted to try on different models while my wife was shopping at Ikea and other stores. She said she would go with me to my surprise. She has tolerated my watch hobby so far and I was concerned when she asked prices of various pieces. Roll ahead to last night after church, she said she wanted to get me my first Patek for Christmas! Enough said........

About threads of depreciation
I would like to clarify something about the issue of depreciation of watches. I am a private. There is always a great depreciation because the only way we have to sell a watch is to a gray dealer and of course the price we are going to get is much lower than normal. I tried many times to sell my watches that were of great reputation (a Rolex 16610 and a Panerai) and I could never do it because people do not know me and who was going to send me an important amount of money in advance? In all my notices I offered the option of doing the business face to face but it could only interest people who live in my city and that is more difficult.Now the same thing happens to me with a watch that I have and I do not bother to publish it.I clarify that I have always bought an official dealer ... I guess it is different from buying used and can get a good price. But luck depends on that.Regards.
