Louis Moinet Jules Verne Instrument 1 & 2 Watches With Moon Rocks
Would these watches make Jules Verne proud? Possibly. The unique chronograph watches from recent luxury watch maker Louis Moinet proves that the steampunk genre is alive and well. How do I know? Probably because these watches epitomize the ideal and I love it. Influenced by Jules Verne's classic 1865 novel "From the Earth to the Moon" (plot: big gun shoots American and French man to the Moon), the watch even houses an actual piece of rock from the moon (found on Earth). There are two models of the Jules Verne watch. First is the Instrument 1 "From The Earth To The Moon" watch, and second is the Instrument 2 "Around The Moon" watch. The different between the two is that the Instrument 1 has a chronograch with a second timezone, and the Instrument 2 has a rattrapane chronograph (split timer).The watches feature two "firsts."?? Most obvious, is the unique chronograph pusher system that uses fold out levers to operate the chronograph. This helps prevent starting and stopping it accidentall

Maybe the Root Beer was the Coke that never was
I know there has been other members including myself that at first glance thought that the new Root Beer Bezel looked like a Coke. What if just maybe this was Rolex's best attempt at making a Coke bezel or what if the red/black combo in ceramic is not possible? Traditionally the Root Beer was been a Gold and Brown bezel or solid brown bezel. We know how difficult it is with developing colors on the monoblock single piece ceramic bezel. For instance, the best Rolex could develop the Pepsi was the cranberry/grape color. I have also read that only 1 out of 10 Pepsi bezels are used for it's watches since the process is so difficult. So maybe the root beer bezel was Rolex best attempt at the Red/Black combination but salvaged the bezel by turning it into the root beer.

79220R Bezel Change
Hi,I got the Tudor 79220R and have sourced a Black Bezel insert. Are these easy to swap? It would be handy to know before I pull the trigger. Thank you in advance.
