Marcello C. Classic Duochronograph Watch Vs. IWC Portuguese Chrono-Automatic Watch
Two great watches, two similar designs, and yet two vast different prices. Sizing up what over $10,000 extra will get you. The bilateral chronograph is a beautiful thing. Two registers placed along a vertical radius is classically appealing and high legible. In existence for over 60 years, this style has solidified itself as a true classic.The most notable watch to epitomize this style, at least in a modern sense is the IWC Portuguese Chrono-Automatic. A venerable monolith of classic proportions and design, it is pure legibility at its finest. The frills on the IWC are in the construction and the materials used. You can opt for a gold case, and the IWC movements are world class, as IWC has been one of the gold standards of pilot's watches for many decades. IWC backs up its watches with a reputation for refinement and reliability, but you certainly pay a premium for it. Once you settle on a watch design you like, there are often many options when it comes to satisfying your new taste.Ma

Any ROO Panda Lume Shots?

Buying 15202 from AP Boutique- Is it worth it?
Hello everyone,Long time lurker and have learned immensely from all of you. I have decided to buy the 15202 blue dial in stainless steel and here is the dilemma. I can get it from the AP boutique for retail with 5 yrs warranty and possibly some knick knacks thrown in, likely nothing of value or buy one from one of our trusted sellers for about $1700 less. I will not be paying sales tax either way. I know I can get an extra yr of warranty if I buy from an AD but have to send it in for a ?check up, but is the extra 2 yrs worth the extra money?Thanks in advance and excited about my first AP!!

Broad Arrow
Can someone explain where the Broad Arrows fit in the Omega collection? I follow Omega but only own a Speedy Pro. I don't quite understand what the BA's were originally and in more current editions.I've got the same question about the Schumachers, too. Are they using the same movement (the original models) as the Speedy auto's or is there a difference? Thanks.

Concerned about my new Omega
Hey all. I've got a new Seamaster Aqua Terra GMT Chronograph with white dial which I purchased online from a reputable German seller and received the watch on FridayI was admiring the movement through the exhibition case back when I noticed one inscription read Thirty-six (36) jewels.That got me a little freaked as all the specs I've come across online state that the 3603 has 37 jewels. The Omega website itself does not actually state how many jewels the movement has. So what I am asking is if other owners of this watch or owners of other Omegas with the 3603 movement can confirm that their watch also says 36 jewels.If you know anything about this movement, please also chime in.Much appreciated.
