Racing co-axial speedmaster surprise
Today, I went to the Omega boutique to look at a few speedmasters. The model I wanted to see up close was the Number Edition moonwatch with the manual wind. I have a very small wrist, under 6.5 inches, and thougth that the 39.7mm would be perfect. Tried it on but did not fall in love with the fit. The lugs extended off my wrist ever so slight. The sales clerk recommended the Racing Co-Axial Speedmaster. At first I said it was not necessary thinging it would be much to large. However I did try it on because the sales person said the lugs are slightly different and because I was there might as well try it on. To my surprise it fit much better than the Number Edition. Now I just need to make up my mind on color, but I am leaning toward the black with the black sub-dials. Would apprciate opionions from people that have this watch. Also what is the significance of the co-axial movement. Thank you in advance.

RARE Patek Philippe Officer's Campaign watch
Any opinions on this beauty?Value?

I got it!
Thank you to all who shared their insights over the weekend in my original thread Thoughts on the panerai 562 as a first panerai . I walked by the panerai boutique last Thursday and decided to take a look inside. When I ask the gentleman if he had any base models available, he showed me a panerai 562 �C a base pam in titanium with a chocolate dial and matching alligator strap. I strapped it on and it just felt right on my wrist. Still I thought I would sleep on it and at the same time ask the folks over at TRF about the watch, since I really had no idea about panerais and titanium watches. Many in the forum shared good things about the watch, and as the weekend passed, the excitement of strapping it on again only grew more intense. I came across another panerai �C a used but mint 112, an iconic model for sure. But it wasn't titanium, it wasn't a choco dial, and it didn't have a matching alligator strap. I kept thinking about getting the 112, but it just didn't stir any emotion.

Just got this strap in two days ago, so I figure I'd give y'all my initial impressions. It's pretty comfortable from the get go and I'm enjoying the light color, although I can see people not liking how golden it is. From what I've seen, it ages well, so I look forward to giving everyone an update when it gets a little patina.

Adding a Hacking feature to all movements?
I am a FREQUENT traveler.... flown on one airline, over 100,000 miles this year. I love my DJ41, (purchased earlier this year) but one thing I truly miss is the feature of moving just the hour hand when traveling through time zones. With my GMT, and then my EXII, it was so easy to simply click the hour hands back or forth to accomodate the time change (I might have the term wrong calling it hacking but you get what I mean). I know it doesn't seem like a big deal to pull out the stem to another click and manually move the minute hand ahead or behind two or three hours, but like a lot of things in life, you don't miss something until it's gone. I guess this is a question for Larry and the other smarter people on TRF then me (which pretty much covers everyone ) but is it such a big deal to offer that feature on all movements? I wouldn't think so. The 3235 is outstanding, but this is one function I would really like to see added. Rolex, are you listening?
