IWC Portuguese Hand-Wound Eight Days Watch: Upgrade In Simplicity
IWC Schaffhausen just recently released their third new model in the Portuguese lineup for the year, a line that looks to combine the love of travel and adventure with classic, elegant style. The latest model leaves no guesswork as to two of the major features - it's called the Hand-Wound Eight Days.The star of that model name would be the movement, of course. In this case, it's the 59215 calibre, which is a higher-beat movement (28,800 BPH). More intriguing (at least to me) is that 8 day (192 hour) power reserve. Bigger power reserves on automatics are nice, but when it comes to manually-wound pieces, it's something that makes life that much easier. With this model, IWC has created a watch you really only need to worry about winding once per week - though, if you're like me, small bits of winding end up occurring throughout the day.The manual movement also allows for a thinner profile, with the 43mm case coming in at a fairly svelte 12mm.

Old Dynamic questions
Just bought this little beauty off EBay. Had a few questions after doing a bit of research. I posted it on the Omega forum but no one has replied. I believe it to be genuine but have not seen another with the white second hand. All the others have blue second hands. Also my bracelet links are rolled sandwich links and all the others I have seen are solid. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Bought and flipped in two hours...
I picked this up Saturday at around 11:00 AM Saturday, had it sold during my lunch the same day using my iPhone- another great find, with my fastest flip yet...Further proof that I cannot pass up a flip opportunity, no matter how nice the watch....
