Ronin Rotomatic Hands-On
Ronin Watches ?appeared on the ?scene a year ago with their first model, the Ronin Pilot. Owner Phil started the brand after lusting after more expensive pilot watches. Finding them to be too pricey, he founded Ronin Watches with the motto "quality watches at prices that make sense." His goal was to make watches people wanted out of quality materials yet keep the cost down so that they were affordable. So far the brand has offered two models that fit into that mission statement.The Ronin Pilot?fit that philosophy very well: priced at $265 the watch had a hand-wind Asian movement, sapphire crystal, a well built case offered in 44m or 47mm, and good luminescence as well. Their follow-up model, also in the pilot’s watch style, was the Rotomatic. A smaller watch at 42mm with a simpler, cleaner design, the Rotomatic was limited to 60 pieces, each one hand inspected before delivery. Although now sold out, the Rotomatic is a solid enough piece to garner a further look.Ronin Rotomatic Ha

In the meantime show me some wristies :).Feel free to post your opinion on the 15300or as well!!! Thanks!Stijn

Less Formal PP for a younger guy
Hi PP forum,I have been looking a while at PPs. I've always loved the Calatrava, but I'm still in my mid/late 20s and the most formal I ever dress is chinos & a dress shirt, never a suit, so I think the model would not really suit me that well. I'm also quite big (used to do a lot of weight lifting when I was younger) so I need something which won't look dainty of my wrist/arm.I live a couple of hours from London where all the PP dealers are, so I need to have a few models lined up before I go there so I can make sure they have stock of everything I want to try.I currently own:- YG Rolex GMTIIC- Navy AP Royal Oak Offshore- Steel & WG DateJust IIAs such I am looking for something a bit more dressy & smart, a leather strap would be nice. But still something that is a little chunkier and will suit a casual dressing younger guy going out to a nice dinner, etc.It won't be my daily, any gold or platinum is fine, I can't go for anything over ��30k ($50k) brand new list price. Any o

Calatrava - Robust Enough For Everyday Use?
Hello,I'm looking to get back into a Patek after a ten year absence. I once had a beautiful 60's Calatrava that I loved but it had seen some humidity over the years and it needed some significant work which was beyond my budget so I regretfully sold it. I now find myself in a position to once again consider getting another Patek and I am trying to decide which model to pursue. I originally was thinking about an Aquanaut but I keep seeing Calatravas that I really like. I am wondering if a more modern Calatrava would be robust enough to wear daily. I do walk to work and I have a seven year old son so sweat and the odd knock are going to happen. I currently wear a 70's Rolex Datejust most days and as much as I like it I would expect that if I bought another Patek I would want to wear it almost everyday.Do you guys think that a Calatrava would be up to the job?
