Tissot Seastar 1000 Automatic Chronograph Watch
It does not surprise me that this year we get a new Seastar watch from Tissot, but this particular neat design wasn't expected. There is something retro about it - likely the thinner rotating diver's bezel - but it has a nice modern looking dial. Detail is pleasant and the functionality seems sound for this circa $1000 timepiece collection.The dial will come in a few colors. Seen here are just two of them being black dial with white and blue accents, as well as the black and orange dial. Having two different tones of blue is a benefit to the black and blue one (call it bruised, I dare you). Features such as a small but present and sloped flange ring as well as slightly depressed subsidiary dials give the dial a higher end look. The dial is also pretty easy to read thanks for the slick layout. The hands and hour markers are coated with SuperLumiNova.One this I don't get is the Seastar "1000" name. The case is water resistant to 300 meters not 1000. At least when you have a numerical val

Negatives to ap (15300)?
Hi everyone. I have been a rolex guy for the past five years or so but have been thinking about making a move to ap and pp. I'm thinking ap first then make my way to a pp complication. I have done a lot of reading on the ro 15300 and I have read mostly nothing but good things. What I would like from all of you is to hear the negatives of ap and specifically the 15300. I know some have visited the service center sooner than owners would like, anything else? I just want to be aware of everything before I make the plunge! Thanks to all

Seamaster Professional Bezel Insert
Does anyone know if you can purchase an Omega bezel insert for a Seamaster Professional, as you can with a Rolex, or do you have to purchase the complete bezel?Thanks,Brian

In defense of the Patek E23 (on ref. 3747)
I own the 3747 and love it. Yes, it's a Quartz and not mechanical. Frankly, I don't care. The watch itself is gorgeous (I'm getting it serviced by Patek now and have ordered a navy blue stitched alligator strap which I'll post once I have the watch back). I also love the date function, which unfortunately is missing on the new Golden Ellipse models. Couple of reasons why I purchased this watch: A. Did I say it's gorgeous? I know it's more expensive than other Quartz watches, but the quality and aesthetics of this piece are, quite frankly, unmatched. B. I don't have to wind it - ever.C. It tells me the perfect time - every day.D. The service costs are considerably more cheaper.E. I can put it away and wear my Audemars automatic watch for weeks and know that when I pick up the Patek, it will be running (assuming of course the battery doesn't need to be replaced ;))If Patek ever comes out with a GE with a date function in an automatic movement, I could consider upgrading. Until then, this

The 111 Arrived Today!
It is a truly gorgeous watch in its simplicity but I defiantly need a more comfortable strap than the OEM one any suggestions?
