Guy Builds A "Watch Room" In House, Shows It Off On Forum, Instantly Makes "Watch Roo
I think we've all dreamt of it, but few have made it happen. I'm talking about a room, in your home, where you can slip away from the rest of your family, and just totally immerse yourself in your passion. In other words, a room where you can just sit and play watches. Well, a man by the name of Chris, a Heuer and vintage chronograph collector of sorts, signed into OnTheDash last week and showed off not his great purchases of 2014 like everyone else. No, no. His triumph would be much greater. Chris was there to show off his very own dedicated watch room, built into the library of his house.Here are a few pictures of the room leading up to his secret lair, then what?you'll find inside, such as as old auction catalogs, cool old racing ephemera and, well, tons of cool old watches. Yes, we are all really, really jealous.Read the original post and see all the pictures here. 2 OF 5 3 OF 5

Poll - Choose The Best Three Watch Collection
If you've followed my threads recently... I will start by apologizing for the obsessiveness and indecisiveness I swear I'm getting close to making a decision.This is pretty simple. Choose the trio you think works best all around as a collection/rotation. Here are the options...A. Tudor Black Bay Black | Rolex 116610LV | Rolex 116680B. Tudor Black Bay Black | AP RO Offshore Diver 15710 | Rolex 116680C. Tudor Black Bay Black | Rolex 116610LV | AP RO Offshore Chronograph Elephant I am always happy to hear opinions and discussions regarding my poll, but as I previously conceded, I've nearly beaten this subject to death recently so I'm not insisting on you all taking the time to justify your positions. I would really like to just see some hard numbers.A.B.C.

Advice from 25860ST owners
Hi, it would be great to hear from any owners' experiences of the 25860ST regarding durability. This would be my first AP.I am right handed and also wear my watch on the right wrist so it gets some knocks. Whilst I am not so concerned with scratches as these become part of the watch's history, I would be happy to hear about the inner workings standing up to all round wear.As a bench mark for comps I rotate between sport watches from Rolex, IWC and Patek.Thank you in advance

Tried on a Speedmaster Pro tonight....
And I'm hooked. I loved it. Felt very solid and very high quality, and I hate to say it, but it felt much better than my Submariner. The movement was gorgeous. Without even asking I was offered a 25% on it and nearly every other watch there. I however can not find the exact reference # she wrote on the card on the internet. The reference # she gave me is 31130404230130. Had a matte black dial that was almost slightly brown with white hands. Tried on a cream dialed one with black subdials also and it didnt do anything for me. The offer was 25% off if paying with cash and 23% off if paying with credit or debit. Since I dont have that much cash laying around, I had her do an estimate for me using a credit card. They were selling it for $5500, after 23% off it came to $4235, add taxes and the grand total was $4785.55 cdn. Think its a good deal? They had an Alaska project for $5900, but I dont believe there was a discount due to it being a limited edition.I'm very tempted...Lo

PAM721 Officially Announced
I know there has been speculations about this piece but it was finally announced today that it will be released Dec. 6th for Design Miami. What do you guys think of this piece which is a homage to the 3646 Type D with anonymous dial?More Info - .paneraicentral/panera...-design-miami/Some back history on this piece from a historical point. Some say that Panerai shouldn't have released this model given that it was a piece that was made for Nazi divers.
