Marvin Malton 160 Cushion Limited Edition "Toujours Plus" Watch For CoolHunting
Apparently CoolHuntingwatches-dealer is on a "limited edition kick," and will offer a few such items. One of them is going to be this highly limited Marvin Malton 160 Cushion "Toujours Plus" watch that will only have 8 pieces. The watches will be available for sale (via CoolHunting I believe), but one of them will be auctioned off to benefit the New York City Animal Rescue (animalhavenshelter.org).Technically the watch is identical to the current Marvin Malton 160 Cushion three-hand automatic. The difference is in the colors as well as the dial and some text on the watch. The 42mm wide steel case is PVD black with a black and green textured dial. "Toujours Plus" is the French translation of CoolHunting's motto "always more." I wonder if aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer needs a motto?Not sure who footed the bill for this project.

Grinding noise when I wind my SM300
I just purchased a 1969 SM300 that was supposedly recently serviced. I notice friction when winding the watch and hear a light scrapping sound while winding. I have more modern Omegas and never noticed this issue. None of my automatic vintage watches have the same drag effect when winding them.I would appreciate your thoughts...James

Vintage Gondolo Purchase
Recently purchased a 18K gold vintage Patek Gondolo watch. The case size is about 25mm by 44mm. Believe the dial and movement are 100% original. Seemed like an original and very good quality watch, and I have always liked this style watch, so I pulled the trigger. I will be obtaining the archive papers from Patek, but I believe the watch is from 1926. I just have always found the flamboyant Patek's from the 1920's to be very interesting watches. Plus this style watch is large enough to still be stylish with the trend of larger watches. As an added bonus, the watch keeps excellent time.

Aquanaut or Nautilus???
If you had to choose only one, would it be a Aquanaut or Nautilus?
