Breitling Emergency II Watch Featured In Top Gear's Last Aired Challenge
Being both a full-on watch and?car nut, you can imagine my surprise when in season 22 of British motoring show Top Gear I saw an entire "challenge" featuring a Breitling?Emergency II watch. Sure,?it is not unusual for watch enthusiasts to be car nuts as well ¨C I have met countless watch nerds over the last few years who, after a bit of conversation,?showed their car lover side as well. Top Gear is a?motoring show that needs no introduction to any car fan in the world: viewed by around 350 million people every week in over 170 countries around the?globe, it features "three middle-aged men mucking about," driving in the latest and greatest sport cars, SUVs, luxury sedans, and, sometimes, in the worst machines the car industry has ever produced throughout its history.Given that vast audience in the hundreds of millions, Top Gear may seem the ideal vehicle (pun intended) for product placement. However ¨C other than the cars, of course ¨C product placements in the show have been few and far b

Inherited an Omega - but what is it?
Hello guys.So just did a Google search and found the forum, I'm now hoping someone out there can help me.I was recently given my Grandfathers watch by my Father and I'd like to find out more about it.It was basically handed to me in a brown box with no information regarding model etc. The only bit of information I was told is that it was bought in 1968.The watch and strap are both gold and as you can see the face says Seamaster. That's as far as my Sherlock Holmes skills go.I did go to the Omega shop here in Hamburg to get it valued however they do not do valuations and suggested I go to a pawn dealer. I've never been to a pawn dealer, yet imagine I wouldn't get a very accurate valuation from such a place.Any information would be much appreciated. I look forward to your replies.Over to you.

Anyone know this Gruen movement.
I know about the 335 and 335ss made in Cincinnati but this movement looks a little freakish. The 21 jewels has beem stamped over to make it 23. It says 23 jewels on the dial.The case is stamped Gruen 335.The only stranger thing I've seen is this Hamilton 987a modified with an added cap jewel.Joel

Vintage Speedmaster service: is this a dilemma?
I own mostly Rolex, thus my joining this forum, but I also love the Speedy and have two of them, one modern, one vintage. The vintage piece is a 145.012-67. I bought it with no known service history. It's in fairly good shape except the hour totalizer is not resetting to zero and running about 25 sec fast per day avg - faster when its worn, not quite as fast when face up off the wrist. Had it for a year now and thought I'd better think about getting it serviced.Upon contacting a recommended watchmaker / service center - now independent, but formerly omega authorized - I was told the following:1. pushers and crown must be replaced (standard)2. crystal must be replaced (standard to restore water resistance ¡­ gaskets too)3. If there is a lot of mildew or degrading tritium on the dials, the dial should be replaced. #3, the dial, appears to be a deal breaker doesn't it? But the service center says if flakes or dust from degrading tritium markers get into the movement, that is a problem.Wha
