Richard Mille Caliber Extra Flat Automatic RM 033
Until now, the adjectives “round” and “thin” were not often found in close proximity to the name Richard Mille. The RM 033, launched at SIHH last week, changes that. Ultra-thin is clearly in, and Mille is not missing the boat. His caliber RMXP1 is a mere 2.6mm thick, and at 6.3mm deep, the RM 033 case is a wisp. Look inside for pricing, wallpaper, and more. The RMXP1 caliber is designed to be svelte from the ground up. To save precious millimeters, the automatic-winding micro rotor is off-center. To improve weight distribution and function, the rotor is solid platinum and winds bi-directionally.The caliber RMXP1, with 29 jewels and beating at 3Hz, has a free sprung balance with variable inertia. This type of balance provides increased reliability when subjected to shock and better chronometric results over time. The regulator index is eliminated and a more accurate and repeatable adjustment is possible thanks to 4 small adjustable weights located directly on the

How do we know he did it right?
How do we know that the watchmaker did it right?. That is taken apart the entire watch, cleaned each part perfectly, reasembled it, lubed and regulated it. I hear stories of watchmakers rising the entire works in a solvent, blowing it dry, ressembling it, lubing and regulating. How do we what he actually did. Answer. We don't know.Art KramerWW II bombardier

Easter Magic: Incoming!
After uttering the words ¡°nautilus aren¡¯t for me¡± many times, I suddenly developed an insatiable itch for wanting to own THE nautilus. Once a watch nut gets an idea in their head, as many of you know, there is only one way to scratch that itch: INCOMINGIMG_0168.jpgWhile for years I preferred the 15202 over the 5711 as I found the 15202 to be the ¡°original¡± Genta and loved the lack of a seconds hand, legendary caliber and the bracelet on it, my initial impressions of the 5711 1/A are very good. The watch is incredibly comfortable and the dial is really magical how it changes in the light: probably the only correct answer is to own both!

Return to Panerai?
I had a 312 for awhile and it lost its wrist time after getting into Rolex. I sold it and purchased a DSSD with the funds. I've been casually visiting this sub forum the last few weeks and starting to get that itch again. Over the weekend I was out shopping with my wife and visited a watchmaker/used dealer I've used in the past that was in the area. I tried on a preowned 233 w/ dot dial and a 270. I really really dig the look of the domed crystal. Now I see why so many covet the 233. Anyways the owner said if I was serious we can work something out on the 233. The last month or so I've been obsessing over an AP RO and thought about getting one for my 40th bday. Getting the 233 would derail that a bit, but looking at preowned or even BNIB from trusted sellers, it looks like AP RO can be had when ready (except the blue dialed non-jumbo ones).Well don't want this to be a PAM vs AP thread, as they are apples vs oranges. Looking at watch recon, 233 dot dial aren't as common, but
