Did you see Steven Tyler on American Idol?
He has been wearing a leopard daytona. Couldn't tell if he had it on tonight though but he has been wearing one.

Regatta Watch Timers (An explanation)
The Hamilton Regatta watches are built for sailors participating in racing. Unlike a race car, sailboats or yachts don't have brakes and don't run on solid ground. So they can't move up to a starting line, all in a row and and "start their engines". Established before each race there are starting procedures. These procedures spell out how much time they have before their race starts...For example the Navy Regatta Alarm has built into it timers for three starting procedures, 10min, 7min and 5min..If you are in a 7 minute starting procedure race, you start your timer when they give you the signal. During this 7 minutes you are sailing around BEHIND the starting line with the other boats in your race. You make several dashes in the direction of the starting line without crossing it so you can get an idea of your speed. Having an idea of your speed you try to get in a position to make a run at the starting line as close to the end of 7 minutes as you can...The best you can do is hit the s

Sending watches from the USA to the UK
Hi, I've bought a watch from the USA and it's being sent to the UK (England to be exact). I've paid $32 postage and it'll be sent with USPS. I was reading some sites, and it said things about custom charges and things...?The watch itself cost $105 (¡ê77). I've read many thingsone thing says 99% of items pass through customs without a look at, other sites say a form is needed to be sent with the watch.Can anybody enlighten me on the subject? I don't want to end up paying more/losing the watch in customs.Thanks.

Waiting for Daytona-C get option on Patek 5711
A few months ago I was enjoying my friends watch collection, mostly Patek Philippe with a few Rolex thrown in for good measure. While admiring his Daytona-Cs (a white and black face) my eye caught his blue dial PP 5711/1A - what an amazing watch especially in real life. Now I understand the passion for this particular model - incredible dial, timeless design, cool crystal back, elegant simplicity and of course highest quality.Next morning, we are at the AD and I'm adding my name to the list for the 5711 even though it seems the waiting list can compete admirably with the Daytona which I'd been patiently waiting for. Oh well, you never know, perhaps we'll be debating new POTUS candidates before we see any action on these. Then surprise, a call from the AD this weekend with option to take a 5711 that just came in. What a beauty. My first PP. What election?

Rolex Two Tone late 70s Thunderbird
Would like to get some opinions. I recently have been given an offer to buy a two tone Rolex Thunderbird made during my birth year. No box, papers or bracelet. It has the 1570 movement, 14k gold unidirectional bezel and stainless steel 36mm case. It is in excellent condition including bezel and has been serviced recently. The dial is gold tone.The seller is asking $3,500. I never thought about a two tone until now. Being made in my birth year makes it extremely tempting. I have been shopping for a Rolex to be worn in casual and formal attire (sporty but also dressy). I really like the added bonus of the unidirectional bezel with date as it would be an extra function for a watch at this price point. Should I pull the trigger or keep shopping around? 36-39mm case sizes look perfect on my 7 inch wrist.Thanks for any opinions.
