Debaufre Nav-B Limited Edition (review)
I received this earlier this week and just had to write this review. Love this one! Hope you enjoy.IntroductionDuring World War II a handful of watch manufactures - IWC, Laco, Stowa, A. Lange & S?hne & Wempe - designed and built watches specifically for the German Luftwaffe. Called Beobachtungs-Uhren (more commonly as B-Urh or translated as observers watch), these watches were all designed with some common traits: large in size - not for fashion, like today's watches, but for practicality and legibility - with sizes up to 55mm, large crowns so they could be set and used with gloves, they were fitted with hand wind pocket watch movements with indirect center seconds hand and stop seconds (hacking seconds hand), clean and legible dials with good luminescence, and were often attached to long straps to be worn over flight jackets. Although only a limited number of these watches were produced, the style remains popular with watch enthusiasts and a number of brands have made homages

Why do Roman numeral dials use IIII instead of IV?
I think it's common knowledge that the Roman numeral for 4 is IV, but watches always seem to use IIII for 4. They don't use VIIII for 9, they use IX. It seems to be the only number for which they use something other than the common Roman numeral.Is there a reason? It seems traditional on clocks and watches, but I can't think of any other application where IIII is used instead of IV. It's something I've always wondered about, and has actually prevented me from buying a watch with Roman numerals.Personally, I was always taught that 1 through 12 would be:I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XII.I have heard that IIII is an acceptable substitute for IV, but only from people selling watches...

Travel with Your Watches
Hey all I will be traveling on business this week and for the first time I want to bring more than the one watch on my wrist. Now the time pieces I will take are not high dollar but I certainly do not want to lose them to baggage handlers. What are some tips from frequent travelers on the forum? I am thinking of carrying them in my computer bag that I carry on, is this a good idea or should I just put them in my checked luggage? Thanks for any responses.

Audemars Piguet 2014 Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph
Guys, just found out that AP has released this beauty! Guess what, the unique forged carbon is still alive, and the all new in-house automatic tourbillon chronograph movement is simply STUNNING! Just look at the S-shaped coupling yoke! I've attached two images from Purists for all you watch lovers to admire. (I had copied the images from Purists and I would like to give credits to them!) What's your thoughts, guys? I must be the first to admit that I love it A LOT!
