Breitling Windrider Chronomat Evolution B13048 42.5mm Black Dial Gold Stainless Steel Strap Watch

Review Of A Sampling Of Options From Da Luca Straps
When it comes to watches, many folks probably do not give much thought to the strap, other than making sure they like one that the watch comes with. For those of us who have fallen down the rabbit hole of watch appreciation and collection, then things like watch straps get more attention. As we have said here time and again, changing out the strap of a watch can really change its character, especially if you go with something that is particularly colorful. With that in mind, today, we will cover three different watch straps we had in from Da Luca Straps.When it comes to watch straps, you have all manners of companies vying for your attention. You can get downright affordable ones that allow you to pick up a variety, or you can go the fully custom route, made out of some very high-end leathers. The ones we have today from Da Luca Straps try to strike a good balance between the price, materials, and quality offered.When I went through their catalog to see what made sense for review, I ke

Here's my Orient Mach 7 100M Auto! CET0B001W
I was able to find one more of these rare beauties out in the wild, so I pulled the trigger, and now its mine! The Orient Mach 7 (in silver dial)! I haven't been to the forum in a while...well except to peek in and such. I'd like to spend more time in here again, and with that said, I wanted to share with you my joy over this gorgeous Orient Mach 7 100M Auto CET0B001W, part of Orient's great and hugely popular "Multi-Eyes" Series. The watch is awesome in every respect, and I actually found this one in a tiny little jewelry shop on the streets of NYC. And not too surprisingly, it was the only Orient in the shop. :) The dial is so beautifully silver! The red accents really stand out! And one of my favorite things about the watch is the massive, 24mm, non-tapering, brushed & high-polished, solid end-link bracelet!

Is there any reasoning to the PP model numbers?
Hello. I love to drool over all of your watches, but alas do not have one of my own yet. So, since I'm getting acquainted with the PP brand, can anyone shed some light on the model numbering scheme?Most of your watches have numbers that begin with 5s, 2s, and 3s. Is there any significance to the numbering that can help me understand what features, materials, and complications a given model has based on the number?Thanks in advance!

Omega boutique store
I checked out the Omega botique store, they have a great selection of all things Omega, and Omega only. The service was also very good. The price point on most Omegas seems like a steal compared to Rolex. Two watches stood out for me today, a new blackfaced moonwatch with a date, day and month wheel, and this second watch for 3,500 with the best looking dial I've seen in some time... Very tempting if you ask me...What do you think...?

Incoming!! All Credit to Tom!
Possibly the last white dial 5980 in captivity, just got it in this morning (thankfully ahead of the Harvey, was worried it might be stuck at the post office for a week here in Houston!). First Patek and absolutely love it! Thanks to Tom (tomalf123) who sourced it, never thought I'd find one new from an AD but shouldn't have underestimated the forums! I know the white dial isn't to everyone's taste but I love it, clean and easy to read and the matching subdial color is perfect to my eye. As I understand it, the vertical clutch should alleviate the wear issues associated with keeping the chrono engaged, anyone have any issues with that on this model at all? I just like a running seconds hand.On to pics, still need a resize but probably going to wait out the storm, still in shock that I am an official Patek owner, thanks to all for the help and enabling
