The Nivrel Shark Sea Tourbillon Is A Rare Tourbillon In A Sea Of Glamour
We know that tourbillon watches are expensive. The complex little movements are at a premium based on the difficultly of manufacture and the prestige of owning one. The bar has been set pretty high with all variations of multi axis tourbillons and flying tourbillons that give a great view of the action. What ever happened to just the basic tourbillon? Because more tourbillon watches go for $50k and up, the proprietors of such luxuries feel the need to spruce them up with lots of gilding and fancy appointments to justify the prices. That is typically the case with most tourbillon watches that feel more a like novelty than like something worth wearing on a daily basis. But it doesn't need to be that way.The Nivrel "Sea" series has always been a diver's watch line that I have admired. I know of Nivrel's reputation for high quality construction and meticulous attention to detail (what else would you expect from a serious German watch maker?), and now I know that they have gently entered in

My First
On Friday I picked up my first Hamilton, a Khaki Navy Frogman Automatic H77415133. I absolutely adore it. I spent a long time deliberating on what kind of watch to get as this is my first automatic/substantial watch purchase. I really could not be any happier. I toyed around with the idea of getting a Panerai, but I just couldn't take the plunge financially. I then considered a vintage Omega. And then I came across an image of the Frogman Automatic and fell in love. The more I read about it the more I was convinced it was the right watch. Fortunately, a local store had one in stock and once I saw it in person it was done. It has everything I was looking for and then some. Everytime I look at my wrist it brings me joy. And the price was right too so I have absolutely zero buyer's remorse. I really feel like I got way more than my money's worth. My thanks to the posters on this forum as your threads led me in the right direction.

Vostok Neptune SE (Special Edition) On it's way
I was one of the very lucky people who managed to get one of these new Vostok Neptune SE (Special Edition) during the 5-8 minuets they were available for sale on meranom :-) I think they are very well designed and I can't wait to get mine :-) They come in 3 colors, and i went for a black one, but if they ever make some more, i might get a green one too ;-)In my opinion, these are awesome watches of the money.Best wishes, Peter

Catching up.
I understand that when one acquires a watch you should not talk about it without pictures. I have acquired a few since August. Here they are, please excuse my lack of expert photography.Boschett HarpoonCitizen 2100.
