Bedat & Co. Number 8 Watches For 2010
Hello pretty lady (watch). How are you doing? This is a good-looking watch, and I am not afraid to admit it. I wouldn't wear it maybe, but I'd check out the woman who was. An alternative to Cartier in style and refinement (but not that long history and multitude of celebrity lovers) Bedat & Co. is a sexy little number you should be saving up for to get her - if you really care that is. Ladies, if you are reading this. Have no qualms about setting your heart on one of these. The No. 8 watch comes in two sizes (about 26.5mm wide for the 827 model - with a Swiss quartz movement, and 36.5mm wide in the 828 that has a Swiss automatic movement in it). The No. 8 also has a double row of diamonds on the bezel, a nicely textured dial with unique blued-steel hands, a smooth 5-link bracelet. Oh, how I just love to touch its soft curves...Read my article on the Bedat & Co. No. 8 watch over at Haute Living here.

Not quite American, but you all seem to appreciate vintage the most
I hope I'm not overstepping myself here, I think the AWF appreciates vintage the most (as a group) and I wanted to share this one here. I believe it is later and Swiss but what the hay.I bought it in poor condition specifically because I've never seen a "fabric" dial before. Hopefully someone can tell me more about it!

Ovals
By my count there are 3 Ovals on eBay currently and they all started fairly recently. In my short time of scouring eBay religiously I have never seen one before. Thoughts on these? I'm drooling. Cheers!

C5 Impressions over 2 weeks
Over the last couple weeks I've been pleasantly surprised with the Christopher Ward Malvern C5. First impression was that it's a little thick and heavy, but it's decently balanced on the wrist. It's also pretty comfortable, despite that I'm not a big fan of bracelets. Here are some of the positives and negatives:There are gaps in the bracelet as shown in the photo below. This is most likely because I have a smaller wrist and it would lay more evenly around a larger wrist, but the case is only 38 mm so I don't know if it would appeal to somebody larger. It's not really that bad but you can see it is noticeable between the end and first links:There is also no A/R coating that I can see, but that's not a big issue either. A/R makes black dials look bluish. This is still a very clean and legible dial. The lume in the numbers could be better, but the hands are bright enough.BTW, I like having the 3 on the dial instead of it being replaced by the date window. The clasp doesn't have

Incoming - 5712/1A
Got the call from the AD today that my 5712 is in. They are shipping it to me as we speak. I am beyond excited. I got a 5711 in September from the same AD, which was very much a fluke, but have always had the 5712 on my mind since getting the 5711. Will post a pic when it arrives.All of the pictures posted on this site have made me very confident the 5712 is the one for me.
