Factoid of the Day - 2/20/08
Jewel: A piece of ruby or (less commonly) sapphire or aquamarine, used as a substitute for steel where great resistance towear is needed ¡ª most usually as a bearing in which the pivot of a wheel rotates. The pallets of a lever escapement arealso jewelled. The technique of making jewels was patented by Pierre Debaufre and Nicolas Facio de Duillier in 1704and was applied sparingly in the 18th century, chiefly by English makers who thereby overtook the French as the world'sleaders in watchmaking. Jewels became much more common after 1820. In reckoning up the number of jewels in amovement it is usual to include the lever pallets and also the roller jewel; this last item accounts for the fact that thetotal is almost always an odd number, whereas in Swiss movements (with cylinder escapements) it is frequently even.

Hello folks,I have decided on the Cartier Santos 100 as my dress watch. Problem is in my state contains only two stores thta sell the watch and is too far to see it in person so often. I tried the Santos 100 XL but did not try on the "Large" modelPlease any wrist shots of the Santos 100 Large model or even a "medium model" would be HUGELY appreciated.ThanksF.

Anyone have pics of the new straps that come with the new box on the 3750?
real curious as to see them mounted.

Hopefully going to join the Patek club tomorrow..
So I have been saving up for my grail watch which was the AP 26300 Panda dial. I recently sold my AP moonphase to a member to help fund my grail and while saving I saw a nice 5165 fo about the same price so that threw me a curveball. I really like the aquanaut but like the SS bracelet and the 5165 did not have that option so I wrote it off. I love the 5167 but did not have the will power to save for a couple more months so I was about to get the 26300 when I got a PM from a member asking me if I want to buy his 5167.. I declined becuase I did not have all the money saved yet so he offered to take most of it now and the rest in a couple months when I got it. I offered him a watch as collateral but he declined saying just pay me when I get the rest... I must say WOW this forum is the greatest!! People on this forum are the most generous people I ever met!! This is not the fist time , I had someone send me a 1.25 super jubalee link for my datejust and let me send him the money after
