Skagen's Flagship Swiss Movement Men's Watch Line For 2009
I was curious as to what Skagen considered to be their flagship watch, so I asked them. The Danish brand has seemingly always been around in the watch world. Brands tend to have iconic looks and technologies that are imbued into flagship products that communicate the brand. Skagen's entire watch product line has a few common themes. These include use of minimalist design, titanium as often as possible, thin case profiles, function forward attitudes, Swiss movements, and reasonable prices. For 2009, Skagen replied that the watch that communicates all these notions are the men's 585XLTMXB and 585XLTMXM watches. The difference between the two models is one is constructed of gray toned titanium, while the other uses a darker black toned titanium.Let's go back a step while I give you my take on Skagen watches. A lot of the time I wake up and want to wear a serious "show me the money" watch. That isn't about glitz, but rather about "I am going to go out and conquer the day!" Other days I wan

Vintage Hamilton Help Please
Hello,I am new to all of this and a have a watch that my grandfather owned. I was wondering if you all can help me with a value on this watch. It is a 1956 (I believe) 14k Hamilton Automatic K-202 with a serial number of L779428 and another number on the cover is 661. The stem is recessed and both the Hamilton and Automatic printing on the face curve with the dial. I hope this is enough information to get started.Thanks,Dave

Should i give up on blue??
Hello TRF and AP fans.Ive decided to add an AP RO 15400st blue dial. Made a deposit more than 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately my dealer has exhausted all his sources from HK and SG in search for the blue dial. Since its the more popular and a boutique exclusive among the 3 i knew from the start it would be a challenge to get my hands on this color. For the past few days since we still have no leads where to get one ive started to consider the silver dial. Since i dont have a silver/white dialed watch yet this can be a possible fallback /substitute. Although im 3rd on a list for the DaytonaC so another white incoming soon. My current watches are Black TagH Grand Carrera, Black SS Daytona and Submariner LVC.I still have till march 12 before giving up on the search and get back my deposit. Question is: Should i settle for the silver dial or keep waiting for the blue? Has anyone experienced a similar situation and had regrets or satisfaction with the switch.Thank you!Sent from my SM-N9208 using

Marcolino AD - Portugal
Good Morning guys,I been a long time lurker here and finally received a gift from my wife for a 7 year wedding anniversary - a brand new Datejust 41, with blue dial. Super excited and still drooling over it. I am a little concerned as it was a big purchased for her, for us and just wanted to check it with you guys on what you think. I live in NYC and when I last visited an AD store in brooklyn I was quoted $7350 (smooth bezel and oyster bracelet), they said I can get a minor discount of perphaps 5% - nothing crazy. So long story short, when we were in Porto (which is a lovely place in Portugal) we stumbled upon a jewelry/watch store - Marcolino and after trying the watch on again, i fell in love and one thing led to another after negotiating we agreed on a price, which was already less then in NY and with tax exemption there it became like 20-22% cheaper then it would of been back home. I am excited, but I am not an expert, obviously I checked the website to make sure they are authoriz
