Auction Watch: Christie's Harry Winston Opus Collection Results
On May 30th, 2012 Christie's auction house in Hong Kong was host to the latest installment in their "Important Watches" auction series (which included a ton of watches). While this auction featured much of the normal fare from Panerai and Rolex, the main call for interest was an unparallelled representation of the Harry Winston Opus line. We have written of the Opus line in the past, but for those not in the know Opus is essentially a distinct line of Harry Winston timepieces which have been created in a collaborative partnership between Harry Winston and many of modern Horology's most talented independent watch makers. The concept behind the Opus collection comes from the powerhouse mind of Max Busser who ran Harry Winston's watch division before founding MB&F in 2004/2005.

Look What Came Today !
Yea I know I was looking for a much larger watch, but i saw this and loved it. I love the Tag F1 series and after trying it on I thought about getting one, so while searching F1 series online I came across this watch and decided to get this for an everyday watch and use the rest of my budgeted money for the Hamilton I really wanted !Anyhow.. here it is !

Mechanical clock not keeping time.
Hey guys, Since joining this forum, I've decided to rewind a cheap mechanical clock that I bought once when I went off on a holiday. In the past, this clock kept pretty decent time. But in recent months, the clock has been losing time every single day - even on a full spring. Short of taking it to a clock/watchmaker, what can I do to get the clock to keep time? I thought a few generous squirts of lubrication-oil would be sufficient to do the job. Is this enough? Or must I do more? Also, what kind of oil should I use? I think dad has a can of metal lubricant-oil SOMEWHERE around the house, but short of that, could I just use (shock-and-horror) olive-oil? Yours, Shangas.-EDIT: I'm well aware that this is a WATCH forum, but I saw it as being a waste of time to join a clock forum just to ask one tiny little question since I could probably ask it here.

Vintage repair recommendations...
Would appreciate recommendations/experience with an Omega vintage specialist in the US. Thanks much!

5131P coming in a few days??
Well I was dinner last night with some serious collectors after the Sothebys preview and I have it on good authority the 5131P is on the way with N Pole map(as I suggested to Geneva last year) and also it will come with a bracelet so it will be heavy and most likely retail around 140-150K??? For those who love snow so much this could be the one for them also.. How accurate this info and the other stuff I heard is anyone's guess but if true some interesting things on the way in Basel and later in the year.. Time will tell so dont shoot the messenger.Here is a shot of all our pieces together..
