Baselworld 2015: Breguet Tradition Automatique Seconde R¨¦trograde 7097
Among Breguet’s new releases at Baselworld 2015 is the Tradition Automatique Seconde R¨¦trograde 7097, which makes use of the open design of the Tradition collection and includes a new retrograde seconds hand.In accordance with its name, the Tradition collection calls upon the heritage of the brand’s namesake, Abraham-Louis Breguet, the inventor of the tourbillon and the forefather of modern watchmaking. The first Tradition models were introduced in 2005. The key characteristic of the collection is that the workings of the mechanism are visible above the baseplate, without a full dial to obstruct the wearer’s view.The 7097 has a symmetrical layout, making it easy not only to read the time but also to observe the watch’s workings.

Above the balance wheel, one can see the pare-chute device, an anti-shock invention designed by Breguet himself.? The m

I presumed that it was 'broken' somehow, but not sure how since it's never been subjected to any abuse.Now, I've read dozens of pages about winding Omega watches. Most seem to suggest that it should take about 30 to 40 turns. I've done at least this amount and the problem continues. I was thinking that maybe I've overwound it to the point where I might have damaged something inside, but again many pages seem to suggest that this is almost impossible on a modern Speedmaster.When I do turn the crown it seems to turn relatively easily there is s

Omega Speedmaster Professional Accuracy
I have owned this watch for about a month and it is 14 seconds slow. I originally set it to the atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado within a second or two using the unofficial hacking feature of the watch. I was wondering if this is good in terms of accuracy for this watch? By the way, I bought it used from Swisswatchexpo and they said it had been serviced and calibrated. It is an older watch using the 861 movement too. In another post I have pictures. Thanks!

Seiko TiCN or PVD durability?
I am wondering if given a choice between SS and TiCN PVD on a Seiko watch, would you be concerned about the TiCN's durability? I am beguiled by the cool Seiko Pilots that look like Sinn fliegers.:D
