SIHH 2013, You Control The Watch Coverage
In about a week I will be on the ground in Geneva covering the 2013 edition of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH). Read this post fully because the important stuff is at the end. This will be our 4th SIHH show, but our week in Geneva doesn't stop there. In addition to the SIHH we will be at the Geneva Time Exhibition (GTE), and meet with a number of other brands who will be presenting in the area. SIHH sounds hectic but in reality it is much more relaxed than the ten plus days you can spend in Basel at Baselworld madly meeting with as many brands as possible.Seeing that many watches can be overwhelming - even for us. And by us I mean that this year it will be more than just me (Ariel Adams) walking around with a bunch of photo equipment. watches-dealer as a team, continues to grow in cohesion. Nevertheless, I will still have all that equipment (which this year will be a pack including two DSLR cameras, multiple lenses, and a video camera). Sadly, they don't allow pac

My Thoughts On The TAG Heuer Connected Smartwatch, By Kevin Rose (VIDEO)
Today, TAG Heuer announced the TAG Heuer Connected smartwatch, which is powered by Intel hardware and Google's Wear OS. While it might not feature the latest and greatest in the increasingly crowded wearable-tech market, it might just be – due to a unique trade-in program – the smartwatch of choice for the diehard TAG Heuer fan. Watch the video above for all of my thoughts. 1 OF 26 The Specs - 46.2 mm in diameter- 12.8 mm thick- case, back, and lugs made of grade-2 titanium- black rubber strap, with additional straps available in red, blue, white, and orange- 1.5 in. transflective LTPS LCD display- 360 x 360, 24-bit display- 240 ppi, 200 nits- 1 GB main memory, 4 GB storage- Dual core processor, rate at 1.6 GHz (normal operation speed = 500 mHz)- 410 mAh battery; 25 hours of battery life- $1,500Unique features, which deviate from the default Google Wear OS:- 3 digital TAG Heuer Carrera dials (each with three color options)- "interactive counter

DIY para cord watchband...an odyssey part 1
So I got a tactical watch that I think will look good on a para cord bracelet. Here's the watch....Then I found the bracelets on line for $25-$35 and I thought that was outrageous! So I decided to do it myself. Picke up a kit and some extra cord from Michael'a to practice for about $15 and decided to practice by making bracelets for the family. Here are my results so far...It only took about 15 minutes to figure out how to get going and then about 15 minutes a bracelet. The challenges so far are doing a clean melt of the ends and getting the length right with the buckle. The yellow and black was for my wife but is. Going to my ex marine brother in law now :)I'll keep you posted when I get the band done. Has anyone else done this?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sea Dweller advice
Hi, I am looking for advice on purchasing a preowned seadweller. My budget would be $5500-5800 US. Is this reasonable to expect, and if so what year, serial number, and condition should I look for? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
