Jersey City, Hoboken & NYC 2008 GTG ... Very Long
Finally finished editing all my pictures.I hope you enjoy reading my little Adventure … I like travelling light and so initially I had a “Point & Shoot” camera.I was disappointed with the results and finally succumbed to a Nikon D60 dSLR, and this was it’s first outing.I am happy to say that, it exceeded all my expectations. My other contention was lugging my laptop about … using my Smartphone was OK but not good enough,so I did some research and decided that the Asus Eee PC mini-laptop would be an ideal companion on my travels.I was flying out of London Gatwick, and decide to purchase the said mini-laptop at Duty Free … ~ Here it is …~ My Carriage awaits …~ Take Off - New York here I come …~ Flying over my Homeland, Kent, “The Garden of England”I was flying Continental Airlines and had 3 seats to myself.They come with power points, so I happily charged up my "New Laptop" during the flight.I spent the rest of the fli

New dial for mid size two tone Date
Greetings1st post here. Love this site, I can't believe it took me so long to find it! Apologies in advance if this has been asked a million times. I want to change the current champagne dial to black on my 16 yr old mid-size DATE model two tone Rolex. I haven't a clue where to go to obtain a new genuine Rolex dial or what I can expect to pay to make the changeover.Could someone provide me with info on this please.Thanks! I look forward to many happy hours of forum browsing and hopefully contributions.BestRandy

Omega Planet Ocean w/ Brown Strap .. Does it exist?
Just like the title says guys.. I was in a local Tourneau looking at the Planet Oceans and asked the salesman (who I've talked to before and does know his fair share about watches) if they could order this model and he said he's never seen that watch before.. Now I know I have, but does this mean it may not be produced anymore?Thanks for the help!

TWO Very Special 1918 WWI US Army Elgin Trench Watches!
Hey guys!Last week I picked up TWO very special 1918 WWI Elgin Trench Watches.These two styles are the only ones that have been confirmed to have been bought by the United States Army.One case was made by Joseph Fahys and Company (OreSilver case) and the other case was made by the Illinois Watch Case Company (Nickel case).Both are semi-hermetic cases, meaning that they are threaded cases rather than friction.The Joseph Fahys case truly is an absolutely remarkable example as it still has just about ALL of the required black oxidized finish on the case. (16mm lugs)I have NEVER seen one that has the black finish so full in-tact before, almost unbelievable!Different companies had different ways of achieving the the required black finish, Joseph Fahys and the IWCCo did in fact oxidize the black finish while others used black paint.Nobody has tried to open this Fahys case the wrong way over the years by prying it open, the case threading is perfect.It still has the original factory crown as

Changed things up a bit
Picked up the bracelet for the Speedmaster 9300 to change it up a bit from the black leather strap. Both are such great options for this watch. And I have also come to the conclusion there isn't a better chrono out there and that's coming from a guy named Mr. Daytona too.
