Zenith Class Lady Moonphase Watch For 2009
Zenith Class Lady Moonphase in Stainless Steel with White DialAs you may know, Zenith is a brand that I am very fond of. They take risks and have the history to back these risks up. While the trend of women wearing men's watches has been growing, Zenith was one of the first to embrace and encourage this. And, always to be one step ahead, Zenith has also created many designs with a more masculine yet edgy feel for women. Instead of just making models smaller for a woman's wrist, the designs are tailored more to the taste of a truly modern woman.Such as the new Class Lady Moonphase introduced at this year's Baselworld show, unfortunately Thierry Nataf's last gig. I am sad to see Thierry leave, as I have always admired and respected his vision. But, I am also very excited to see the direction that this brands goes moving forward.For now, Thierry and the team from Le Locle have given us the Class Lady Moonphase as one last parting gift. And what a gift it is.The Class Collection appe

Changing from Leather to Bracelet in Summer...
I've just changed my Speedmasters leather strap back its its bracelet because its now getting very very hot here in Western Australia. I dont want my $200 strap getting damaged by sweat as the sun does come out to play hot over here at this time of year.Just wondering, does anyone else do something similar?PS, I don't really sweat much as 85% of my day is sitting behind an desk in an air-conditioned government office, but I felt like a change anyways and on weekends I do go outdoors.

Paul Breguette 23 Jewel Automatic
Hi, I am new to watch collecting and have recently acquired a Paul Breguette. The face of the watch is Gold toned with a flip-flop type finish where each quarter looks different depending on the way you look at it and the face is marked "Paul Breguette Automatic, 23 Jewels." The movement is signed "Paul Breguette Watch Co. Inc. Swiss six 6 Jewels in Gyro Unit." Could someone please shed some light to me on this watch. Is it valuable, or just a nice watch I like the feel and look of the watch but I am very curious about it because after searching for hours I can not find an exact match to it or information on any 23 jewel Paul Breguette for that matter, thanks in advance.

Royal Oak 15400ST with Rubber Strap Installed!
Hi All, This is a follow up to my thread Rubber strap conversion kit for RO 15400.rolexforums/showthread.php?t=509520I snapped pics throughout the entire install process. It's a little tricky and a little bit more time consuming than changing out a Rolex or Patek with spring bars, but once the brackets are installed on the rubber, it's only a pair of screws for each strap. Not bad at all.So if you don't mind, i'll post pics from start to finish and end off with the end product. Kind of like a strip tease lol. Enjoy!So the conversion kit consists of a few screws, a pair of brackets for each strap, and the beautiful AP deployment.pic1.jpgI started with installing the deployment on the strap.pic2.jpgOne screw to remove the bar to attach the deployment.pic3.jpgLook at that AP!pic4.jpgRemove the braceletpic5.jpgThere's also a bar in between the lugs. I used the flat screw driver head to push it out.pic6.jpgAnd the bracelet is off.picXXX.jpgNow to the straps. Insert the brackets into t

512 or 531
What do you think? These are two very different watches, in very different sizes, with very different complications. I like them both on their own merits, but I am concerned the 531 might be too big (but then again, that's what you expect from Panerai). It's feeling like a pretty tough choice for me right now. I want something to compliment my BLNR.
