Newbie Vintage Omega Seamaster Questions
Hi there,I'm looking at buying myself a vintage Seamaster as a wear everyday watch, the ones I really like the look of are the ones from the 50s/60s, the more simple ones with no date on.I read all the Vintage Seamaster posts on here last night (took me a few hours! - quite fascinating, and made me even more interested in getting one!!) to get a bit more information - I've got to say some of the knowledge people have on here with Omegas is phenomenal - & hopefull you'll be able to help steer me in the right direction in choice of watch.I've got a couple of questions;1. Would there much difference between a 50s seamaster compared to a 60s seamaster in say terms of reliablity etc.?2. Would you go for a manaul or automatic movement?3. Which is the best calibre to go for?I looked at 3 watches in a Vintage Omega shop in London the other day, all look fairly similar and close to what I'm looking for, and i'm thinking about buying one of these threeThey were a SM Deville 1967, calibre 601

Trade Up Two For One?
Lately I've subscribed to the one dress watch/one play watch/whatever else matters not theory. I have a Calatrava and an Aquanaut, and whatever else is my Cartier Roadster 40th birthday gift.I've been contemplating adding a Rolex Sub or DJ2. I love Rolex, have none at the moment, and really miss having one. But the reality is, with the Aquanaut on the winder, I can't justify two play watches (just the phase I'm going through). Yes, I know some love the variety and wear them in rotation, but that's not my thing right now.To further complicate matters (my first world problem), the Aquanaut does not have me over the moon like I expected. My feelings range from this is it! to this is it? I'm usually happy with it and think I'll keep it...But then I begin to think...(drum roll)Would It be best to trade the Calatrava and Aquanaut for a complication (annual calendar)?I would then have one dressy Patek AC and add a Rolex (depending on how much I had left over) as a play watch.Of course the oth

Lady¡¯s Datejust 6917 crown winding question.
Hello, I have searched the internet and this forum for the answer to my question, no concrete success as of yet.A couple of years ago I bought my wife a used Lady Datejust 6917. Using information found on this amazing site, I have made the following assumptions. The Bracelet has an F identification pointing in the direction of the watch being a 1981 vintage thus a 2035 movement.I recently bought her an Apple Watch for Christmas and she is now wearing it so I wound her Datejust up and put it on my watchwinder. When I was manually winding it, the crown seemed very tight as in hard to move relative to all my other watches and there was a vibration that felt like a mass moving inside the movement. My guess is the flywheel was spinning as I was winding the watch. My Rolex Explorer II does not have this type of motion when I wind it.This made me fear that I had bought a fake. Can anyone with knowledge of the 2035 movement confirm or deny that the flywheel or any other moderate mass inside t
