My First Grail Watch: Stephen Forsey Of Greubel Forsey
Welcome back to an original watches-dealer feature, "My First Grail Watch." In this series, we ask prominent people in the watch industry about the first timepiece that they lusted after. Today, we're speaking with Stephen Forsey, co-founder of independent brand Greubel Forsey.watches-dealer (ABTW): Who are you, and what is your relationship to the watch industry?Stephen Forsey: Born in St. Albans, England, I inherited my passion for the intricacies of mechanics from my father. From 1987, I specialized in antique watch restoration, which led to a position as head of Asprey¡¯s prestigious watch restoration department, and then furthered my horological education at WOSTEP in Switzerland.In 1992, I joined Robert Greubel¡¯s team at Renaud & Papi, where I worked on the most complicated mechanical movements. ?Then, in 1999, I chose to become independent.

LLD No Date arrived!
In large part from some help from some members on this forum, I decided to get the Longines Legend Diver No-Date.

I have 7 inch wrist and the size seems just right to me. I want to thank everyone for the advice. This is the first "nice" watch in my collection and I hope to continue to build it over the years.

Where to go in KC to have a mechanical watch serviced
Sorry if this is in the wrong section (or if I skipped any newbie rituals that should have happened before my first post).I'm relatively new to collecting watches, but I've already managed to gather a few from the teens through the fifties. Some are in great shape...some could use a little TLC.Eventually I might get to the point of doing my own cleaning/servicing (already have a little bag of junkers set aside for practice!), but right now it would be nice to find someone halfway local to service a few of them for me.The problem: I have no idea where to go!If anyone has experience with someone in/around Kansas City that does quality work on older watches, I'd appreciate your input.

Battle of the pandas or Diver?
Wondering if you guys can help me decide my first AP since I'm new to the brand. If you guys could do it all over again, what would be your first AP between these three?-wrist is ~6.5-I currently have JLC Navy Seals Diver 42mm.-Looking for something classic that will never go out of style but still sporty.
