Jenny Caribbean 300 Review
The history of dive watches is a labyrinth of design and engineering from brands both large and small. Tracing the modern diver back to the mid 20th century you have big players, such as Blancpain and Rolex, creating what are now icons alongside of smaller brands that were? forgotten and others that today have achieved cult status. Some of these brands made icons in their own right, such as Squale and Zodiac, or made cases for other brands that defined a style, like EPSA with their Super-Compressors. Today we're going to take a look at a brand that is far more obscure, though they were on the forefront of dive watch innovation in the mid-twentieth century and have persisted in the background until today; Jenny.Founded in 1953 by Paul Gustav Jenny, Jenny & Cie S.A. was a brand that was focused on diving technology. Their line of watches, known as the Jenny Caribbeans, quickly raised the bar for water resistance, claiming to have created the first 1000m diver, the Jenny Caribbean 100

The Positive Side of Being Outbid on Ebay
1) You don't have to worry that you paid too much.2) It's better for one NOT to get everything one wants.3) You don't have to explain the expense to your wife.Of these, number 3 may be the most important.

Moonphase question for watches
We were discussing moonphases in the Ball Forum, and I had a question on how to synch up the watch with the moon. Know IWC does have some watches, where this is not necessary, due to the complications (and hence the increased price); however, I do not believe Ball, or many other watches have this complication. Which leads me to ask:How does one synch up their watch to the lunar calendar?

Accessing WTF on an iPhone?
Apologies that this isn't directly watch-related, but I wanted to mention accessing WTF on my iPhone. I imagine there must be plenty out there like me who rely on an iPhone to keep in touch with WTF regularly. I've just come across an application for accessing forum sites and I have to say that it's absolutely brilliant. I am sure it's easilly found if you search the App Store. Or let me know if you want to k ow what it's called and I will PM it to you.

My Newest.... Christopher Ward C8 PILOT MK II - VINTAGE EDITION C8-SVKT-MK2
About a week ago I was alerted that there was a NIB C8 PILOT MK II - VINTAGE EDITION C8-SVKT-MK2 for sale on eBay. It had a reasonable "buy it now" price, and was one of the prized 'old logo' versions. How could I refuse. It arrived today and is exactly as described. New in the box, just as it left the CW HQ. I think it looks especially good on the tan leather strap. But unfortunately, with the CW clasp, the strap is just a bit too large for my wrist. So, I removed the clasp and replaced it with a Crown & Buckle black PVD buckle I had on hand. Now it fits perfectly on my 184 mm wrist using the last hole provided on the strap.This is my second C8, as I already have a C8 Pilot MK II with a beige dial. And as it is 44mm in diameter and only 9.7mm high I think it is just about the perfect fit for me.Info from the CW website:Features> Swiss made> 26 Jewel automatic movement> Incabloc anti-shock system> 38 Hour power reserve> Old Radium Super-luminova hands and indices&
