Looking for a strap for Pam320
Hey, looking for a cool brown leather strap for my Pam320. I was set on a StrapSmith v1 and I emailed him, but was really dissappointed not to hear back from him. I even followed the directions and detailed everything i wanted. Is it because I didn't send payment immediately? In any case, who else makes a great strap? TIA.

Seiko King Seiko-Need Help!
Hi there folks! I have a 60's Seiko King Seiko that needs a little help. It has a bezel that 'presses' onto the crystal. It keeps the crystal in place. Well, it popped off while the watch was in my shirt pocket. I have had it at my local watch maker's, and he has tried to 'press' it on, but it won't stay on. He suspects that the gasket beneath the edges of the crystal is so old, it lacks the lubricity to expand to keep the bezel in place. It isn't supposed to be glued on. Does anyone know someone stateside that can fix this? I don't want to try shipping it to Seiko Japan if I can help it. Thanx, Chuck

totally bummed out
So I have been eyeballing the Dievas ocean timer in blue for sometime, well I went to order one and it's sold out, ok no big deal, try another sponsor site, no dice, well after a 2 week search, I have learned that they are no longer making blue and it's no longer available, I was really looking forward to adding that watch to my collection. I wonder why they stopped making the blue, but kept the black? So now I have to really dig and dig and see if maybe just maybe that someone out there still has them available. Thats my rant, thanks

Why do you "hate" quartz?
Have you ever sat & thought why you really hate quartz watches? It it really because they're 'soul-less' machines, waiting for a command to come to life on your wrist? Or is it because they're 'inferior' to their older brother? Or is it because they sit there with it's ticking second hand, so uncool not to sweep? Or is it something else?Why is it really that you & the rest of the civilized watch enthusiasts of the world "hate" quartz? Is it just destined to be the watch worlds red-headed stepchild? Let's hear it, why is it really that we love to hate quartz, and what would it take for you to feel some quartz-love?

Who wears their Omega everyday ??
Hi all, I've been thinking, I've been wearing my Black Monster practically everyday since I got it (about 4-5 months ago now) and my Omeags have been hardly getting any wrist time at all. I probably wear my PO once every other month, and my SMP even less than that. Now, I feel like just wearing one of my Omegas for my everyday' watch for like one month, then rotate on a per-month basis. I guess what I'm saying is my intent to buy a beater/everyday watch is causing me to miss my other watches. After all, what did we spend thousands of hard earned $$$ for ? Them to sit in the safe/box/etc. ?? What are your thoughts on the matter, and how many of you actually USE your Omega as your everyday wearer ?? Interesting to hear some comments !Thanks! Mike
