Armin Strom Reveals First In-House Made Movement, The Calibre ARM09
Armin Strom is the newest watch makers around who is proud to announce that they will be making their own movements. Funded by some big money gentlemen who want results, they wanted their brand to have in-house made movements, so they made it happen. Until now Armin Strom watches featured impressively decorated movements sourced from ETA, but that is all about to change. The ARM09 is proof of that. Usually when a watch maker releases their first in-house made movement it is fine. Nothing special, but it is still their own "baby." Armin Strom on the other hand has given us something very pretty, with impressive specs to make.One thing I can't get out of my mind. The design on the movement has an uncanny resemblance to another watch I know. Compare the Armin Strom calibre ARM09 with the MB&F HM3 (specially the Sidewinder). I don't even need to explain, you'll see how similar they are. ARM09 stands for "Armin?? Reserve Marche 2009." This should make sense. For those who don't know, Re

Speedy Moonphase = First Omega Purchase
Hello all,Made my first purchase - a speedy moonphase 3576 with clear display back. Have not received the piece yet. In the mean time, I have a few questions.1. I realize that only 3000 have been made and sources online say that it was first made in 1998. I think the store had to order one from Omega but does that mean the watch has been sitting there for more than 5 years? Is this a cause of concern?2. Also, this watch has 18 jewels. May I ask why for an automatic watch there are more jewels? As an example, the IWC pilot has about 25 and it's not a moonphase.3. On the Omega site it says that the 3576 has "Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment inside." But I just want to confirm this is used both FRONT and BACK right? I did not want one with the plexiglass front.Thanks in advance. Very excited for the new purchase I am indeed!

The next revised Rolex model
OK, so we're getting to the end of the 10 year 'upgrading' of the line. There's 2 years left, and still 2 sports models untouched - the Explorer II and the Yacht-Master. Yes, the Explorer probably now has the new GMT movement, but that's not really a refresh. What changes do you think are in store for these 2 models. My AD & I were pondering what could be in store for these lines. Keep in mind, this was just 2 watch guys talking their opinions. We both agree that it's unlikely Rolex won't substantially change these models. It just seems kind of scattered to leave these 2 models alone when every other model has has significant changes. So relative to the Yacht-Master, here's what we were brainstorming:1) leave the case alone & only upgrade the bracelet & clasp (seems kind of half-efforted though).2) use the new GMT's "supercase", bracelet & clasp but the YM's bezel (gold or platinum).3) Introduce a TT & SS YM-II & discontinue the YM altogether.While I much

skx175 v skx009 price difference
I have read so many posts regarding these watches, the whole issue of are they the same model and if so what is the difference if any. Every post says they are basically the same watch with just a couple of minor difference regarding lettering on the dial and caseback and they are for different markets worldwide. If the above is true and they are the same watch then why does the skx175 carry a higher price tag. I have seen dealers selling both models but the 175 can be up to $80 more expensive, one of our site sponsors is selling both at different prices. Would you be prepared to pay the extra just to own the 175 ?
