Sarpaneva Korona Moonshine Watch
Helsinki, Finland. Not the typical place for watch makers, but it is where the wild Stepan Sarpaneva calls home and creates his vividly interesting timepieces creations. Playing with his popular moon face, Stepan creates a new watch that utterly features the now popularized serious looking artful lunar gaze. Called the Korona Moonshine, the watch tells the time via a single rotating disc that moves around the periphery of the dial.You read the time in the lower region of the dial where a window opens up to reveal the moving disc. Right at the 6 o'clock position is a small arrow that is used in conjunction with indicators on the disc to tell the time. It isn't the most precise way to tell the time, but the trade-off might be worth it to have this "face" on your wrist.The time telling disc itself is covered in lume for night viewing. I think this is where the "shine" in moonshine comes in. It can be interpreted that the moon above the little window metaphorically provides the shine. Well

Found: A Rolex Submariner Lost At Sea, Recovered 14 Months Later...And Still Works
So we all know that the Rolex Submariner is a good diving watch. But what we didn't know is that the beloved Sub could sink to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, only to be recovered 14 months later, and still work (after a bit of winding).Yes, you read that correctly. The story is, a gentleman was fishing in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of British Columbia when his Submariner's bracelet snagged on his fishing rod. The watch promptly flew into the ocean and sank. The quick-thinking owner marked his coordinates and miraculously worked out a deal with a local dredging barge to search the area from time to time (for a fee of $85 per hour with a $1,000 cash reward). 1 OF 1 Miraculously, 14 months later, the watch was found in 100 meters of water and after a few turns of the crown – it worked! Although not pictured, there was apparently a barnacle attached to the bezel. The watch is currently being serviced. Read the full post here&

Clean salt from diver
Any suggestions how to clean off salt residue stuck in and around the seals?Rinsing or some pooldiving today didn't do the trick, I used some soap and cleaned most of the watch but I didn't want to push the salt in under the bezel so I didn't touch it.

5196..too big
Had a chance to try on a 5196 at boutique today.Case was flat with lugs not adapting to wrist well..leaving gaps wide opened. Looks and feels like a 40mm watch..which is dreadful for a dress watch.Dial lacks contrast and very difficult to read. Too much empty spaces on dial as well.Really wanna love this but gotta past. :(Ymmv

Black and blue by the pool...oysterflex bonus
Sitting by the pool this afternoon wearing my BLNR and it works perfectly. Went by my ad this am, asked them if they possibly had any extra oysterflex bracelets laying around for my stainless 116520. He pulled one out of the drawer, said ¡°this is all I have and you¡¯re welcomed to it.¡± Gave it to me for nothing lol. Now only one to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
