Invicta Specialty GMT Multi-Function Yellow Dial Stainless Steel Men's Watch 80267

219 Kukulkan Watch
Three Swiss guys were drunk one night after partying and they came up with this watch model and brand idea. I am not making that up, that is what the press release clearly says. Their combined intoxicated intelligence seemed to agree that it was their personal mission in life to realize the first ever high-end watch borne out of pre-Columbian Latin American culture.The trio drew influence from things they had seen in Mexico and chose to focus on ancient Mayan culture. Of the most provocative elements of ancient Mayan culture is their calendar and view of how the world began (and will end). All that was just too cool for the bored young men so they decided to make the watch in honor of Kukulkan - the feathered snake (guy) of Mayan lore.A pyramid in now Mexico is built to honor Kukulkan. There are engraved statues of his image there. An image that is replicated on the Kulkulkan watch on the dial and the back in high relief. The "219" name of the brand refers to some Mayan calendar numera

Has anyone had ro send their waatch in for service?
I need to send in My 1 year old Super Avenger for service. It was running about +5 seconds. now it is at +10 seconds. The rotor seems to be making more noise as it free spins. It is under warranty from the AD that I bought it from. Has anyone had to send their watch in to Breitling for repairs? How long of a wait should I expect. Where would you recommend sending it to? Here in the States or to the service center in Switzerland? I hat to send it in but I want it to be right. Any advice or information would be appreciated.Thanks

Look what the cat dragged it. Hopefully I'll get better photos later.

New (To Me) Omega Speedmaster Triple Date
I recently picked up this pre-loved Omega Speedmaster in good condition and for a good price. It came with a SS bracelet which didn't do anything for me so I switched it out for this Hirsch leather strap which gives it a completely new look. The thing that most attracted me to this watch was the triple date function, something I had been missing in my collection until now. Here are a few quick shots I took with my pocket camera before I get it into my light box later this week. Enjoy the picsDrew
