Remembering My Dad's Watch And The Birth Of Responsibility
This article is unlike most that you'll read on watches-dealer because it is inherently personal. Those who know me are aware of the fact that I am the most comfortable behind the camera, and while I regularly make a point to inject a healthy amount of opinion into our coverage of timepieces, I don't normally talk about myself. Today will be a bit different, because I am talking about the very special role that the "dad watch" can play in our lives. A dad watch is quite simply the (or a) timepiece your father wore while you were growing up. Maybe you remember it, maybe you even now own it. In any event, I think we too often forget how much we may have been influenced by our dad's wrist watch in our own tastes and lives.While this article is likely going to publish on Father's Day, it is being written a few months earlier in March of 2014.

Help with Accuracy
HelloI am new to the forum and am the proud owner of a new Superocean, (Blue Dial).I have been monitoring the accuracy for a couple of weeks and have observed the following:When wound fully, 40 winds as per the Breitlings user guide, the watch runs about 11 seconds fast in a 24 hour period, which of course is well outside COSC specs.After running for 24 hours or so, I reset and monitor again for 24 hours. In this instance it is 3.5 seconds fast, which is what I would expect.Is this normal for the Breitling? I have other automatics from Omega & Hamilton that don't behave this way.Any help is appreciated.

watch values?????
Where does one go to find watch values? I have a SS Omega Seamaster and a SS Corum I'm trying to value.

Rolex goes upmarket
I read a post a few months ago about rolex going up market and i cant help but feel thus is true.Called in to my AD today was told stock levels are hopeless and waiting lists are closed. This is the same AD I bought two subs from new. Was told numerically speaking I was not a VIP customer and would not find my self on any list.I can’t undertand how stock levels can be so low, its either rolex is genuinely holding back stock or ADs are selling direct to the grey market.What are your thoughts on current supply? Will it get any better? Its been atleast two years now?Time to move on. AP here i come...

36
Sometime in the future, I'm looking to buy a Day Date, but I am already torn between the new style Day Date II with the 41mm case and the original Day Date 36mm.I have a relatively slender wrist of 7 inches, but the new 41mm models fit me surprisingly well. I tried some on today at my AD. I thought that the 41mm DJ and DD would be too big for me, so I thought I would just automatically go with the classic 36mm models... but this was not the case.1. So now I ask, which of the two do YOU prefer?2. Also, please post pics of your Day Dates, as I am also trying to decide between Yellow and White gold and a bright or dark face combination
