Invicta Speedway Chronograph Blue Dial Stainless Steel Men's Watch 14382

Can the Seedy Pro pull off formal wear?
Zin's previous post about dress watches got me thinking. When I get my speedy, if I was to put a nice alligator strap on it would it be nice enough for formal wear? Do you think that even on the bracelet could it pull off formal wear? I'm not in a suit and tie very often, so I figure buying a dress watch is a bit of a waste for me. I'm much more into sport watches, so I was hoping that I could find one that could pull off all occasion with a simple strap change. Lets hear your opinions.Thanks,Dave

Tried on my first Patek
I tried on my first Patek Philippe last week. And all I can say is wow.. It was a 5135R, the one I've always looked at the closest in pictures. You know, this one.. (picture shamelessly snagged from Milos):I'm a huge moon-phase fan and I really like annual calendar models, but only the aperture style, not the sub-dial style. So naturally I was drawn to this model, but never had the opportunity to try one on. It actually made me feel like a different person once I strapped it onto my wrist. I was even offered a very nice discount, but sadly it's too much for right now.. However, it's definitely solidified that a Patek IS in my future - someday Until then I'll have to live that thru your guys pictures...

Vintage seamaster auto with date
im not sure of the model number.I saw one in a flea market with an original fishnet(sort of) bracelet.what's a reasonable price for it assuming 100% authentic?Dial looks aged but running fine. Plexi looks too new to be original though.It's an auto watch but the seller says I need to move the date wheel by turning from 9 to 3 and then 3 to 9...etc..sorry...but im a noob with omegas..just find the dial mesmerising.

Omega Speedmaster Opinions?
Hi troops:I have owned a Speedmaster Day-Date, which I sold to fund the purchase of my 16710 GMT.I always liked the Speedy Pro, even though you have to wind the movement every day and even though there's no date. The movement, plexiglass crystal and matte dial are the same basic design used by NASA to equip their astronauts on lunar missons. Gotta love that! There is a 50th anniversary Pro out this year; instead of going towards a Sub LV, I may save a few K and consider the Speedy Pro (anniversary if possible) or a Kobold Soarway Diver.Any thoughts or opinions?Cheers,Chris
