Recommend a watch to a complete newbie?
Hey guys,I'm looking to purchase my first "real" watch, and I was hoping for some advice or a shove in the right direction for those much more informed than myself (I apologize if this is the wrong forum, I did a search and checked the FAQ but couldn't find anything, feel free to move). I'm 22, finishing college in less than 2 weeks, start my first "real" job after the New Year, and I really want to get a nice watch. Basically, I've never really worn a watch, so I don't have that great an idea of what I'm looking for. Things I do know: I would prefer a quartz movement, or similiar in terms of I don't want to have to manually wind it or wear it all the time for an automatic movement to keep the time correct. Water resistant so I don't have to take it off for showering etc. I like very simple designs, no chronograph or anything, and I like the date and sometimes day displays. Don't like any out there colors, no gold, mostly just silvers, whites, blacks and grays. Most importantly, I want

Today's Featured German Watch Story...The City of Glashutte
from glashutte.netGlashutte is a small town of about 4,700 residents near Saxony, Germany. The town’s name means “tin mine” or “silver mine” and has been a watch town since 1845, when Ferdinand Lange established a teaching workshop for watchmakers.Lange received state funding to set up this school in order to open new employment opportunities for young men in this depressed area. After completing their training, the watchmakers remained in Glashutte to work on specializations and before long, a business had developed. By 1900, every other home had a watchmaker’s workshop for parts such as gears, springs, cases, etc. The quality of these parts equaled that of the Swiss watchmakers. However, after World War II, Glashutte found itself behind the Iron Curtain under Soviet power. This power created a state-formed conglomerate by coalescing factories and suppliers, and for 40 years Glashutte Watch Enterprises toiled under often extreme conditions to

GMTII quickset date changing at 10-11pm
On my 116710 (purchased new in Dec 2017), if I move the quickset hour hand back and forth a few times between 9 and 11, the date will advance at 10 or 11. If I move it slowly and deliberately one hour at a time, it doesn’t. Anyone else experienced this with a 3186? Should I send it in? No issues otherwise, it keeps near perfect time, and the date changes normally around midnight with the crown screwed down.
