Limited Editions
My factoid of the Day (8-4-08) about a "Limited Edition" Oris - 2000 pieces - got me thinking about this topic again.I suppose in a global economy, a 2000-piece LE is a drop in the bucket. But it seems like a lot to me. And LEs were all the rage as a marketing gimmick a few years back. (Maybe, we've wised up) There seems to be fewer offerings.So what is really a limited edition, in your opinion.Invicta, for example, routinely produces "limited editions" of about 6,000 to 10,000 watches.Swiss Watch International, another TV retailer, produces limited editions of about 2500 pieces - 500 in each dial color for example.Bradley Time (now defunct) produced a 10,000-piece Donald Duck LE (which I own) back in the 1980s.Gevril GV2s are supposedly 500-piece LEs, too. But they just make a very slight change to the dial or something and crank out the same watch over and over again.My Clerc (black dial) is actually an LE of 199. But there seems to be a lot of 'em available (). However, the MOP dial

Video Review of the Nixon 51-30 Tide Watch
I've only just been infected with the Watch Collector's disease recently, so I was overjoyed to find this very informative and active forum to feed my addiction and thirst for knowledge.Anyway, since I can't take photos like everyone here (yet!), I made a video review of my first watch purchase, the Nixon 51-30. And then I had to make a follow-up to fill in all the stuff I forgot in the first review (newbie!). Anyway, trying to contribute something to this community.Thanks!youtube/user/BigWatchFan

What do you think about this DeVille?
Hey everyone!I have this Omega on its way to me and I am thinking - keep or not?and here are the details:.omega.ch/index.php?id=597...031&no_cache=1What are your thoughts - or What attracted me to it was the complication - a co-axial split level chronograph (Rattrapante). This would be my first Omega, should I decide to keep it. I Thank You for your input in advance!

Incoming BLNR and an Opportunity
I've been itching for a new watch due to a busy and profitable year at work, and I somehow settled on a BLNR in the last month when I saw the new releases at Basel. I didn't have a prior relationship with a Rolex AD, but I was able to get a BLNR through a friend's AD within the week with my friend's help. I love the watch so far, though it does remind me a bit of my 104060 (Sub C ND). I did want something a fit shinier, so I think this watch bits the bill for now. I've also been thinking of selling my 15400 (Royal Oak) since I don't wear it much. I think I'm just too OCD for the watch with its sharp edges and marvelous finish. At the same time, I find it hard to let go. In the course of conversation with the AD, my desire for a white Daytona C came up. Now, I've had the 116520 (Daytona) in black and eventually let it go, but I can't help but want another one, except this time with a ceramic bezel. Of course, the 116500 (Daytona C) is impossible to get, but I am also interested in the 1
