IWC Portuguese Grande Complication
Twenty years ago IWC debuted its Grande Complication, and at SIHH 2010, the 657-component movement made its first ever appearance in a Portuguese case. Dubbed the flagship of the Portuguese fleet, the automatic-winding 79091 caliber offers a chronograph that records up to 12 hours, perpetual calendar displaying the day, date, month and the complete year in four digits, moon phase accurate to 1 day in 122 years, minute repeater, and small hacking seconds. IWC’s original Grande Complication required 7 years of development to make so many complications fit in a wearable wristwatch. Though the movement is highly complex, the dial displays are crystal clear, and the 4 digit year display at 8 o’clock has become a signature visual reference point. The 45mm case is well proportioned, and remarkably for a minute repeater, it offers 3 bar water resistance. In keeping with the spirit of the Portuguese seafarers, the caseback is engraved with a sextant, and the silver dial features an

Lord Elgin 760 back from repair.
I just picked up my Lord Elgin 760 today. The watch I had bought last year. It has not been worn since 1966. It had been dropped of for a cleaning back in 1966 and the owner never picked it up. I even have the hand tag. The band is a NOS i purchased for it. 003.jpg004.jpg007.jpg

Panerai as a beater?
Not as bad as the title.Newbie looking at buying a first Panerai watch. The one I am looking at is a Luminor, am I correct in thinking all luminor models have the crown lock? I believe from what I have read this aids water resistance?There are a confusion of model types, but the one I am after will just have second hand and date. To get back to the thread I have a simple Seiko 5 at the moment I wear most of the time. I am after a 'better' watch I can wear for work with an enhanced presence, but not over the top.The qualities I am after is to wear the watch basically 24 / 7 , in the sea / pool on holiday, and golf / low energy sports etc. Would the Panerai live like this? Not really bothered about picking up the odd scratch, and also planning to have it on a stainless bracelet for water purposes. Any advice before making the purchase would be appreciated.Toby.

Trilogy: Batman or Pepsi or something completely different
Hi guys, My first post here, I've been lurking on this forum since getting my first Rolex a few months back. In three months I've turned into a total watch fiend, I am genuinely suprised at how quickly this has progressed. I picked up a new Explorer 1 39mm and luckily enough also managed to get my hands on a Sub no date the month after. I love both and really think these are probably the two best looking and perfectly formed watches ever.But already I have a wandering eye and I'm looking at 1, possibly 2 more watches to complete the collection.I was initially thinking of the original Moonwatch but tbh the quality really seems lacking when I tried it on side by side with the sub and ex. I love the history but it's not doing it for me on the wrist - it feels a bit flimsy and cheap. I went through a Pelagos stage too, but in the end decided it was too similar to my sub.While I've also been admiring the new GMT Pepsi, I can't help but think it's going to light up like a disco ball on the w
