Photos of sapphire case back
Here are some photos of my Datejust with a sapphire case back. The photos are not so good partly because it is a bad camera but mainly because of the photographer

Goodbye TAG Spiro (for a while...)
Well, I finally bit the bullet & took my Tag Diver to the AD today to leave it with them for some work. It's been 12 years without any service so it's well overdue for an overhaul. 4-6 weeks to get this done (as quoted by the AD):New mineral crystal glass (I actually thought it was sapphire, but obviously not).Dismantle movement completely.Chemically clean movement, inspect and replace necessary parts.Dismantle, clean and polish case and bracelet (bracelet is brand new original item last September so shouldn't need anything done. Case has a couple of medium scratches - bet they don't make much effort to fix them...).Reassemble movement, (whew, and I thought they'd just give me a box of parts back) lubricate and adjust.Adjust escapement and regulate.Replace all gaskets, perform vacuum and pressure tests.For the grand total of $495NZD ($392USD).I will post pics of this when it gets back.I can't help but think of all the lovely watches I could have bought for the cost of this service.

Questions about my '60s Constellation
I have owned this '60s Constellation for several years, but up until I took my Sea Dweller in for service, it didn't get much (any?) wrist time. Too bad... after wearing it for a few weeks I really, really like it (although it is pretty 'dainty' as compared to the SD).What I know about the watch isn't much... this is pretty much it:Stainless case does not appear to have ever been polished, the angles and 'edges' are nice and crisp.The Omega script, the omega symbol, and the little star are all applied on the dial.The crystal is new... I had Kevin at TimeTech (in Dallas) completely service the watch when I got it)... it has a little omega symbol in the center of the crystal.There's a lot that I don't know, including... How can I tell if the dial has been refinished?Does it have the correct crown?What movement would be in this watch?I would be most grateful for any 'answers, that anyone could provide!All the best,RobPS: This thing keeps excellent time!!

newly serviced Exp II running fast
my 16570 came back from the Toronto RSC 4 days ago after a full service. it's running nearly 4 seconds fast / day.i've been wearing it 16 hours / day and have it on a winder overnight.should i give it a few weeks to see if it comes to w/in spec, or should i expect it to be more accurate immediately? i paid for it, i would like the accuracy.

Anyone gotten a discount on a SS Submariner this year?
I¡¯m gonna pick mine up from an AD tomorrow. It¡¯s set aside for me, no wait list was involved. I¡¯m wondering if anyone has had success getting a discount in this situation since the Great SS Drought has begun. I¡¯m in the Southwest, USA.
