Jaeger-LeCoultre MASTER EXTREME WORLD CHRONOGRAPH STAINLESS STEEL NEW

Oris BC4 black-on-black
So I bought an Oris BC4, with black case, black strap, non-chrono....pre-owned!I had an Oris BC3 Sportsman 42mm, which I sold on eBay. I really preferred the BC4.I bought the BC4 watch from a top store in Montreal that sells pre-owned watches (mostly super high end stuff like Hublot, Blancpain, Panerai, etc.). The pre-owned price was just too tempting.The watch is absolutely like brand new- with 2 years of Oris warranty remaining. Immaculate.I actually bought this piece as a low-cost alternative to a Bell & Ross- aviation style, casual, clean & simple dial, decent size.Oris website says case size is 42.7mm but every other website lists it as 43.5mm. It's not huge, but it is a really nice size.The quality of this piece is really something- the crown is the best feature with its beautifully machined contours. And its lock-in mechanism. The bracelet is also super nice with a superb folding clasp.My current collection includes:TAG Heuer Link quartzTAG Heuer Aquaracer Automati

Saw Quantum of Solace
Besides the Omega, could not identify the watches, but Giancarlo Gianini is back as Mathis.There's a shot at his villa with a big white dress watch with arabic numerals on a huge thick brown hand made leather band. I'm guessing IWC.Then later there's a more high tech style probably digital/analog hybrid in gray and black on Jeffrey Wright who's back as Felix, also on a huge thick brown hand made leather band.Some other shots of big watches on bodyguards wearing fatigues later in the movie.Without a dvd can't post any pix...yet....Not much focus on anyone doing anything with the watches, not using them to time anything or garotte anyone or anything else. In fact, there was a scene where Bond is in a dark cave-like area and I thought he really should have an H3 watch but no matter, he didn't check the time once.

Awesome new Offshore - Incoming!
I just love these clocks and the best is the latest version in an Offshore design. Group photo with my RO and Diver versions. I have a couple of other ones but they aren't to hand at the moment.

Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed!
I received a lovely surprise this morning when the Fedex guy turned up at my office with a package from none other than TRF's own roach7 (Henry). I was stunned because Henry dropped off the package on Monday around 5pm local Dubai time and at 9.15am it was sitting in my hands. I have to say I am very impressed with Fedex's Priority service.What is it you ask? Well, take a look below. I have to say the Apollo 11 35th Anniversary Speedmaster looks even better in person than it does in the PR pictures. An absolute knock out of a watch. Copper

It was water resistant to 600 meters.
