4R36 break in period
I got my SRP227 yesterday and got it all set up. This morning I set it to the Atomic clock and with the USNO clock at 0630 and I just checked and she is 8 secs slow at 1830,about 12 hours.What is a good break in period for her to settle in so to speak?

Own a nice winder? Got money for a lawyer?
Many of the nicer watchwinders come in rosewood, ebony, mahogeny and other exotic woods which are woods subjected to the Lacey Act (google it for info)we are not talking CITES Appendix 1 woods either. If the purchased wood is not properly documented (think a boatload of paperwork), it can be seized anyway along the chain (from the person who cuts the wood to the person who sells the finished product (in theory the product can be seized from the owner crossing the border). There is an ongoing problem occurring with Gibson Guitars and the feds over wood (rosewood and ebony) which Gibson purchased in India which was seized a few weeks ago (this is the second seizure of wood at Gibson). It is likely to have a ripple effect across many industries; guitars, furniture, watch winders, and anything else that uses exotic woods.

Just another Newbie
Hi folks, at last I'm a member of the forum.I had a bit of trouble with my comfirmation email,but here I am. I have collected watches now for around 8 years, continualy swapping and selling my collection. I have never stuck with any one brand and not all my watches are expensive. in fact some were down right cheap, but since they have all but disappeared their values have risen.My two latest additions are a Technomarine raft Chronograph 2003 vintage boxed and papered and a Must de cartier gold on Silver manual wind Tank 1982 vintage boxed and papered, both watches in mint condition. I have never photographed or catlogued my watches,which is a terrible admission bearing in mind I am a photographer my trade but I will and post on here as soon as I have time (Busy work schedule) Anyway there we are, glad to be here and I hope I can learn from the the real masters on here.Cheers Brian

First Omega!!!!
Alright I'll be honest I've always been a Rolex fan and thought I would never get an omega. But in the past few weeks I've seen so many speedmasters on people, forums, and random articles that I started getting the itch. I thought I was done with watches for at least a few years after getting my SubC and GMT2 BLNR but I was wrong. Since my last name is Moon I always felt I needed a moonwatch but got mesmerized by the Daytona as my future chronograph. But then after stumbling on speedmaster history I was totally obsessed. I started with whether or not I wanted the sapphire sandwich since I love display backs especially for such a beautiful movement! Every forum I read said the hesalite is absolutely critical. Eventually after seeing sapphire in person I realized the hesalite was the way to go. But then I saw the 3572.50. Long story short I still want it and I'm looking for a NOS 3572.50. But in the mean time.....I emailed DavidSW and picked up a perfect speedmaster with all the extra go
