LarryD's post inspired me
So, it got me to thinking about my Deville co-axials. By the way, I am no master of Photoshop so what you see is pretty much what the camera captured. It was a very enjoyable experience to play around like this. You may know there is a calibre 2500B and 2500C, which differed in the B version being 8 beats per second/28,800 and the C being 7 beats a second/25,200. The Deville above is a 2500B and runs at 8 beats a second, which you can see at higher magnification.A half second exposure is a little easier to see:I like this one, but should have cleaned the watch better!!Next I tried to get my Deville GMT, which has a 2628C, running at 7 beats a second/25,200 and the Deville above set to the same time and get a photo of both second hands with a one second exposure. Another shotClose ups of each hand, 7 beat 2628C GMT on left, 8 beat 2500B on the rightBefore moving on, I just loved the lighting on the blued second hand on the 2500BSo, what about chronographs?5 beat a second/18,000 1940s L

Milgauss GV Warranty Card
Hi AllI was nearly ready to pull the trigger on a GV from a AD in South East Asia but felt the warranty card was printed wrongly.Am I right that the warranty card should state model number, serial number, bracelet number and the dial type.The one that I looked at stated Oyster Perpetual which i thought was strange as it didnt mention bracelet type

Tudor Pelagos HEV orientation question
Since my last fiasco with the well done fake Pelagos I got off ebay my search has led me to start obsessing over visual clues that would indicate a potential fake out there. My search is focused on the 25500tn as I prefer the 2 liner and the eta movement for ease of service, most importantly it is not as thick coming in under 14mm at 13.8mm (per what research I've found). On to my question - I've noticed the orientation of the HEV text is different on some as opposed to others - any rhyme or reason...or am I over analyzing this?There is one for sale from one of the most notable trusted sellers out there, but the HEV orientation on the particular watch has me hesitant. I know they fully stand 100% behind their products, but after getting burned once I'm cautious on the next purchase. thoughts?

Question on Bracelets and Daytonas
Good morning everyone!I read this website hours a day and have for years. I learn so much from you all that I have very little to post. But I do have a question for you all now. As background, this year is a big year for me ¨C I turn 40, I¡¯m expecting a significant positive shift in my position at work, and I¡¯ve been rebuilding our home that was largely destroyed by the government in the wake of Hurricane Harvey here in Houston (we expect to be moving back into the house in a matter of months, which is a near miracle for our family). For Christmas my wife gave me an envelope with a ¡°buy yourself a nice watch, you deserve it¡± note inside. It was a fantastic gift from a wonderful woman, and I¡¯ve started plotting for the Daytona I¡¯ve always wanted (stainless white dial, it is the perfect complement to my 16610 and my pepsi GMT Master II). However, what has caught my eye on several recent watch hunting trips has been the white gold meteorite dial reference. It¡¯s a beautiful watch and
