Deep Blue Gen 1 Abyss
My favorite Deep Blue by far.Love everything about it...the old school Deep Blue are the ones to own, not a fan of the new stuff at all.1930974_10205755480108965_7702548439302715275_n.jpg 10368223_10205755480828983_3157803521911951760_n.jpg 1936498_10205755481188992_8511758759341610678_n.jpg 1010620_10205755481348996_88705066653158660_n.jpg 936043_10205755481549001_3438309204443386906_n.jpg

Its Late
I have only just come across this, I know its little late, but maybe others have not seen itMOVADOAnnounced: May 28, 2010The Chicago Tribune reports that Movado Group Inc., the Swiss watchmaker and jeweler, plans to close its money-losing retail division by the end of June in a move to turn around the company. It will close all 27 U.S. stores. The company said it doesn't intend to run any store closing or liquidation sales, a move to protect its brand name.

Mechanical watch accuracy
I am new mechanical watches, and recently acquired two - an Omega Seamaster Aquaterra, and a Swiss Army Divemaster 500 Mechanical.The Omega accuracy is amazing while on my wrist. Over the course of certain weeks, there is no discernable gain/loss (less than 1 second). When I am not wearing it, it goes on an Orbita winder, and it will loose 3-5 seconds per day. It looses a similar amount of time if I leave it stationary (keeping it manually wound, of course).The Divemaster is consistently approximately 8 seconds per day fast while on my wrist, and is less than 1 second per day off while on the Orbita winder or while stationary.In both cases, the watches slow down when not worn. Is this typical, and is this related to motion, postition, temperature (body temperature is higher than room temperature), or something else?I am at peace with this variablity in accuracy. I am an engineer who is intrigued by why things like this happen.Your input is much apprecaited.

On the list. Now hurry up and wait...
Put deposit down but not available until June so now the wait begins. The pics don't do it justice. Platinum/TitaniumSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good day all. Well I said I wouldn't be buying another watch this year but I've kind of been Jonesing for this one for a while ...I'm curious what the collective here think of it? I already have a 690 which has the same movement (essentially). Would this be redundant or does the Luminor wear significant different than theb1940 Radiomir?My collection is: Dblue, Sd43 and the aforementioned 690.It's only available on the gray market and selling at quite a premium to original list.A picture (not mine) for discussion. Panos if you're there .... please chime in Thoughts??Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk
