Glashutte Original PanoLunarTourbillon Watch Hands-OnWith all the attention that A. Lange & S?hne is receiving, one might be tempted to think that they are the biggest name in the Glassh¨¹te region, but that may not be so. Just down the street is Glassh¨¹te Original, who is renown for its ¡°Pano¡± watches and its exquisite flying tourbillons. Don't just take my word for it, check out its new PanoLunar Tourbillon watch.Source: watches-dealer2. Watch Lover Celebrity John Mayer Sues Bob Maron For $656,000 After Buying S

Approx value of two datejusts.
I'm wondering if someone can give me the approximate vale of these two watchesUnfortunately all I have to work with is the pics, both include boxes and papers.

Tested my new watch
Bought my Hamilton November 1, 2008. After reading some posts on testing accuracy. I decided to test my new watch for a week. I used a web site that claims to be "Accurate within 0.4 seconds."On the third attempt at setting my watch, I was able to get within 6 seconds of the official time and decided to work from that.A couple questions.1. Is it common to find a watch that is 7 seconds fast one day, and then 8 or 9 seconds fast the next day?2. The watch is new, will it break-in and settle down? If so, as it breaks-in, will it get faster or slower?

Some updates from my dealer:
Looks like the dreaded price increases did not affect the standard mainline watches; i.e., stainless Speedmasters and Seamasters.As for the newer pieces, he has four of the LE Bond watches in stock. I am so old that the only Bond for me is Sean Connery and he wore a Rolex but having seen the LE Bond in the steel, I must say that I am impressed.For those of us interested in the First Omega in Space (I call it the Schirra Speedy), he has no news as to when it might arrive. The official word remains September. The order list is growing but I'm still #1.Fr. John?

The Railmaster's great, maybe an 8500 next . . .
I'm really loving my 36mm Railmaster. So much, if fact, that I'm wondering if I should start thinking about one of those lovely 38.5mm ATs with the 8500 movement and teck dials. I've seen some nice photos of the Teck Grey dial, does anyone have some of the one in Teck Opaline Silver? I'm telling you, this is just crazy . . . now I'm looking at Rolex and Omega watches.
