Franck Muller Custom Oppa Gangnam Style Watch For PSY
Franck Muller, the always interesting and sometimes over-the-top Swiss watchmaker has produced a one-of-a-kind timepiece apparently for Korean musical artist PSY. Depicting PSY doing his more than well-known horse riding dance right on the dial, the likely 18k white gold or platinum watch is full pave covered with diamonds. Black diamonds are used to fill in the large Roman numerals and the image of PSY dancing is likely hand painted.The watch image was shared direct from a Franck Muller insider so for sure it is a legit piece for the pop superstar. PSY's famous Gangnam Style music video on YouTube (as of this article) has over 1.5 billion views. I suppose it was about time to treat himself (or perhaps it is a gift to PSY). franckmullerwatches-dealer

A Daytona visits Park City UT - Oh, the beautiful things it saw...
Just got back from a 7 nt trip to Park City UT w/the Pentagon Ski Club. I was one of the only 2 non skiiers out of the 45 people that went. My wife skis, I don't. I tried cross country one daynot for me. I tried to take some pics but I realize they didn't come out great. I'm using a 6 year old point and shoot, so consider the source. There was so much to do for a non skiier - had an amazing time and every minute of the day was filled up doing stuff while she skied. Went to see 2 plays, 2 movies, Olympic Park for 2 days to see all sorts of neat stuff and the museum, did 2 nature hikes on snowshoes, visited the different surrounding towns.The little tiny AD I went to. Great collection of Rolexes though for a little store. They had my grail watch, the meteorite DaytonaI could snowshoe but not skiOn a snowshoe ventureHappy to be out of my hotel room in the great outdoorsMy favorite piece of art on the trip. Park City had amazing galleries. This one is truly wonderful, but I'd ha

My Wilshire project before and after
Before: cheap ebay buy that needed repair.After: servicing and a new crystal, some polishing, and a brown suede strap. One thing I didn't take foresee is how the lugs add to the overall length of the straps.youtube/watch?v=zEf6AzKv4Dg&fmt=18 video of the 982 movement

To wind or not to wind, that is the question?
Hi, Rik.First tiime poster on your technical forum, sorry for the corny title! I have a fairly simple question for someone of your expertise, however it really is the foundation of how our manual wind watches work. And that's the winding! First off, you probably need to know which watch I am referring to as I know different watches have different power reserves, as high as 10 days if I'm not wrong. I just bought a Panerai, more specifically a PAM000. Love the watch, hate when it stops telling time. As far as I can tell it should have at least a 40 hour reserve if not a 56 hour. I wind the watch daily but it still seems to stop occassionally. My AD suggested winding it 20 (what would be half turns) each morning. I found that this has not been enough. Winding it once in the morning and once at night seems to work better.I didn't wind it last night and my kids were late for school as I thought it was 8:25am until I saw on my iphone that it was 8:44am.Can you explain to me the pr
