Omega Museum Launches New Website
In May, 2010, Omega reopened its museum in Biel, Switzerland following several months of renovations. The Museum, located just opposite Omega’s headquarters, originally opened in January of 1984, and it is the oldest museum dedicated to a single watch brand. Now, the museum has a new, dedicated website. Find a link inside. Speaking of the museum’s renovation period, Omega president Stephen Urquhart likened it to an anthropological dig. ¡°Not only did we renovate the whole Museum but we also restored many of the period features of this listed building. We discovered things hidden in the archives which we didn¡¯t even know we had and when the Museum reopened, some of these objects were presented to the public for the first time. Extending the opening hours to Saturday will allow even more people to enjoy what is on display.¡±The museum features items representing the brand¡¯s entire history, from the watchmaker¡¯s bench used by Louis Brandt when he began to make watches more than

Hands-On: The Glash¨¹tte Original The Senator Excellence, A Handsome Three-Hander Powered By A New Ca
Made In Germany. This label, coined by the British to discourage the purchase of foreign goods, has since become a promise of quality sought by consumers around the world. And it’s armed with these three words that German watchmakers are hoping to appeal to collectors. But they also raise expectations. ?Hoping to match them, Glashütte Original have developed a brand new movement line that sets itself apart in terms of longevity, precision, and serviceability. And since we’re at Baselworld, they’ve timed its release to coincide with a new collection called the Senator Excellence. I had the opportunity of wearing the watch during the first 100 hours of Baselworld, and here are my thoughts. 1 OF 7 A classic three-hander, presented in both dress watch and pilot watch form, it’s a real beauty, with a slim bezel, polished and brushed surfaces and a price that puts it in direct competition with the equally handsome Zenith Elite 6150 from 2015.Both ar

1918 Elgin Trench Watch with a STAR Cushion Case ! ! !
Hey guys !ALMOST all of the time when you see an American cushion case trench watch the case was manufactured by the Illinois Watch Case Company and sometimes by Joseph Fahys & Company.This is one of the rare exceptions to that rule!This cushion case was manufactured by the Star Watch Case Company!The STAR cases are EXTREMELY difficult to locate and obtain.It's the ONLY one that I've found over the past 4 years.The main difference is in the lug design.The lugs on this STAR case go all the way out to the tips of the cushion case and they are tapered, meaning that they get narrow at the ends where the strap is attached.They are very thick measuring 2.25mm in diameter and they will take a larger strap measuring 16mm wide..This watch has simply the BEST of everything!The 15 jewel movement (grade 464) was the best that Elgin produced in 1918 and it looks like it was just made yesterday, one of the cleanest movements that I ever seen.The STERLING SILVER case measures 40mm lug tip to lug

I you had a choice between these two, Which One Would You Pick!?!?!?
Hey all,I'm thinking of pulling the trigger tomorrow but im torn between these two.the AP limited Legacy, or the rose gold rubber clad.. the Legacy is MSRP 47k and the RG Roo is MSRP 55k, but I could prob get the RG Roo for the around the same price as the legacy, off the disscounted Legacy price which I have not listed.. so it seems the RG is a better bang for the buck, but I don't want to pull the trigger just based on that reason alone..let me know what you all think?
