.1 Wilsdorf a day...

Spring drive controversy, revisited
When is a door a jar? It is with some mystification that I read posts claiming that the Seiko Spring Drive is not a true mechanical watch, horologically speaking, of course. I must admit that I haven’t an unbiased view on this matter, especially in light of my more knowledgeable peers. However, (let’s just throw the fat on the fire) one might make the case that a nice new Nikon SLR with its many electronic features is not a real camera. A closer analogy would be the replacement of the distributor, points and capacitor in most modern automobile engines with electronic ignition. Does this addition make them electric cars? My view is that a main spring does indeed drive the hands of my Ananta and the lack of an escapement does not alter this fact. If a battery or capacitor were the source of stored energy, then I would concede that the Spring Drive was not a true mechanical watch. Such is not the case. Opined with respectUglyone4u

Intrigued by AP
Guys, as a loyal Rolex and Breitling enthusiast, I can't help but notice the AP ROO pics I see here but have never seen one in person nor a dealer in Massachusetts. Does anyone know if there is a MA dealer so I can try one on?AP's website doesn't show one, but I think that is more for AP boutiques than dealers.

Double Incoming!!!
Hi everyone! I am so excited about my UPS package that came in this morning! After a ton of searching and looking I finally found a Tudor BBN rose logo ETA!!! On leather!!!! I was also able to secure a great discount on a 126333 white stick dial. I always preffer the TS Route, but this time I must say that I had a wonderful experience at an AD. White glove service, and even ordered my TT DJ straight from switzerland so it was never touched by human hands before mine! All in all its a great day and a pleasure to share with my fellow TRFers. Here are some photos!

So what have you traded your Rolex for, besides another watch???
I hope this thread catches some attention. I always think , but never have traded or bartered my watch, because I'm the sole owner of only 1 watch. Yep, I'm that guy. But, I always have wondered, what have you traded your watch for, BESIDES another watch? Possibly a car, or cycle, or real estate, or bartered for some work. They say Rolex's are as good as cash, so lets test the theory. Thanks..
