Movado Bold Yellow Gold Ion Plated Stainless Steel Unisex Watch 3600104

So I finally tried on the Deep Sea at my AD...
I was bored while at the mall with my family last weekend and sheepishly stopped into my AD to see if they had a Deep Sea. They said they did, in the back, in the safe. I said, "No problem, I'll come back one day when it's just sitting gathering dust in the case". They said "WAIT"! They got the manager to unlock the safe even as I protested that I was merely looking and was simply curious as heck what this new watch looked like in person, on my wrist. They said no problem, to please wait, and then she finally got the watch out.Pic from the "Men's Watch Review"It looked demure and normal looking sitting there on the counter on their velvet tray. It didn't look shockingly big but merely beautiful. Then, I put it on my wrist my impression changed 100%. It was like having a very large chunk of metal built up around a watch sitting on my puny wrist. I was blown away how thick it was in person. It seemed like a caricature of a SD, bulbuous and huge and I just laughed. I re

Help! AP with ceramic bezel and monochromatic?
I'm looking for an AP (probly chrono) in 41-44 but leaning towards smaller as my wrist is 6.75. Want it to have ceramic bezel if possible and only one color scheme. I don't like the color red,green,blue,orange etc. when it shows up as accents such as on the hands and yes the red daytona irritates me too. But i do like the all brown theme safari 24670, blue theme, grey theme etc because no accents (are these my best options)?. I also like the 15710st all black. Neither have ceramic bezel but they are all one color which is most important. Any suggestions appreciated...i think all the 44s are accented and seem to be the only ones with ceramic bezel so you can see how this is irritating for me. Unless there is some 42 special edition I don't know of with ceramic bezel and one color scheme. I also very much like the 26320 royal oak chrono but the lack of an in house movement with display back irritates me too. I think if they gave the 26320st a ceramic bezel and in house chrono with displa

My AP Diver died!
My 1 year AP Diver died.Im running with it, i kept running at looking at the watch. I think to myself:i have been running for a long time, but why its only 10 minutes Im so tired but I keep running.After several time I realized the watch has died! I wind it and its still not working. I have many watches like rolex or the ETA tag heuer, they never had any problem with it.Its still under warranty, Im going to service it soon, I hope its free.Im thinking why the high brand and expensive watches like AP can be died by only 1 year of using it? while the cheaper brand with ETA movement doesnt have any problems.Does AP watch should not be used while running?To break the rules you must first master them!

2007 Omega Seamaster Professional Chrono
Hey guys,I've been hunting for the right Rolex sub and went to a place to try one on. They wanted $7K for a 1983...a little out of my league.Anyway, went across the street to an antique shop, and there's a jeweler associated with them next door. I saw an Omega and asked to check it out.Here's the story:The owner's dad (also owner at the shop) bought it from a trusted source who bought it new from a famous jeweler in town. No Papers.Band has 1610/930 on it and end links, as well as 8,07X,XXX.2007 Omega Seamaster Professional Chronometer 300m/1000ft $1895.What do you think? I haven't studied Omegas, but I know they are great watches. I may end up with one and wait a while for my Red Sub!

Practical advice appreciated.
ChapsI have acquired 5 Rolex over the last 3 years and the honest truth is that I would like to finish off the collection with a Patek Philippe.I am currently attracted to the 5396G purely on appearance and also I want to go down the annual / perpetual calendar route and this brings me to my main question. Also please bear in mind that my technical knowledge of PP is below average.The question is - Are there any practical differences in owning either a perpetual or annual calendar watch. For instance is there much difference in setting up the time / date etc between the two and also are there different maintenance issues. Also any are there any pros and cons of owning either of these. Also is there any problems with buying the older models ?Due to my lack of knowledge I will probably buy from an established retailer but any advice on this would be appreciated. I am, incidentally, based in the UK.RegardsMick
