Omega Constellation Caballeros

Good news for 2531.80 owners!!!
Today I ventured into town. I had some cash (not much) burning a hole in my pocket and a watch purchase was required. I bought a rather good hardback book entitled 1001 Wristwatches 1923 - Present. Good pictures. Any way, I walked over to the pawnbrokers window where there are always countless numbers of Rolex's then I spied a Seamaster Pro 2531.80. It was in need of a good spruce up as it seemed a bit tatty.The ticket however said Valued at ?1750, Sale Price ?1250 OMG!!! The watch I bought a year and a half ago for ?1200 is now worth ?1750. Maybe in another years time it may be worth enough to trade in for a PO Chrono. Or in ten years, a Speedy Missions Collection case!!!Or could the pawnbroker have mistaken the 2531.80 for the 2220.80?And yes, I did buy a new watch.

New here Hi everybody!
HI!!!!My name is Ryan and I like Rolex. Sounds like a confession doesn't it? :)I guess I should introduce myself.I'm a college graduate that is applying to serve with Habitat for Humanity's AmeriCorps program for a year. I've always been passionate bout Habitat for Humanity and this is a way to give back.I got "in to watches" sort of by accident. My grandfather wore a TT DJ for many years and when he passed, my dad got it. My dad wears it occasionally to church. So that's how I heard of Rolex and started researching the brand and its history.Despite being a member of more than one watch forum however, I don't consider myself a WIS. A watch is a tool, pure and simple. But there is nothing wrong with having a really cool tool. :) I don't see myself having a big collection, just one really nice watch will do me just fine. I'm young, so buying isn't on my mind yet. Paying off my college education is. But when that time comes I'm interested in GMTs and Subs. Aren't we all?One more item of n

Ladies Oris Big Crown Diver - Can you guess its movement?
Does anyone know what movement is inside this watch?(oh Hi , I am new here....just sitting and waiting for my first Oris...impatiently, I might add)

Weird but real question?
2 Mig Clocks(NOS) and 2 Russian Navy Clocks( heavy Aluminum Wall clock, Fusee Chronometer). All bought on the Bay and all from Russia of different locations(purchased over 7 years ago so forgot from where).Saw something on Chernobyl today and though crap! Do I need a Geiger meter to determine the safety of my Clocks? Who knows where it really came from.

Paul Newman Ltd Edition 1957 Panda Dial
So the Paul Newman reference is a headline grabber but I thought I'd share some pics of my latest find...It's a Japanese market only Ltd Edition Speedmaster Date reference 323.30.40.40.02.001Saw this little beauty and couldn't pass up the opportunity to grab it. A limited edition to 2009 pieces only and this one was NOS in the box. Despite being a safe queen, after a full wind and a few days of running, it is within COSC at -1.8/day which is pretty amazing I think.I love the Panda Dial on this one. In bright light it's almost pure white, but in subdued indoor lighting the dial takes on the appearance of a beautiful creamy colour.I'd never seen one of these before this one and this was one of those rare examples we sometimes come across where the decision to pull the trigger and buy it needed little to no thought.It's a 40mm case and wears a little small compared to the usual watches in my rotation, but still looks great on my 7 wrist.I'm not usually a fan of chronometers but the speedy
