Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Dive Watches
A few months ago while with Maurice Lacroix at their manufacture I spent time with them going over small details on the prototype versions of these new Pontos S dive watches. We looked at little things like the polishes on the rings around subsidiary chronograph dials, colors, strap choices and other details on the dials. Going from idea, to computer design, to final product is challenging and requires a very close attention to even the little things. What I can say is that the best watch brands have product leads people who are both smart and highly independent when it comes to asserting changes to even small visual elements.While I have yet to see the final versions, I like how the Pontos S fits in the Maurice Lacroix product line-up. It is a solid design that actually mixes retro and modern looks smoothly. It is like a futuristic version of a retro sport watch. The name of the watch is just Pontos S, but I think it would have been good for them to include "Dive" or "Diver" in the na

Hey Leo
Does Jake plan on finishing the T.Lloyd Walker pod cast series he started, or have we heard the last on this?

Online Purchases
Hello,I've just joined this forum after checking it out for several months. Due to $ issues last year, I was not able to purchase one or two Hamiltons I've been interested in. Fortunately, my situation has improved and I am now able to pull the trigger on another watch.Currently, I have two Hamilton's: a Khaki King Scuba and Jazzmaster Viewmatic. I purchased these at a rather large retailer that folded last year and was able to obtain good discounts. The Authorized Dealers near me are rather pricey and upscale. I'm not sure how much I could haggle with them since they have little competition. I'm interested in hearing of some experiences from other members concerning on-line dealers. I would also appreciate any references to sites that members can recommend. I know it is the policy to send such information via personal messages and not to post them in public forums. By the way, I'm really happy with both my Hamilton's. They run a little fast, but I think this is to be expected

ROC 39 mm vs ROC 41
Hello AP lovers. Almost a year has passed side the new ROC 41mm was introduced, what are your thoughts? Do owners of the 39mm feel they want a new 41? Better design? Has the 39mm lost value now that the 41mm are available or since they have been discontinued have they increased their value?

Christmas and I get ... "The Call"
Earlier today, over a burger lunch, I get a call from an unidentified number. As it turns out, it was from a contact in an AD, who informed me that my 114060 Submariner had arrived. What Sub? was the first thing to come into my head. After all, I was desperately looking for one some weeks back, and after much frantic searching, had to resort to my grey dealer to source for one (and he did me a solid for just $5 above retail!). Anyway, I apparently left my name and number down on a wait list some 7 months back and it was now my turn. So I did what any, responsible, hot blooded male would have done...
