Omega SEAMASTER AUTOMATIC DAY DATE WATCH

Rebellion T-1000 Gotham Watch
In debuting the Gotham versions of the T-1000 watches, Rebellion playfully warns to "lock up your daughters." I am not 100% sure what that means, but apparently this watch that looks like a part that fell off of a Transformer is out to get your girls. Mixing a range of science-fiction and comic book themes into one, the Rebellion T-1000 is a combo of un-focused culture masculinity, and the world's longest power reserve mechanical movement.When the T-1000 came out a few years ago it boasted the world's longest power reserve at 1000 hours. You can see?how far they have come with the design of the watch since the original. That is over 40 days of power, and beats the A. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 and the Jacob & Co. Quenttin.

Raleigh - Green Gold?
Just picked up this Raliegh Engraved over the weekend:I have a question regarding the case colors. According to the Vintagewatch.info website, these watches were avaliable in both green and yellow gold filled. I've not been able to find a good picture of a green gold filled version.

Please note that my lighting scheme isn't very good and all the pictures I take seem to be on the yellowish side.A seller's picture of the back. The color is more accurate to real life:So how does one tell the difference between green and yellow gold? One of the problems I've encountered is that while digital photography on the internet is wonderful, color palettes can be very misleading.Here is the Yellow Raleigh page from Vintagewatch.info:vintagewatch.info/Detail%...-%20Yellow.htmIf this example is a green gold one, are they considered more desirable than yellow gold? Thanks in advance for any help,gatorcpa

Incoming - Vintage Zenith!
Been a while since I posted about an incoming - but I think it was worth the wait. There was a post a while back where Dennis was talking about watches and your "birth year". Well, that year is 1969 for me (and the Omega Speedmaster "Moonwatch" is a bit out of my range). So, I periodically do a search for '69 watches in various places and ran across a beautiful Zenith.The following pictures are the seller's:We'll start with the tease - an original signed buckle, and could that be the original box and hang tag?Original signed crown...Working movement...Original (untouched?) dial...Yep - box, papers, and original hang tag even (new strap)...Looks to be in excellent shape - slight blemish on the crystal - we'll have to wait and see on that...I'm pretty excited - a little research shows that the case had been personalized and was buffed out. We'll have to see how that looks in person. But, all in all, a very nice timepiece.If anyone can point me to information on the specific model,

Need some thoughts on how this looks on my wrist. PO 45.5mm
What do you guys think? I like big watches (I have 44mm PAM) but wondering what other's think just because I want feedback.Thoughts? Much appreciated.

A visit to DavidSW this morning....
resulted in this:Only a few hours on the wrist, but so far I find it to be extremely comfortable and legible. It's a stunning piece and it's hard to stop looking at it. To those of you who offered insight on the 5712 in my previous thread, I thank you.
