Sporty German Diver: Limes 1 Tausend GMT Diving Watch Available Right Now
A while ago I mentioned the new Limes Endurance 1 Tausend Diver watch that was due for release soon. The watch had a wonderful Germanic utility feel to it, and I looked forward to seeing one. The Endurance was a deviation on the existing Limes 1 Tausend (one thousand, as in the depth rating), which is pictured here.This particular watch has an automatic ETA 2893-2 movement, that includes the GMT complication. The dedicated GMT 24 hour hand is nicely done with a large red arrow providing nice visibility, without being too distracting. Actually, this is one of the clearest GMT diving watches I have seen.Limes, like Sinn is a maker of high quality, but aggressively prices German "sport" watches. One thing that makes Limes a bit unique is the fact that they make all their own cases. Most smaller watches companies essentially source most of their parts. This is not a problem, but Limes takes great pride in constructing well-made cases fit for their watches.Although 1000 meter watches are be

Portuguese 500107 and Pilot's Mark XVI 325501....Accuracy?
I am new to this forum and have enjoyed browsing it today. Lots of good infor by very smart people. I have a dilemma. I am considering buying a Portuguese Automatic 7 Day watch and a Pilots Mark XVI. I was all set to pull the trigger on both of these watches but I am now concerned about the accuracy of the the Portuguese watch. I have a number of automatic watches including a Patek 5045, JLC Reverso, Omega Seamaster to name a few. I can deal with the inherent inaccuracies of automatic watches to a certain limit. I am concerned with the accuracy of the inhouse movement of the Portuguese. How bad is it? I have been reading that it can be as bad as 3-4 minutes per week. That is probably too much for me to take. I am now rethinking spending 9K on this watch. Is the ETA mvmt of the Pilot's watch more accurate? Maybe I should consider the Big Pilots watch too? I am now very confuse and I am looking for some direction and other thoughts on the matter.Thanks for your help.Constantine

What is the ultimate, iconic movie watch?
I like movies, and I love watches! There have been numerous occasions where the two have combined superbly. So my question is this : what do you think is the most iconic movie watch of all time? James Bond has had several, including the Rolex Submariner and of course some OMEGA's. And then there's Jason Bourne's TAG Link, Rambo's Panerai, and who could forget Steve McQueen's Heuer Monaco.But for you, which movie watch really stole the show?

Would anyone trade in a 359 & 112 for a 233
I promise this is the last question from me on Panerai (for now ) My dealer has proposed an option I did not even think about. I have the oportunity to swap my 359 and 112 back to him for a 233, an almost straight trade (with perhaps a bit of cash from me to him but not much). 233 pros:It's a 233 359 / 112 pros :It's two watches,Love the 359 only features (dirty dial, full arabic numerals, fully polished in the 1950 case.),Love the 112 uncomplicated simplicity that is the opposit of the 359.Cons:Not sure I really love the 233 dial, it looks very intense in comparison to a 112 or even a 359.One expensive watch to have - servicing, fear of damage , theft etc.A real food for thought moment I suppose. The 292 Ceramica I was after is now not going to happen.
