Hands-On: Some Quick Thoughts On The New Rolex Air-King Versus The New Explorer (Live Pics, Official
The most interesting, or I should say curious, introduction from Rolex this year is the Air King reference 116900. First, I never really expected to see an Air-King at all ever again after the new Oyster Perpetual was brought out last year, but here it is. And on top of that, the Air-King is back in, frankly, a semi-foreign form as a 40 mm, anti-magnetic aviator's watch with a multi-color logo. We'll get to that, so let's first talk about the brand new Explorer, which is a really similar watch, also introduced this year, that, in my opinion, will be often compared to the new Air-King. The Rolex Explorer Reference 214270 1 OF 4 The new Explorer features new luminous applications and longer, wider hands for better legibility. So the new Explorer reference 214270, as introduced here on HODINKEE last week, is very much the same as the outgoing iteration of the same reference with its Oyster Perpetual case at 39 mm, 100-meter water resistance, and in-house caliber

Collecting 6/0 Waltham movements (including an American pointer date movement).
The hunter style model 1942 was the third 6/0 sized series of movements made by Waltham It was produced after the hunter style 1898 and the open face style 1912 models which had been in production for over 15 years. I don't really understand the 1942 designation as production started in 1934. The last 1942s were produced in 1950.This is the movement that got me started. It’s the Waltham 6/0 ‘42 that was made during WWII for A-11 spec military watches. They are 16 jewel movements with the center second complication and hacking function.Then I found later versions of the center second movement.The 6/0 B with 16 jewels.The 6/0 C with 16 jewels.And the 6/0 D which added a 17th jewel at the top of the center wheel.At the same time, Waltham produced a matching series of movements with the more common sub seconds configuration. The only thing of note is the higher jewel count for each corresponding model.I have examples of the 6/0 B with 17 jewels.The 6/0 C with 17 jewels.And fi

15300 conversion kit
Hi everibodyI love the ss bracelet of my white 15300st but im thinking about to give an opportunity to the leather straps and thats the cause of my question. Is there any other conversion kit like the one of apbands?Sorry for my englishGreetings from SpainSam

Anyone have side by side shots of 15300 vs 15400?
This seems like a hot button topic as of late and I am quite torn between the two models and apparently am not alone :)

GP, why so much love?
There is similar tread (by Mike) about RB2, but I want to ask why there are so much love for GP? I am talking mostly about FC version hereI never had a change to see one other than on pictures so just as with RB2 its hard to spend so much money on a watch without trying it on first. I couldn't find anyone who has one on my recent travels. I am looking to add RG and SS 44 mm to my collection, let me know why would you go for GP over new 44 mm ROO. If any members here have one, please post wrist shots, opinions
