10 Things To Know About How Rolex Makes Watches
Rolex really isn't like any other watch brand. In fact, the privately held, independently run entity isn't like most other companies. I can say this now with a lot more clarity than most people because I was there. Rolex rarely allows anyone into its hallowed halls, but I was invited to visit their four manufacture locations in Switzerland and experience first-hand how Rolex makes their famous watches.Rolex is a universe of its own: respected; admired; valued; and known across the globe. Sometimes I sit back and think about all that Rolex is and does and find it hard to believe that at the end of the day, they just make watches. Rolex does just make watches and their timepieces have taken on a role beyond that of mere timekeeper. Having said that, the reason a "Rolex is a Rolex" is because they are good watches and tell pretty good time. It's taken me over a decade to fully appreciate the brand, and it will probably take longer before I learn everything I'd like to know about them.The

When You Must Travel With Lots Of Watches And Have Servants, Piaget Is There For You With the Collector's Trunk
I had an opportunity to experience these watch trunks from Piaget a few months ago while some Piaget representatives where in San Francisco at a watch show. I was impressed that the company had these enormous custom made watch cases fit for a passenger on the Titanic. What I didn't know was that enough people would declare "I want one," sufficient for Piaget to go out and produce enough of them for sale to the semi-public. Well here you have it, the Piaget Collector's Trunk is surely kit for a king, or any other manner of royalty (price to correspond).These are very high quality watch cases, that you can travel with. Inside each closing trunk is room for 51 watches, complete with various display modules, watch winders, drawers, mirrors, and other features for the distinguished watch fetishist. Frankly, I'd love one of these trunks, but it will probably cost several times the value of a new luxury car. Piaget themselves only commissions the watch trunks. The actual manufacturer is the e

what would you do
For fun lets say you have this boss who is a complete jerk in fact he could careless about you or his other employes than one day he comes too you and say's, I have $100,000 dollars to spend on some new watches and he say's he want one pilots watch, one diver's watch, one dress watch and oneI don't know lets say a Lt Ed watch. Now here's what you can do, One you can take the money and buy the watches, Two take the money and run for the hills hoping he'll will never find out, OR three tell him off. Now since I don'twork even if I did because I'm on disability I hope I spelt that right anyway I would tell him off then take the money.:D

Thanks guys, 27days and counting at + or - 0 zero seconds
I have been keeping track of my new Planet Oceans accuracy with a detailed log of its accuracy. On the wrist and off of the wrist resting positions have been noted. So far I am still at + or - 0 (Zero) seconds in 26 days and countingI This accuracy in unprecedented with any automatics I have ever owned or come across. My PO has beaten my Tag Heuer quartz 3 times now. (Tag seems to gain .50 seconds in 7 days) I have been tracking it with the official time sites noted at the bottom. From what I have noted so far. My watch gains about 1/8th to 1/4 a second all day on my wrist. It loses the same with a face-up resting position at night. When I bought the my new Planet Ocean I would have been happy with + or - 3 seconds in 24hrs. I would have been ecstatic with + or - 1.5-2.0 seconds in 24hrs. At this point I am giddy beyond belief.tycho.usno.navy.mil/simpletime.htmlandtime.gov/timezone.cgi?Eastern/d/-5/java

Upgrade Explorer to Date Adjust?
Hi,I've had my Explorer for about 18 months now and absolutely love it.I wanted a plain looking Rolex without a date.BUT i find myself looking at the watch for the date every now and then, so I'm thinking about upgrading to a Date Adjust with a Black face, so it sort of looks like an Explorer without the hands and numbers on the dial.I've noticed there are several different sizes. The explorer is 39mm, the larger date adjust is 41mm.Do you think I'll notice much difference and secondly will a Rolex dealer do a part exchange?I'm UK based.Many thanks.
