Speedy 3222.80 question
What is the thickness, crystal to caseback? What does the caseback look like? Getting ready to attempt to trade my 2225.80 for a 3222.80.

How much should value matter? (a bit long)
Hi all, I have a more philosophical question for you:My watch adventure started when I salvaged a barely working wittnauer that I had from my grandfather, and had it restored for my wedding. Of course the restoration was a bit more than the watch is worth. Next I found a vintage Omega at an antique shop for a very good price, wore it for a year, then had it serviced. It came out beautiful, but including the original purchase price it I probably paid a bit more into it than I can sell it for (though as an aside I am amazed at the differing prices amongst different internet companies for similar watches)Next came my everyday watch--the slightly use Rolex Submariner. This one is modern, and Rolex does not seem to have issues with value.Now I just dug out another "family watch". A well worn 1942 bulova talk watch. It does not run, the case has some brassing, and the dial has it's share of patina. This is a watch you can probably by all day for 150$, but I am once again thinking of

watches and animals
How about the ones who have pets or whatever exotix animals show us some pics, with the watches ofc!? I'll start with my cat!:cat.jpg

Eating at Five Guys is not just bad for your waistline
So this past weekend against my better judgement I decide to stop in to the local Five Guys to indulge in a burger for lunch. All is good until I leave and the door which was clearly set with too much tension decides to smack back on me while exiting and naturally has to wack my AP Diver. I don't baby my watches as can be seen from the other small marks on the watch but I nearly cried when I saw the damage near the bezel screw at 1 o'clock. Not to minimize the love for my AP Diver vs another watch BUT I had my PP Aquanaut 5167 in my hand that morning and I decided on wearing the Diver instead. Marks like this are never good on ANY watch but the door probably would have completely ruined the Aquanaut. I think this mark is going to drive me nuts so the watch will likely go to Clearwater much earlier than it would have normally.

Some questions about a rose gold speedster
I recently was given my fathers rose gold omega speedster broad arrow. I have absolutely no interest in selling it, as I am in love with it and it was a gift from my father. It is in incredible condition, on the original leather omega strap with 18k deployment clasp. I was just curious how much a watch like this would be worth, and where a good place to get it serviced in the future would be. Thanks!
