Citizen Campanolas On The Market! Grand Complication And Perpetual Calendar On eBay: Auctions end: Nov-25-07 19:00:00 PST
Two beautiful Citizen Campanola watches available on eBay now. Each a rarity and not often available in the US. I have discussed the Citizen Campanola line at great length on this site. You know of my affinity for them. I never thought I would love a quartz watch this much. The bottom line is that you can get an amazing level of complication and beauty for a price so far below what a comparable mechanical watch is that it makes Swiss watch producers stutter.The Grand Complication is my favorite of the two, and of the watches I have reviewed here as I own one! Check out my review of the Citizen Campanola Grand Complication here. It is the watch I am wearing as I write these words, and brings me continuing joy each time I gaze upon it. Forget the generous compliments I get on this large and attractive watch, it does just about everything you could ask for.The Citizen Campanola Perpetual Calendar model takes a different approach, with a full perpetual calendar and an indicator of the elap

Another Advantage of Owning An Omega - I Fly Under My Wife's Watch Radar . . .
. . . with only 6 watches in my collection, I have more watches than most, but a lot less than a "true" collector. Couple of Citizen Eco Drives, a couple of cheap (but reliable) Invicta Pro Divers, 1 Omega quartz Seamaster diver . . . and my new Aqua Terra. White face, blue markers. Just put on a Hadley leather strap for the winter. Looks awesome. Anyway . . . . We go over to our neighbor's house to watch football on Sunday. Our best friends. My neighbor is sporting his new Rolex Submariner that he got from his employer as a "thanks for the hard work this year bonus". Beautiful watch. Doesn't look (or act) much different from my Invicta 9937, but that's another thread.So he shows it to me and my wife and says - accurately - that's its $6000 watch. My wife wouldn't know a Seiko from a Psycho, but she sure as hell knows what ROLEX means. Same with my neighbor. So I'm ooohing and ahhhing over it and my wife says "yeah, he (meaning me) has some nice watches but I think I'd kill him i

Which One
I have a couple of Ryans; one with a refinished dial, the other with an original dial (or so I've been led to believe). As the images show, the refinished dial is silver whereas the original has a golden hue. Is this attributable to ageing/patina or is it correct for this model? Or is the refinished silver version correct? (It's not a trick of the light, the images are a good representation of the real colours).Refinished'Original'Vendor images, my watchesThanks, stales

I've been slimed by Archieluxury.
I've been personally attacked by self proclaimed watch expert ArchieLuxury and I don't know whether to take it as a complement or a criticism. Is the enemy of my enemy my friend ? I received a PM from my buddy and fellow member Nicko alerting me to the fact that ArchieLuxury did a video slamming my Panerai 341, using several stolen photos from my photo bucket account. The video is full of foul language so be careful if you choose to click on the link. He uses many of my photos of the watch but does not use my wrist shots, instead he chooses someone with a much smaller frame to emphasize the size of the piece. Also for some unknown reason he uses a photo from my account of 5 Pateks....not sure at all why it's in there.60mm Wrist Watch Craziness! When will the stupidity stop? Panerai Madness - YouTubeAt first I thought should I try and have this removed, should I sweat it at all, do I let him just continue to look like an idiot as his facts are his own, the Panerai Egiziano was first int
