As spring approaches, we check out new watches from Panerai, Bovet, Christophe Claret, F.P. Journe and many more. We also find out how time is kept and measured; pay a visit to Roger Smith on the Isle of Man; find out more about the story of one man¡¯s hunt for his grail watch; and get a rare sneak peek into the workshops of one of the biggest brands in the world, Rolex.1. Panerai Luminor 1950 PAM557 Destro 3 Days Watch Hands-On: A Lefty PAM372If you love watches from Panerai, the new PAM 557 Destro 3 Days Watch should be one to look out for. It is essentially a left-handed version of the earlier and extremely popular PAM 372, which I reviewed, and it was only announced this year at SIHH. Here¡¯s a quick look at this new highly anticipated watch.Source: watches-dealer2.

Question for the experts
Hello everyone! I had a question I needed some input on and figured no one would know better then the group of you.After graduating college I started a career in NYC about 6 months ago. I've been meaning to get a watch since I feel it's unprofessional to look at my cellphone during meetings, but I need help selecting the right one. I recently have become VERY fond for the Omega Speedmaster series, but obviously it's a pretty expensive watch, especially for someone my age. My questions are:1) what is a fair ballpark estimate of the price for a good-not-perfect used standard model Speedmaster?2) since the answer to 1 is likely more than I can afford, what are some other (cheaper) watches that have similar styling? I'm not looking for a fake/replica or even an "homage" necessarily but something that matches some of the features, especially:a) the black-on-black bezel/face;b) the Tachymeter bezel; andc) the chronograph/multi-dial aspect.Thanks for all your help!

Authenticity Advice Please
In an earlier post "Advice Please" I requested help to determine if the sale price on the watch below seemed fair. A helpful chap named Adam advised me to request pictures of the movement and inside back case which I've now done, see link below.Can anyone advise if this watch appears authentic and, if you feel you are able, if the sale price of ¡ê2577 seems fair.RegardsAudemars Piguet Square Oro Giallo Manuale art. Ap48, it's 18ct gold, manual winding, circa 1990, sold in "mint" condition, with original leather strap.Watch by hoggy57 | Photobucket
