Hublot F1 King Power Suzuka Watch
Since the Hublot F1 King Power as a watch is not new I will not going into detail about the technicalities. This is a new limited edition of 250 pieces (like all of them) for Japan's Suzuka race track released recently at 2011 Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix. It has a cool skeletonized dial and ceramic disc brake-style bezel. The case is 48mm wide in zirconium (a lot like titanium). The neatest part are the predominantly white and red colors meant as an homage to the Japanese rising sun flag.

Packed and ready

Has My new speedy got a proble?
Hi. I hope somebody reading this can enlighten me a little. My new Speedmaster that I picked up a week ago which has the 9300 movement fitted seems to have a stiff rotor, it seems to revolve in quarter revolutions and the stop, then I turn the watch a little more and is revolves another quarter turn etc. It seems not to revolve so freely as my other Omegas (with see through backs) and the 3313 movement fitted they really spin around. There is also a little noise when it spins around. but again the Cal 3313 does not have this. It is keeping good time though. Is this how this new movement is or should I take it back for Omega to look at. I have waited so long for this watch I am reluctant to lose it for a month or so if there is nothing to worry about . Thanks guys. Alan

Are diamonds in vintage dealer add-on bezels larger?
First, hats off to Crown Collection for his consistently great contributions, furthering our collective knowledge on some arcane topics.In his thread in the reference section about authenticating diamond bezels, he discusses the diamond bezels that Rolex dealers stocked to up-sell customers. Specifically,18000 series men¡¯s day- date ¨C 44 brilliants set in yellow gold (part code MBZ4488)44 brilliants set in platinum (part code MBZ4466). 46 brilliants set in white gold (part code MBZ4690)My question is, did these bezels have larger stones than the standard factory bezels (that would have come on a 18348 for example)? Or, in the case of the white metal bezels on YG watches, is it just an optical illusion that the diamonds are larger?Thank you.
