Next year's Explorer IIanyone excited?
OK, so I am giving serious thought to the new SS Submariner. But at the same time, I'm asking myself about next year's orange hand Explorer II (which can be seen in this video - Video - TinyPic - H).Now, let me preface this by saying that I'm not looking to add to the number of stainless steel watches I own right now. But it's going to be tough not picking up one of these modern orange hand beauties. The new Sub is a much easier decision - sell my 16610, add a little cash, and it's a zero sum addition to the collection. But it will take a LOT of discipline to not add the new Exp. II next year. Maybe after it's been out a couple of years and can be had at a depreciated rate....hmmm....Anyone else excited about his one?

Decision made... And here it is!!!
I think this is the longest it has taken me to decide on a watch.I mean there are so many different options available and they are all great! So finally it came down to what suited my personality bestand I am glad I took the time to really decide on itSo here it is

First ever "luxury" watch - Omega Speedmaster Professional 3573.50 c. 1863
Hi everyone,I'm fairly new to the luxury watch world, as I became very interested in timepieces just this past summer. As I'm turning 21 and beginning a career I feel this is the perfect time to have picked up this hobby, as I feel that a watch says a lot about a person.After many hours of research, I decided on the Speedy Pro Sapphire Sandwich - I couldn't possibly think of using the hesalite crystal as a daily (although I know some disagree) and am also extremely fascinated by the view of the movement, so my choice was a natural one.I hope to soon learn how to remove the bracelet so that I can try on the Perforated Racing strap that I ordered with the watch (it's just sitting there, teasing me). The AD who sold me the watch promised to guide me through the process over the phone next week. I'm trying to learn by myself as I tend to be impatient with eagerness, but so far none of the online guides have me confident enough to try (all I have is a small screwdriver, which is what my AD

Watchmakers International recommendation
A few months back my 14060M Submariner was knocked off of my counter and the 7 O'Clock marker dislodged from the face. I contacted Rolex, and I thought the lead times of 12-16 weeks and cost for a replacement dial (they said they wouldn't repair the current dial and a mandatory service was non-negotiable) were a little unreasonable.I'm not very experienced with Rolex repairs nor am I a serious collector, so I came here for recommendations and Bod Ridley at Watchmakers International was sent over by a number of members.I contacted them, and their service was beyond excellent. After a phone call with Philip Ridley, I sent it in and had the watch back in 9 days with a new main spring, service, and repaired dial.I'm very grateful for their assistance getting the only watch I care about back on my wrist in a timely manner, and thought I would share the experience.
