Three On Three: Comparing The Patek Philippe 5170G, The Vacheron Constantin Harmony Chronograph, And
There is something special about a hand-finished, manually wound, in-house chronograph. It is a category that houses so many of the timepieces to which so many of us aspire to own – and today we will compare three of the very best available in the world today. This original HODINKEE Three On Three pits heavyweight contenders from A. Lange & Söhne, Vacheron Constantin, and Patek Philippe against one another in several categories: design, finishing, wearability, and collectibility. The thing about this comparison is, quite simply, there is no wrong choice – we purposefully selected the finest manually wound chronographs we could think of – all priced similarly – to be able to highlight each watch's strengths and weakness, of which there are many.Have a look at our video first and then read on for the details of these three incredible timepieces. The History Of The In-House, Manually Wound Chronograph The first thing that one must underst

Question on a SD 93160 bracelet
I have the oportunity to purchase a 16610 that it is already fitted with a SD 93160, from the pics it looks really good, however wearing it could be something else, anyone knows if it is a potential issue with this match? Additionally, since this is not the original 16610 bracelet , would detract from the watch value?

$1.00 Garage Sale Find!!!!
I was on my way back from the Post Office after shipping some watch books to PA and near home I saw a sign for a garage sale.I pulled in and looked.....In a box, never worn, still in the plastic, a Casio quartz 100M Divers watch with the wet suit extension. It was DOA so I asked the guy how much? He said a buck, one dollar! So I bought it.Came home opened it up put a battery in it and VOILA....it runs.This will be a great watch for banging around the yard or going to the flea markets and not having any "flash" on to make the sellers up the price. LOLIMO, not a bad buy.Any ideas as to how old this might be? What it cost new? Thanks!

Hard choice - 5960R 5140J or 5139G
Hi everyone, I would like to say that while this is my first post on this forum, I have always been reading all the contributions from all the so-knowledgeable people here. It is always a pleasure to see how much passion and knowledge is in this forum and the fact that a Patek is not a discussion as an investment (God forbid!) but rather as a second (or third or fourth) wife!I would like your opinions on the above 3 watches which my AD has offered to me. I personally like the 5139G but has an inclination towards the newer 5960R for a more modern look. The 5140J is also a beautiful watch in my opinion. Generally speaking, I actually prefer my watches to be in white gold or platinum as I tend to wear my watches on a daily basis rather than to keep them locked up. A rose gold watch is more dressy and, I think, more suitable for the occasional wear. The 5960P is not available here.Of these 3 watches, in terms of availability, which one is the volume seller? I was told the 5960R as this is

Softening Croc strap
Hi all, Recently bought a navi world, pic below. First breitling, and the cricket straps are very thick. How much wear does it take to soften, and fit the wrist better? Feels very stiff at the moment.
