BREITING launches new website
Breitling's new 2010 website has launched!! It still has the same overall look, but it's been greatly improved (IMO) by adding all the navigation links to the left of the screen. You can also navigate those links without changing screens. It's now easier to get to the maintenance & retail locator's, as well as the model information. All new models have had their technical details added as well.They've added more information to many of the models, and have added a Configurator application. This cool tool allows you to select the model you want, then select from all the available dials, bracelets and straps and shows you the completed watch picture. What's even more, you can email the picture & details to yourself (or anyone else) which you can use to take into any AD to get that exact watch.. No more trying to explain what you want to the dealer. Now you can show them! Good job Breitling!! The new website is: breitlingFor a short demo movie on using the Configurator appl

Hamilton of the Day: Cushion
926 DescriptionThe Cushion - EngravedThe Cushion Engraved did not appear in any Hamilton Catalogs as there were only 91 produced in total._____________________________Production Date: 1926Price When New: $55.00 (estimate)Case: 14K White Gold-filledCase Manufacturer: WadsworthProduction for this Variation: 36 (14K solid White - 6, 14K solid Green - 21; 14K White Gold-filled - 36, 14K Green Gold-filled - 28)Movement: 987 - 17-jewel Movement___________________________Comments: This very rare Cushion Engraved is the only one known to exist. It is interesting to note that the engraving is on the center case and not on the bezel. Later "Plain" and "Engraved" model variations were designated depending on if the bezel was "plain" or "engraved." There are no known Hamilton Cushion's with engraved bezels.It is interesting to note that the "four petal flower" engraving located on this example is unlike any other engraving Hamilton used - typically, engravings were in the form of leafs, vines o

Sub C and Royal Oak
I wanted to get some feedback from other members:I own a Sub C that I wear daily, and it's my only nice watch. I have some extra cash and I'm looking at either adding a PAM, or selling/trading the sub for a AP Royal Oak (love this watch). Because I'm not really interested in starting a real collection, and I like the idea of having one really good piece that I can wear daily and for years and years¡­ I'm considering the upgrade to the Royal Oak.I realize the AP is in a different horological category than the sub. I love the look and feel of the AP on my wrist (only at an AD so far however), and I could definitely see wearing a 15400 or 15300 daily for a long time. I can see it replacing the sub on my wrist.My question is about the feasibility of the AP as a daily wearer. In terms of robustness, water-resistance, fragility. I know it's not as bulletproof as a sub, but it looks and feels like I wouldn't have any problems wearing it the same way. I work at a desk, I don't dive, and I hardl

First patek.. Which one?
If I were to get a patek, which one should I go for? Below r some pictures I took while trying on the watch.

Intriguing AD visit
I was at the mall today with some time to kill and decided to stop by the local AD to try on a 233 (again), since I've been lusting for one ever since I sold my 422, after finally admitting that it wore too large for my liking and was being left at the watch box without getting much use.Well, they didn't have a 233 in the store, which was a bummer, but I got to try on a 533, which I didn't like as much as the 233. I missed the dome crystal and the thinner profile of the 233, although it was nice to have the 9 numeral on the dial of the 533.Then, when I was getting ready to leave, something caught my eye in the watch box, and I asked to try it on. It was a 425 (47mm Rad with SLC dial), and wow! I thought it was amazing!I had never given Radiomir models much thought, but this piece seemed much easier to wear than my 422. The absence of the crown protecting mecanism of the luminor cases, added to the slimmer profile of the hand wind caliber and the sleekness of the wire lugs made this 47m
