Seiko Premier Kinetic Silver Dial Brown Leather Men's Watch SRG013

Went to the AD today
While I didn't come out with anything (but their business card), I did get a chance to try on what I hope is my next major purchase. A GMT IIc in SS. All I can say is, It was Buttah, just like Buttah (LOL). The super case was nice, and the bracelet's clasp was very nice compared to the standard clasp on my Air-King. It's gonna be a hard choice between the GMT and the new Submariner. They said it was going to be a while before they got a ceramic Sub in. So for now I am saving my penny's for the GMT.

Review: My Sinn 857
pic from watchbuys:Five weeks ago, my Sinn 857 arrived. I attended a GTG a few months back and met online icons like Idle Swede and many others. And I met my first Sinn that day, several in fact.Fast forward and I am shopping for a durable pilot's watch with classic looks. I looked at several, and the finals come down to a Sinn 856 or 857.Recognizing that I didn't have a single watch with a Bezel, and the fact that this watch kept speaking to me, I went for the 857 as soon as the govt told me they were sending me some extra money (or should I say, sending me some of my money back;)Below is my review of my Sinn 857.Case/Bezel/Crown: Made of tegimented steel, it is hardened to 1200 vickers, said to be 6 times harder than 316L. It is supposed to be virtually scratch proof, and I hope it will be. The case is not shiney at all, but more of a sweet MATTE grey. Fit and finish is near flawless.The screw in crown is as smooth as it gets, and the bi-directional bezel lines up perfectly, t

AP as daily driver?? Why not?
I read a lot of comments on here from people saying that they would not have an AP for their daily watch. I see it a lot for Royal Oaks (which I am particularly interested). Is this solely based on the fact that the finishes are so perfectly executed and the bezels are subject to being easily scratched? I mean if you didn¡¯t care how much the watch got scratched would you still not use it daily? I guess I am just trying to figure out the basis of this statement. I have a Sub-C. I wear it everywhere and anywhere not worrying about scratches. I want a ROO Diver. I have gotten advice in the past on here telling me to keep the Sub cause I wouldn¡¯t want to use the AP daily¡­then what is the point??Does anyone wear their AP RO all day, everyday? Anyone have pics of a daily worn AP¡­scratches and all???
