Linde Werdelin Land Instrument II - The Rock
Computer technology, unlike wrist watch technology, has no choice but to be upgraded continuously. So here is the upgraded Land Instrument from Linde Werdelin. What is it you may ask (for those uninitiated)? In a nutshell, it is a sensor-based device that gives you lots of important information using data collected from an internal compass, barometer, altimeter, inclination meter, and separate (but wirelessly connected thermometer). It also has an optional wireless heart rate monitor that straps around your chest. Using all this information in conjunction with the native ability to process it and store it - gives you an instrument, the Land Instrument II to be exact (now called "The Rock"). Along with that, there are basic functions including alarms, stopwatches, the time, and lots of logging capabilities. The Rock now also features that ability to connect with a GPS device. For a good idea of the functions of a Linde Werdelin Land Instrument, read my review here.Technical Specificatio

2054.50 vs the Black Bond non LE
I as I have said before, I am new here and don't own an Omega yet, but I am close to pulling the trigger on one soon. I had pretty much narrowed it down to the 2054.50, until the other day.I am lucky enough to have two ADs in my area and I tried on a 2054.50 and loved it. Then the next day I tried on a 212.30.41.20.01.002, or the Black Bond non LE. It was beautiful, gorgeous, stunning. I especially liked the back of the 212.30.41.20.01.002.My question is this, is it really worth more than $1000 more for the Black Bond. Is the Co-Axial movement really worth the extra cash? I do understand that the Co-Ax can go for ten years without service while the 1120 movement should be serviced every five years, but really, it would be fifteen years before I realized any savings.Any thoughts?

An amazing AP Tour !!
I was planning a vacation to Florida and wanting to look at some AP's but couldn't find a dealer. I decided to call the service center. Well, long story short, after a phone call and a few emails, I was set up with a tour at the AP Service center in Clearwater. The tour was so enjoyable I wanted to share a little with my forum friends, so here goes:The entrance is very nondescript with some large beautiful trees out front. To give size perspective that is my Toyota LandCruiser dwarfed by the trees. 1.JPG 2.JPGWalking up to the door, I was wondering if I was even at the correct building until I saw the large AP etched in the doors. I was let in by a security guard and led to a waiting area with some nice reading material. Wish I had more time to read but they were very prompt.3.JPG 3.5.JPGI was introduced to a few people and met my tour guide (straight from Switzerland). I was even given a AP labcoat to wear.4.JPGThe first thing done when they receive a watch is take a high def video

Are the 5170g white and black models discontinued?
They are no longer listed on Patek's website. If so, I'm glad I got the black dial g w/ Breguet numerals :)
