Tag Heuer Carrera Automatic Anthracite Dial Brown Leather Men's Watch WAR215EFC6336

Just Landed: Hamilton Khaki Field 42mm . . .
. . . a few months ago, I bought a Hammy Khaki King Scuba on a whim. While I loved the fit and value, it was a "tweener" watch to me: too dressy for the pool, too casual for a suit (and I wear suits to work). So I flipped it to a happy buyer. But I loved the Khaki line, so . . . I jumped on a Khaki Field the other day. Could not be happier. This thing has the smoothest sweep of any of my watches. Goes great with a suit or casual. Will spring for a tan strap eventually.At 42mm, it's at about my size limit. But it's got a low profile and nicely angled lugs, so it wears a bit smaller and the fit is great. Wish Hamilton would shorten their lugs a couple of mm for bony-wristed dudes like me (even the 40mm Khaki King was long in the lugs) , but not a huge deal. I've bought (and sold) everything from Omega to Oris to Invicta. But I'm coming to the conclusion that Hamilton gives the best value for the dollar of just about anything out there. I'm a fan.

Orbita Sparta 1 Deluxe Versus Sparta 1 Open
Hi All,I'm new to this particular forum, but I'm really liking what I'm seeing! I've been doing a fair amount of research, as I'm looking for a single watch winder for my TAG Heuer Targa Florio. I have my choice narrowed down to either the Orbita Sparta 1 Deluxe or the Sparta 1 Open. For me I am most concerned about noise level, as opposed to looks.The reason why is that the winder will be in my bedroom in an armoire. Is the Open quiet enough, or do I need the added case of the Deluxe to make it more silent? Or is the case simply overkill to an already silent winder? I haven't been able to really find any comments one way or the other.Any comments you can offer are greatly appreciated!

MASCOT pics
Lime has the Mascot!!!If anyone had been following my thread over in the community forum, you'll recall that I have been on vacation with my family at Myrtle Beach South Carolina for the past week. Ulackfocus had sent me a notice that the mascot was on it's way to my house, and I was excited to return home from the week long laziness.I was under the impression that the mascot get to do tour of duty at each members home area, but IF I had the mascot, it would've went on the trip with us.ARRGGGH, still a freaking traffic jamwe're trying to get to Wytheville, Virginia, except the traffic merging onto I81 (or I80?) is creeping alomg very very very slowlyso the 11 hour drive home took 16hrs, we left South Carolina at 8:30am Saturday,and got to Dayton, Ohio at 12:30am Sunday morning. Very frustrating. But the Mascot was here waiting on me. so the task this afternoon was to snap some pictures, try to get 'em uploaded before having to report to my night job at 5:30pm Sunday - We missed our do

5711 vs 15300 blue dials
Does anyone have both an ap 15300 and pp 5711 (both with blue dials) that they could post side by side pics of? I've tried on white/silver dial versions of each at my ad, but it's been months now and neither have had a blue dial come in. I'm thinking of buying from the sales forum here, but was hoping for a side by side comparison. I've found numerous pictures of them individually on line, but the different lighting and angles make them impossible to compare.
