Just Arrived: Lord Elgin Celestial
Back from the watchmaker with a new crystal, a new crown and stem, and a new hairspring. The watch case is 14K white gold filled. The movement is Elgin's 23 jewel manual wind mechanism. It is adjusted to 6 positions. The watch cleaned up very well and the case back just shows a bit of wear, but looks surprisingly nice. It cleaned up very wellThe watched shipped with a 14K white gold capped Speidel expansion bracelet with black inserts. As Genejockey described some of his bands, this one looked like it was toxic. It took an hour of removing the inserts and taking a toothbrush to every nook, but it cleaned up nicely as well. I think I would have tossed it if it just didn't match the watch so well.The only thing that wasn't restored were the lume dots and the lume on the back of the hands (Elgin called watches like this their Nite Glo models). The movement was so dingy when I sent it in, now it looks like new!

First AP!!!
Just got my first AP!!! The finishing is off the charts, I really can't believe it! I think I'll leave it on the rubber to finish the summer off, then might look for a bracelet or leather strap later!Thanks guys!

The dreaded Galactic 41
For me, this is my favorite Breitling I've ever owned. I've had colts, chronos, the odd special edition Nav here and there. But always come back to the Galactic.What's the general thought on this model? I know they discontinued it, maybe because it's not up there in terms of functions etc, but its a sexy watch.Anyone agree?

Omega Military Purchase Program
Following the latest shuttle mission I see all these X-33s on astronauts wrists (and a Speedmaster on a space walk). I guess the X-33 did not sell, but it is still provided to NASA personal and to the military. Under the Military Purchase Program pilots must buy their own watches, but at substantial discounts (+70%) and must order in quanities of at least 10. If they order 15 or more they can have their squadron and call-sign engraved on the back. You have to be an active member of the military to qualify.Apparenty Omega also provide the Special Boat Service (U.K. Navy Seals) with the Bond (blue) GMT and and the SAS with Planet Oceans but only Omega knows if this is correct and they are not saying.It would be nice to see the X-33, or a replacement sold to the pubic again.
