HourTime Show Podcast Episode 4 - Tourbillons, Dos/Don¡¯ts, Holiday Shopping + a Contest!
Episode 4 of the quickly growing HourTime watch chat podcast show is up. This time we talk about why all the fuss with tourbillon watches, dos and don'ts with watch wearing, and the beginning of our holiday watch buying tips.We start out with learning about what tourbillons are, what they do, why they exist, then why they were "forgotten" for years and years and their sudden comeback. Then we get into why wear a watch at all - not the same as checking the time on your cell phone. Wearing a watch on the underside of your wrist is a topic. Next, fake watches, don't get us started! Wearing your watch at the gym? Then, we talk about the watch industry and watch news (where do you get your watch news).The Holidays are coming up, so where should you go to buy your watches for gifts? We share some tips on what to look for when buying online.Also, HourTimeShowwatches-dealer is giving away a free Automatic Chrono Swatch Watch. You'll need to listen to the show and comment for a chance to w

Goodbye Daytona!
I have now flipped my SS Daytona for a BNIB DSSD that a friend of mine collected from his AD some days agoI felt it was time to let the Daytona go and get the DSSD back that I have missed after having flipped it. I am so happy it's back on my wrist! Here are some pics, as usual:FYI, there are exactly 22 pieces of plastic on the DSSD:Some mandatory wristshots:We got some snow tonight, so I thought I would just take some pics..As you can see, we have a permanent Christmas tree in our yard! :rocker:FYI, the DSSD weighs in at 214 grams:

Vintage value
This was an interesting auction:cgi.ebay/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_6232wt_1167It's a very nice watch, probably from the 60's or early 70's with a caliber 885. I track as many of these as I can on eBay because I own the predecessor to this watch. What's interesting is that up until recently these usually sold for $750 - $900 and the average selling price was in the low $800 range. Vintagehamiltons and I watched one many months ago sell for in this neighborhood also. However, this is the 2nd one in the last few months to sell for over $1000. This one is nearly pristine, and if you look at the pictures the black dot near the 3:00 indice is obviously on the crystal and not the dial - you can tell by how it seems to change locations at different angles in the pictures. The last one was an obvious redial (we discussed it back in the summer) and sold for $1100. Granted, gold has increased so that's some of the reason. Wombat also tipped me off to a vintage Longines Conquest that sold for

Anyone Disappointed by Nesbit's
Hello all. New member here.Has anyone been disappointed by Nesbit's in Seattle?I just received my SMP back from service and was a little disappointed by the refinishing. I know there's controversy over refinishing. To polish or not to polish, that is the question. I'm not talking about a vintage sword hand 300. This is a 2220.80 Co-Axial SMP.I live in the NE area and after reading several posts on different sites about the terrible service from Omega in NJ, and reading many good things about Nesbit's in WA, I decided to ship my SMP across the country.I cannot say enough about the customer service. Jan is wonderful! She took the time answers all of my emails and questions.I purchased the timepiece second hand and although it had a pedigree I questioned the authenticity of the date wheel. Nesbit's authenticated the date wheel, and they still replaced it at no additional cost. That my friends is customer service!Herein lies my issue. The refinishing or lack thereof was quite disappointing

Another busy Saturday morning filled with school sports, screaming kids and
my little friend!
