Tudor WINDING WATCH

Features of luxurious Cartier Roadster Automatic Large Mens Watch
I was from trying to branch to watches like non-ronde form. I have owned a few rectangular watches, such as a Longines Dolce Vita and others here and there, but I really wanted to try a Tonneau-shaped watch, apart from the knock-offs people give you as a gift when they travel to China. So I began the first with a Franck Muller Casablanca, which I liked, but it was a little too clean and base is looking for me I think that, considering that have I used to occupied dials complicated the Breitling.

incoming....sort of
Just got this 1965 Mulco Escafandra Super Compressor into the rotation after a serious rehab.This watch was T O A S T when I got it a couple of years ago, not running, dial seriously toned, case beat up; just plain ugly...If I remember correctly I paid $10 plus shipping for it, bought via eBay...yes, the auction ended after midnight, but the watch was far from a creampuff.Rec'd it and loved the case (Seamaster-esque?) and dial so decided to restore it.I would post before pics but they all got lost in a pc crash. I detailed the case, had the mvt overhauled, located some NOS hands, had dial refinished in LA, CA. When I got the dial back it looked like a q-tip was used to paint the lume in, so I sent it to International Dial.Got it back and it looked great, but was refinished in GOLD instead of silver. Back it went. Rec'd it back a few weeks ago but have only today found the time to put it back together. This is one of those watches that I just can't find a bracelet that matches...you

How does the Zenith Rainbow compare to Omega Speedmastser, Seamaster Chrono or other Chronos? I like the Zenith but don't now anything about them.Thanks!AH

You couldn't make this up.
Was in an AD today looking for the new PO when a guy came in asking about an Omega he had seen that glowed bright blue with lights in, the AD explained that Omega didn't make a watch like that. The guy was adament they did and had seen it the night before, the AD asked where and he said it was in a film and a man ended up in a ball in the snow and turned the lights on in the watch. Being a bit of a Bond and Omega fan I realised he was talking about the scene in The World is Not Enough. I told the AD what the man was on about and explained to the man it was from a Bond film and not real, he said it was real as he had seen it in the film and wanted one. The AD explained again that it was not real and only a prop from a film and never made for sale, but this is the best bit he turned round and told the AD if he couldn't get it he would got to another Omega dealer. Some people never listen and never belive I suppose thats what makes the world go round.

This Costco Infection is Spreading
So a little before Christmas I posted a pic of almost the same watch for sale at Costco in Cumming GA. Now today I¡¯m at the one in Buford, GA and the price is jacked $1500 above the other one. Now the only diff. I see is the one above is the gold leafed dial. The other one from last week was not (see below)Not really a rant - just that this Xosco infection is spreading Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk
