U-Boat Italo Fontana Flightdeck Eclipse 50mm

Question for aaron...
Hi aaron,Thanks for the warm welcome the other day!:)I pose this question for you since you own the same model Chrono Superocean as I do, but I would welcome anyone with some input to respond. I notice on my CSO that the Day indicator is ever so slightly out of alignment. Actually, I have seen this on several pictures around the forums on this particular model and was wondering if this is just human error in assembly or just the nature of this model? Does your watch exhibit the same?The rest of the watch is absolutely flawless as the chrono hands line up and reset perfectly and the watch keeps great time well within COSC standards.Here are some pics to demonstrate what I am talking about:It's funny because "FRI" seems to be off center the worst but the other days are barely noticeable. Take a look at "SAT" for instance:I appreciate any thoughts on this matter. I guess this is something I can always address before the warranty expires. I don't want to send the watch to BUSA just f

First AP! True Blue...
I've been hunting for a blue-dialed RO for some time. I really like the 15202, but the cost and availability is not optimal. The 15300 and 15400 are both fantastic pieces, but the 15400 won out in the end.The finishing on this watch is fantastic...so much nicer than on anything else that I've owned. And the dial...oh, that dial! It is magical. It changes colors and the markers have a 3D effect that make them seem to float over the dial at certain angles. I'm also happy I went with the blue. All the dial colors are beautiful, but blue provides me some contrast to all my other black-dialed pieces.This one will be on the wrist for a while.

Incoming Speedmaster Meteorite Dial
This was in a wonderful seller's safe for the last two years. Brand new, stickers still intact, never sized. I feel very lucky to have found it and now own it.Had to part with another watch, but feel it was worth it!!!!!

Strange Thing Happened to me in a Restaurant this weekend
Hi All,Just thought I would share an interesting (funny?) tale with you that happened this weekend. I went to an Italian Restaurant on the UES called Campagnolo. Our waiter, a fairly flamboyant gentleman called Claudio, was giving our table of seven some great service - talking away and regaling everyone with tales of Italy and his hometown close to Lake Como. He kept glancing at my watch and asked me after a bit (while everyone was eating) - ma suo orologio e un Bulgari per caso? (is your watch a Bulgari by any chance?). I told him it was a Patek...and he then asked me - me lo puo prestare per un momento? (may I borrow it for just a moment?)I don't know what came over me , but I went ahead and put my Aquanaut on his wrist and wore his PAM, while he went over to another table (apparently the restaurant owner's table) and said that he needed a raise so that he could afford an Aquanaut. That WHOLE table marvelled at the watch, etc...and after Claudio came back and returned the watc

Decided to brush the PCL's on BLNR (pics inside)
And couldn't be happier with the results. Opinions are divided on PCL's, but I'm much more of a fan of the brushed look. It cost just $50 from a professional, so well worth the money to me. It would certainly lower the resale value, but I don't plan on ever parting with this one.Just thought I'd post a few pictures if anyone is considering doing the same thing.
