Eterna Calibre 39 Watch Movement: Valjoux 7750 Alternative And So Much More
No doubt in light of the fact that ETA-made movements are harder than ever to get, Eterna has just announced that they have created a new movement, dubbed the Calibre 39, which is the result of a project that started in 2007. This is potentially a very important announcement for the industry as the Calibre 39 is designed to be both an alternative to many hard to get ETA movements, as well as a strong base caliber for lots of complications.The Calibre 39 is a fully modular movement that has been designed to be as expandable as possible, ranging from a manual two-hander to a column wheel-equipped flyback chronograph. A project that started out with the goal of designing a competitor to the ETA 7750, Eterna has now launched a proposed entire family of movements thanks to a modular design that builds upon a base movement platform.

Incoming: Omega Speedmaster Pro
Hi everyone,I wanted to thank all the enablers who gave me great advice about the Omega Speedmaster Pro. I eventually decided to pursue the 3570.50. All of you were correct: Its an amazing watch and I absolutely adore it. The AD was kind enough to give me some promotional supplemental material about the Speedmaster Pro and its given me a chance to talk to my kids about the historical significance of this watch (I'm trying to convert my two tots into WIS!... However, I suspect that they simply love pushing the chrono buttons.... sigh).It runs a bit fast (+6 sec/day) but does it take time to settle?As well, could anyone recommend stores in the Toronto that sell leather straps for the Speedmaster Pro? Are there certain brands/models that you would recommend?Again, thanks for all of the advice and insight about this special watch. Sorry for the crappy iphone pic. All the best.
