Help Me Make The Choice! Please!
hello fellow oris fans:D...i'm a new member and i plan to buy another oris (have a '03 tt1, rubber bezel, black numeral,metal bracelet, love it and it's keeps great time even after 5 years and some hard wear) i'm in a toss up between a tt1 divers date blue face and bezel with metal bracelet and a tt1 divers titanium date like mr. beeches or with luminescent dial....my question is how much lighter is the titanium ? do you really feel the difference? and has anyone seen the blueface diver in person? is it same blue as omega?..i've seen the omega and like the color...well as they say, "whaddya know?" thanks in advance for opinions and advice, fred:)

RO/ROO scratches - inevitable?
Hi fellas,I know there are tonnes of threads of lads complaining how the polished parts of RO's and ROO's are 'scratch magnets' but I did not know it was that bad (although I own AP's :s)Got a brand new ROO 42mm ss recently and I have been wearing very very carefully, no contact with anything etc, but there seems to be some 'hair lines' on the bezel - is it possible that this could have happened due to my clothing? I know I havent banged it anywhere etc.AP's are so gorgeous but so fragile in this sense :s

Brushing Titanium PCLs? (Speedmaster 57)
Hi all,After seeing it in person, the Speedmaster 57 (Titanium on Titanium) is a really beautiful watch.As you know, the center links of the Titanium bracelet are polished, just like the Stainless Steel version. Right now, I like the PCLs, but I was wondering if I wanted to in the future, one could brush the center links to match the brushed look of the outer links.I've read that an AD could do that fairly easily on a Speedmaster 57 stainless steel bracelet, but I'm wondering if the same is true for a Titanium bracelet or would it be a more difficult (or possibly easier?) job because of the different metal characteristics. Any info would be appreciated.Thanks.

Zeroing in on a 105.012
Hi Guys! 1. I have managed to zero-in on a 105.012. Just wanted to hear your thoughts on the seller's pitch for the item: The bezel is the nicest bezel I have seen on a Speedmaster 321. It has the correct little dot above the 90. I have seen the bezel with the correct dot sell for over $1800 on eBay by itself. The watch comes with the original bracelet, although one of the endlinks was dented pretty bad (better that the endlink be dented rather than the watch)! I bought replacement aftermarket endlinks, which look perfect. The bracelet is the correct Omega 1039 bracelet with a 3/67 date (3rd quarter of 1967). The bracelets were made by Gay Freres and often sell for about $1,000 by themselves. The bracelet is in really good shape. The watch comes with the COA from Omega, which states that it was produced August 23rd, 1967 and delivered to the United States. I had the crystal replaced with an original Omega hesalite crystal. I can include the original Omega crystal if you would like, but

Nautilus and impossible waitlist / Tokyo / Hong Kong a possibility?
So I tried a few AD in London - not a single one would take you on the waiting list for 5711 or 5712. Went into all the central London stores plus the PP salon. I phoned 5-6 in UK outside London - sames story.As I am Italian - I also contacted 5-6 AD in Italy - outside the big cities - same stories - no one takes you on the waiting list.Considering a pre-owned one - although prices are crazy high ... Visiting Hong Kong and Tokyo - wonder if it is cheaper there? Would they have better priced pre-owned? I assume impossible waitlists in those countries too?Thanks for your thoughts...M
