Dealing with weak Luminescence
First, let me politely ask, PLEASE, no "weak stream" references, I can feel them coming a mile away. Thanks! One of the features I liked about the Hamilton Ventura 50th Anniversary quartz, is the luminescent hands. I have always wondered why more casual watches that you would wear more often during the day, had glow in the dark hands, but dress watches, which are often worn only at night, do not have some means of being read in the dark. So, when I learned of the luminescent hands on the Ventura 50th, I was very excited.BUT, I learned very quickly that the hands don't glow brightly for very long. I contacted Hamilton to learn if this was a pervasive issue, or if it could be fixed. The techs there, and a number of people who have the same watch, told me they encountered the same thing. I have also had people tell me that other Hamiltons, such as some of the Khakis, don't glow very brightly for long.So, here's my questionshort of sending the watch off for 3rd part luming, is there

Little bit of military
Been overseas now for a while and only brought my TAG Heuer Indy 500. Not to everyone's taste but its my daily so does get quite a battering!Family came to visit this week and brought my Omega with them. 1953, RAF. Good condition, complete and original.Here's a pic.

Patek Philippe 5196R vs Breguet Classique 7147 rose ¡®grand feu¡¯
Hello. I am looking for a dress watch, and have come down to two models. The Calatrava 5196R and the Breguet Classique 7147 grand feu in rose gold. This is a watch that i will wear with a suit and more casual wear aswell. What do you guys think? I really love them both, and it is getting really difficult to decide.

Sell a Daytona for the New Pepsi + Sub
hello,would you sell your black 116520 (2015) for the new Pepsi + Sub ( no date ) ?knowing that i already have : LVC + BLNR + Daytona 116500 ( white Dial )thanks !

Crazy and unrealistic market environment for ADs
Everyday, my firm gets multiple calls from total strangers inquiring about our inventory. As has been our policy, we would advise these clients to visit. Used to be the calls only involved the Daytonas. Now, it¡¯s on nearly every Professional series watch. I¡¯m not trying to be flippant here but isn¡¯t it my right to decide who should purchase these rare models? If I have a SS Sub in the case, 9 out of 10 it¡¯s going to be sold to a flipper, unless I intervene. Even at full price, the end user is not in my store. Filling out warranties and removing all the protective plastics isn¡¯t a disincentive. Do I have to play 20 questions just to qualify the buyer? Only sell to clients I know?Ask to see a photo of their collection?Rolex has no response.
