Seiko Recraft Mechanical 1970s Style Watches
Full disclosure: I am a vintage Seiko fanatic. My watch-collecting journey really started with a fascination for Seiko¡¯s iconic automatic models of ¡®60s, ¡®70s, and (early) ¡®80s. Over the years, it¡¯s proven a great and satisfying romance, cemented by acquiring a number of great Seiko vintage timepieces ¨C a very rare Timesonar (one of the first watches by Seiko to have an exhibition caseback ¨C and therefore, sort of ever), an amazing NOS Seiko ¡°Monaco¡± with a 7016 movement, and my first grail attained, the 6139 ¡°Pogue¡± chrono that was renowned for being the first watch in outer space on a Skylab mission.

New Steel Rolex Submariner Watch For 2010
The long-awaited new steel version of the new generation of Rolex Submariner watches is here. The official name is the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date. This is not a surprise release from the brand for 2010. However, the introduction of a standard green dial is something I didn't expect.

Omega resale value
There is no denying that Omega produces high quality, great looking watches. That said, from a resale perspective, they just don't seem to match up to Rolex. Is this purely a gap in marketing or is it something else? Do you think Omega will ever catch up in the sale market?I'm becoming more of an Omega fan each day but resale value is definitely a consideration for me - what do you guys & gals think?
