Hi FolksYou may remember i was given a james bond casino royale limited edition a few months ago as a present.Well!. was in town today, and looked in the jewellers window and they had the new james bond one there, i was interested, but the one next to it i preferred!, so i went in, and they were most helpful, and i ended up buying the Chronograph, i think it is the james bond one also, although it isnt limited edition, they even knocked 200 pounds off the price, so i couldnt resist.Heres the link to the one it is until i post pics omegawatches/index.ph...001&no_cache=1I will add pictures in a minute!Matt

My favorite Audemars Piguet ROO Line... Schumacher
For a few weeks I've been helping my brother-in-law purchase a titanium Schumi and we finally received it last week. This past weekend I had the chance to actually see this piece in person and WOW. I've always been a fan of the photos I've seen online and in the different forums, but seeing it in the flesh was just amazing. Hands down the Schumi line is my favorite ROO ever. The details on this thing are just perfect... the hex screws, oversized chrono pushers, red date, razor hands, engravings on the plots, etc... just love everything about this watch, except the hefty price tag. My favorite one is the rose gold version followed by the titanium one. So sad this beauty is not mine!!!Here are some photos I took while I enjoyed the piece for a few minutes.
