Zenith Elite GMT

At A Loss For Words...
Gentlemen, I am speechless! See below for the short version:(Long version) A few weeks ago, I decided to give my Seasmaster a break. I'd worn it every day for two years and the bracelet was showing it. That's when I decided to buy another watch. I originally bought a cheap Casio and then became acquainted with Orient. I ended up buying about 10 different watches ranging from Victorinox to Seiko and Orient. All of these watches are great in their own right, but deep down inside, I wanted another luxury watch. When I first looked into buying an Omega, I was torn between the Seamaster and Speedmaster. I wanted the Seamaster because of James Bond but I liked the history behing the Speedmaster.

Making first Rolex purchase, need help.
I am purchasing the new GMT II with the ceramic bezel, and need some help navigating the Rolex world. If anyone cares to chime in with answers it would be appreciated.1.

What is the true wait timeOne AD told me I would have to put down a deposit and maybe in six to eight weeks I would have mine. The other AD tells me put down a 50% deposit and they will bring one in from another store (they are a national chain), but the can not guarantee one will be available until I put the money down.Topnotch has them right now.3. How can Topnotch have them in stock when ADs claim you have to wait anywhere from a couple of days to 6 to 8 weeks?4. Has anyone bought from Topnotch? I realize they are a sponsor, but why claim the retail price is $8925 in their ebay listing and then offer it for $6595.

♡ Help a clueless girl choose a man's watch?
I would like to buy my fiance a watch for Valentine's day. I know what he likes, but I have zero knowledge about watches. Being a child of the internet age, I take my quest to the internet and this watch forum! Can you recommend me some watches?He likes:-Wind up watches (I believe they're called mechanical?)-Thin watches (the case part)-Titanium (other materials might also be good, I just know he likes this one)-Mesh band (although other bands might be good also)He doesn't like:-Gold-Thick bulky watches-Fussy watches (too many dials and things)I'm not sure if a thin wind up watch even existspresumably they to be bigger to accommodate the wind up mechanism. If so, feel free to post recommendations for thin battery operated watch or thin-ish wind up watches. Thin-ness is definitely the top priority, followed by wind up.My budget iswell actually I'm not sure what's reasonable for a watch. $200 or less?As you can see, I need some help. If it's not too much trouble, could you post some s
