Next day a package arrives with the missing links. Great service.

damn, they don't have the Patek I want, or the Cartier Roadster in the color I want. Those are the next two on my hit list

Breits were always too busy for me. Rolex are classics, but too common....and everyone has a china knockoff. Panerai are very nice though. Still love and prefer Omegas for daily use though.

Well... Bell & Ross trumps both...

Can't say anything bad about Panerai... they have the same utilitarian yet beautiful look like the B&R's...

hutch300, I must say your Speedmaster is stunning... mind if I borrow it?

Once I win the lottery first thing Im gonna buy is the new Urwerk UR-202...

Personnaly I don't like the current B&R's they are big just to be big. Also they are charging a premium for a very pedestrian movement. As far as the Brightbling vs. Rolex I would have to say Rolex wins. They manufacture their movements unlike Briet that buys modified movements from ETA. But it is all a matter of personal taste.

My only Breit.



If you like Pan's you will like this, made by a small British watch company called Prescita. This is the PRS-20 LE only 100 made (#20) they also have a non limited version. Uses the same movement that Pan does for a fraction of the cost and the build quility is as good if not better. If you want check out timefactors.com for his current watches.

To late for that version it was limited, the non limited has a solid case back and an undecorated Unitas movement. Still a great watch.

The price was £550 If I remember right at the time the exchange rate was 2:1 so around 1100.00 USD + customs so to make life easy lets say 1200.00 USD. The non limited is still on back order but was available for £335 which at the current exchange rate of 1:1.83 would be around 615.00 add customs figure around 700.00 USD.

Okay, this is a CHEAP watch. The face is of no real interest until you look more closely. The shot of the lower dial is a time exposure, covering at least 5 seconds: you can see the second hand in those five positions ....

Shot with a digital SLR and combination bellows, 2 X magnifier, and extension tube. Yeah, using a tripod. Even so, it's not quite as clear as I'd like ....

Well it isn't really OT as the OP posted crap shots of a crap watch. So we are trying to turn it around with good pics of good watches.

Holy crap!! 1200 is like super cheap for an omega. My speedmaster was like 1800 and wasn't a limited edition model or anything.

AZN that isn't an Omega I was talking about it is from a small British watch company. They specialize in limioted runs of historical military inspired watches. I have about 12 Omegas 4 modern the rest vintage (over 15 yrs). The Speedy I showed I got a vaery good (35%) discount from an AD in Washington DC around 6 years ago ran me around 1700.00 USD.

Ah ok, that price sounds about right. Got mixed up on which watch you were talking about
