  1. ATM Tip.

    If it looks like there is an additional appendage over the card slot, beware. If there is a plastic piece over the card slot-- PULL ON IT. It is not uncommon to find and overlay reader on the machine with small camera to read PIN. It is not uncommon or difficult to duplicate the mag strip onto a hotel key card, and if they have the PIN you bank account might get emptied. Shield your PIN entry from any prying eyes/cameras.

  2. No need to pull the crown out, let them run down...

    This sounds like the winder debate, to leave running or not.

    If I follow your logic of "quarterly" wearing and swapping your watches. And for sake of argument, 3yr life expectancy on an unserviced A7750.

    That translates to:

    -Each watch worn 3 months a year.

    --Therefore, 4 years = 1 year running time per watch.

    ---4years x 3 (lifespan) = 12 years of probably being ok before a needed service or repair.

    I think that is what you are asking?

  3. Wow, coming in late to this post.

    Maybe I am crazy, but I AM a fan of the bluing, and sheared off pearl. Here is my MBW 1665 in my project bin/queue. DRSD dial, lugs, super dome, and silver flat 3 datewheel are on the to-do list.
