Mark Eleven

It's Selita SW200 movement.

I found this online at: http://www.hec.unil.ch/cms_irm/Gautschi.pdf It's a student's master thesis from 2005. It may not be most up-to-date (a lot has changed since 2005), however there is still a lot of information which is very interesting. In this paper, it also has a marketing positioning matrix for the various Swiss watch brands.

Any idea what watch Paulson is wearing here? Looks like a Rolex President Two Tone?

It's a DRSD

Pls critique this submariner. I was told it came from the same factory as noob, but the serial number is not the famous serial number F520117 but 636339. Or could it be a beginmariner?

Besides using a rubber ball, what other way can I open my watch? Any good idea for a DIY caseback opener?

Jetmid has the BEST rep ever!! On a more serious note, the search button is your best friend.

Although I'm not in the gulf area affected by the oil spill, I was watching and following live video feed of the BP oil spill, hoping that "Top Kill" would work. But it didn't and now it looks like only the relief wells will work - 90 days from now. By then it will be the all time worst disaster the world ever experience, if not already now.

Despite what Rolex stands for (whether good or bad depends on your perception), IMHO, Rolex has the most classic design. That's why Sub is the most copied watch in the world ever. And I love my vintage DRSD 1665 and 5513.

On Saturday, the eve of Chinese New Year

I'm wearing this today. Got it from my friend, the date window frame falls off, I opened the caseback and threw it off. Still looks stunning, IMO.
