  1. It's a tough one, because I will forever be on that hunt for the watch that will change my life. When I buy a watch, I am normally satisfied for that first day. Then the hunt for the next watch begins. When does it end.. lol.. But at an attempt to answer your question. The SMP 300 bond. It has gotten more wrist time then all others. Close second was the PAM 111h that I now regret selling .
  2. I am a green #4 Them Alpha watches are a great place to start, without much fear.
  3. Some possible info for you here on "swiss made" watches http://www.fhs.ch/en/swissm.php A paragraph from the site "This law is based on a concept according to which Swiss quality depends on the amount of work actually carried out on a watch in Switzerland, even if some foreign components are used in it. It therefore requires that the assembly work on the movement (the motor of the watch) and on the watch itself (fitting the movement with the dial, hands and the various parts of the case) should be carried out in Switzerland, along with the final testing of the movement. It also requires that at least 50% of the components of the movement should be manufactured in Switzerland"
  4. Lol...that really stuck me as funny
  5. wait until you find the other watch forums around. Just follow the link section on this site. That will keep you busy for a while.
  6. Always thought that was strange. But he do have the Fat person go-carts for them to ride in.
  7. Good work Zetter! I hope Davidsen utilizes your improved version.
  8. I have seen this kind of misunderstanding more then once. Is there anyway this forum can indicate that a post has been moved?
  9. Very cool! This is my next watch....!!!
  10. I just read on the Darkside that a few people have offered their services to get it more accurate. It's almost a greedy/guilty feeling on how accurate these reps are becoming. But then again, some of the gens are sold at rip off prices.
  11. I wanted to warn some of the bidders. but, they only show as bid#'s. Is this a private auction? It's sad someone might have to pay$700 or more for that thing. I know the saying " a fool and his money are soon departed" But I still feel obligated to warn someone. The bottom line is I hate scammers.
  12. Thank you. And a happy Thanksgiving to you too!!

    Now this kinda depressed me a bit. Hope I can source a good deal for one as well.

    Sweet! I must have this now. !!
  15. I am waiting patiently for Angus's New Chronomat Evolution. Looks to be a winner.
  16. Just saw the new bond movie. The movie definitely focused on the Omega watches. Would love to see this watch with the rubber strap. But, I will do without the 007 on the end of the second hand. Great movie BTW. Very surprised by Daniel Craig. He looks more athletic then the others, so he is more believable in some of those action scenes.
  17. Bill, do you have multiples of the exact same watch? If you do, it's okay. thats what I do, for the fear one may break if I love it enough.
