Officine Panerai

To continue my saga of vintage Rollies, I obviously could not go further without a Daytona. The question would then be which one… : the 16520 carrying the famous 4030 movement derived from the Zenith El Primero ? or its successor 116520 having the in-house movement 4130 ? Or maybe the latest 116500

My travel companion to Tokyo....Osaka.....Kyoto.... will spend the next 2 weeks there....

ok I swore I would not part with the red sub...however...ahem...it wasn’t quite the one...close...so it has left me for this beauty from 1974...and a 1968 5513 on a rivet bracelet...I’ll post pics of the sub when I have it back I left it with my local Rolex watch repairer to take a couple of links o

Any reviews ? Any takers ? Any extra info ? Unknown pic credit

anyone pre-ordering this? I think they've done a good design job, size seem good as well at 39mm, although not so sure of the thinkness with 12mm. cheers, Alex

(pic cred Fratello) IMO this is even cooler then a yellow gold GMT nipple dial with burgundy bezel... Sadly I didn’t even know the train was there before it left so I had no chance of catching it.

While reading old document you may find some very amusing stuff... Like these LeCoultre Do's and Dont's! DO have your watch cleaned, re-oiled and serviced at least once a year! At least once a year?! DON'T, ladies, keep your watch in a drawer with face powder! DON'T wear your watch … when perspiring

Last week I showed my gold version, so now my steel IWC Ingenieur also want to come out and play! The reference 666 is lovely in any metal, but they do have very different characters... While the gold version is warm, the steel often come off as cold! Best Blomman
