A good article on John Shaeffer repeaters at the 'H' site...

I've always been a fan of this line and this case. It would be great to see them make a comeback... https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/buying-selling-collecting-john-shaeffer-repeaters Hodinkee

Armis has ignited the Royal Oak Offshore flame lately.

Many newer members might not know this (and by newer, I mean if you joined in the past 10-12 years), but this forum used to be all Offshore, all the time. Of course, AP had a period starting circa 2004 where they rolled out legend after legend, and the fo
