Initially hot item but now the frenzy has died down.

@TheHobbit: Ooooo. I like the green and the Harry Potter lighting bolt, though. Rolex just needs to add a date display, lol  :Scolding:

how hard is it to remember 1 or 2 number(s) in a day? just take a look at the calender when you wake up ... or when you read your newspaper..or etc.

it should be the way it is right now just like the original Milgauss. I do admit I like the black dial alot. The GV is too "flash" for my liking.

too bad the Omega Railmaster detracts from it's heritage and opt for a display casebacks and no antimagnetism. I like the 39mm RM alot too  :thumbsup:

@terrenceterrence: I guess I should, but I switched to a watch with no-date for a few months, and it felt really weird, lol. Surprisingly, my girlfriend is the same too, must have a date display on her watch. Ah well, diversity is the winner here  :Laughing_on_floor:

Is it me or am I the only guy here who cares about the date being accurate?  :Laughing_on_floor: Maybe cause I only have 1 watch, and you guys have so many...  :Jumping:

I would never wear a watch with a wrong date. It's there in the first place to show the date. But I do know people who don't care about correcting the date.

In that case dont buy a watch with date.
I know that is normally my criteria nowdays...handwind and no date.
Easy to just grab and go.

Nothing to do so went window shopping. Bumped into a good friend in a shop and had a great afternoon browsing around and not to mention he had a very productive day. Found all the things that he wanted and more.

This beauty was on his wrist today:





Father and Son









Calling all AC Milan Fans out there



Tried this on the wrist and I am in love. Seriously thinking about selling my Pam and consolidate my meager collection to fund this baby. Zenith, inverted 6 and thin markers; ahhhh................ :-*



My friend was actually looking for a heavy bracelet for his incoming 1675 GMT. Seems to be more economical to get a complete watch than jsut buying a bracelet alone. So finally he managed to get a 1600 + fluted bezel + S/S bezel + Jubilee + Heavy bracelet + leather strap for a good deal

But the creme de la creme find of the day is a folded, fixed end link bracelet to complement his Red Sub!!  :thumbsup: :thumbsup: he is over de moon with the find. Now his Red Sub is period correct  :thumbsup: :thumbsup: The shop owner was quite reluctant to let the bracelet go but in the end he relented.

If he sells the DJ down the road, the accessories would have paid for themselves. A really good day for him indeed  :thumbsup:



So anyone wanna get a Pam112K?  :Laughing_on_floor:
