Tiff kocht me een mooie mechanische Seiko kijken naar een paar weken geleden als een vroeg kerstcadeau. Leven met het voor een maand heeft mij echt gegeven respect voor mechanische horloges.
Vroeger was ik een hand wond horloge dragen voor meerdere jaren, ergens
rond 1989 tot 1993. Ik herinner me dat ik hem kocht bij Target.
Het kan me niet herinneren het merk, maar het werkte goed totdat het
werd verloren tijdens een sneeuw scheppen ervaring buiten mijn tweede
appartement. Ik vond het het volgend voorjaar, maar tegen die tijd, het was verroest en geruïneerd.
Ik weet zeker dat als het een Seiko is 1) niet van gekomen van mijn
pols (strap mislukte) 2) als het deed, de roestvrijstalen behuizing zou
niet die van geroest.
Ik herinner me toen ik een kind was, het afluisteren mama en papa om een horloge te krijgen. Ik wilde een analoog horloge. Op het moment, het was waarschijnlijk 1986 of 87. Alles was digitaal. Ik vond uiteindelijk een volledig zwart, ik geloof dat het een Casio Quartz, plastic horloge. Het was mijn eerste analoge kwarts. Ik droeg dat horloge voor de jaren tot één van de kunststof nokken gekraakt. Tot op de dag, kan ik niet een plastic horloge te kopen, maakt niet uit hoe cool het eruit ziet.
Ik denk dat mama en papa waarschijnlijk betaalden $ 30 of $ 40 of meer
voor dat horloge, die geen kleine som 20 jaar geleden was.
Terug naar mijn huidige horloge. Ik heb echt genieten van het dragen van een automatisch horloge. Het is veel meer 'alive' dan mijn andere horloges. Ik kijk nog steeds de tweede hand sweep over de wijzerplaat. Ik hou van het feit dat het waarschijnlijk overleven me, en ik kan het doorgeven aan Glenn op een dag. Het horloge is beginnen te settelen, is het ongeveer 10 seconden per dag vasten. Het was ongeveer 15 seconden per dag vasten in het begin. Ik net zoiets als het feit dat ik moet de tijd opnieuw zo nu en dan. Nu realiseer ik me, je echt niet super exacte tijd nodig. +/- 1 minuut is niet van plan om je te doden. bekijk meer imitatie rolex en Breitling Colt

Chalk and Cheese?
A watch nut acquaintance of mine arrived back from holiday the other day, waltzed into my place and bragged about his new watch. He only gave me a fleeting glimpse of it as he waved his arm around, saying this was the absolute best watch he'd ever owned.
Intrigued of course I asked to see it and even though I just had the slightest peek, I said it looked like he'd got himself an Aviator classic. “Oh, he said, you don't have one too, do you?”
Well I've got this one here I replied and dug out my old AstroAvia Classic Aviator Alarm watch that I've had for a number of years. Now I wouldn't say it's the very best watch I've ever owned, but it is in practical terms, a pretty decent watch and one that I intend to keep for a long time yet.
Anyway the watch on his wrist was marked on the dial as Ernst Benz , which to me, being a bit cynical in my old age, sounds like one of those made up Swiss German classic marques, that more often than not turn out to be (in my experience) a vastly expensive product with little actual pedigree, or indeed watch specification detail (or any), but lots of dialogue about how good it is. Looking up Herr Ernst Benz I confess to being unsure as to the tie up with a watch brand, but hey why not! I do have a watch in my display cabinet with my own name on the dial too!
Now my friend oddly enough after seeing my old Astro suddenly went all coy on how much his Benz cost!
Of course if I'm honest, just because the brand was and is pretty much
unknown to me, doesn't make my cynicism justified – I could be quite
wrong and it could indeed be a super quality classic.
However looking closely at it – I've got to say it doesn't appear anything special – it's a fairly common mechanical automatic chrono, probably a 7750 series or 2824/36 movement or similar (I have many of these), the case and dial design is in ubiquitous “Aviator” style and hardly special, the numerals, printing, hands, dial and case quality and finish are comparable and when we put both watches together, they look pretty similar.
Of course in reality they are not the same and there are differences for sure – mechanical automatic v quartz, Sapphire v Hardened Mineral crystal and “maybe” quality differences and so on, but we're not talking gold or platinum here, or super complications, but a stainless cased working chronograph. The cost differential may well be taken up in part by the mechanical v quartz, though other than that aspect, I don't see much else. However that said it is fact that mechanical 7750 and 2824 movements models can be anywhere from £600 to £thousands, depending on who they are, marketing hype and fashion. Factually though it's OK, but personally I'd be looking elsewhere money wise.
My old AstroAvia has a Japanese Quartz (OS2 or YM62 usually) has never let me down, the hands mechanics and complications work fine and is just what I need from a practical daily beater, which why I bought it in the first place. I do recall I favored Quartz over mechanical as more often than not, chronograph complications in everyday wear, considering knocks and so on usually fare better. ( See my post of March 2010 ). It also came with a bracelet and a quality leather strap!
However as the image, they do have a certain similarity – that aviator style and whilst I am very happy with my AstroAvia purchase, I'm not too sure if my old friend is quite so happy after I mentioned it's £180 price tag.
He never did tell me how much he paid, but checking up on a few of the Benz model prices and which after seeing them, I'd consider this more orientated towards fashion than anything else.
And as to my title “Chalk and Cheese?”, well it certainly makes this old pessimist wonder. bekijk meer horloges rolex en chopard mille miglia

300watches: The Collector's Choice for Vintage Watches and Service Support
Vintage watches offer time-tested styles and phenomenal value.
Due to the fact that premium Swiss watches can last generations, buying vintage appeals to the discerning buyer's appreciation of enduring beauty and quality. The collector's first and most vital step is to find a vintage watch dealer that he can trust to provide guaranteed authentic watches, the most competitive prices, and comprehensive satisfaction guarantees post-purchase.
300watches satisfies on all counts.
When a collector discovers vintage watches of interest, his first questions will concern the authenticity and condition of the timepieces.

With over a decade of experience in the vintage watch industry, 300 and its trusted network of master watchmakers eradicate forgeries, Franken-watches, and broken pieces before accepting any inventory.

Collectors purchase vintage watches because their lasting value is undeniable. While most new watches shed 20-80 percent of their value the moment buyers leave the dealers' showrooms, vintage watches maintain significant value. 300watches personnel know the difference between vintage classics and mere used watches. This experience pays dividends for the collector, who will find only time-tested models with proven value and potential to appreciate.
While new watch buyers shoulder the burden of depreciation, collectors of this company's pre-owned offerings are able to purchase time-tested models at their stabilized post-depreciation market value.

However, the common thread among these models is their ability to preserve and even grow a collector's investment over time. $1,000 invested in a classic 1950s “Bumper” Omega from 300watches is as sound a store of value as $1,000,000 for a Rolex 8171 triple-date.
Above all, collectors can count on peerless after-sales support from 300watches. This company offers the Internet's most comprehensive post-purchase services to vintage watch buyers.

Groot als Pam's - Panerai Luminor Marina 1950 47mm (PAM 422)
Wat doen Panerai en Porsche hebben met elkaar gemeen? Nee, niet de zelfde eerste letter van hun naam. De vermelding van een lijn die ik herinner me vaag van Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson "Porsche heeft een nieuwe 911. En het ziet er precies hetzelfde als de oude!"
Net als de 911's chassis, is de Luminor's zaak vorm nauwelijks veranderd in de afgelopen decennia. Net als Porsche, heeft Panerai besloten vast te houden aan een winnende formule, lijkt het. De Porsche 911 komt in vele gedaanten - de 911 Carerra, 911Turbo, 911 Carerra S om er maar een paar te noemen. Evenzo wordt de Panerai 1950 case gebruikt in een breed scala van het aanbod, zoals de PAM 320, 321and 359 om er maar een paar te noemen.
Echter, de afhankelijkheid van een herkenbare vorm en design maakt het mogelijk zowel de Porsche's en producten Panerai om direct herkenbaar zijn. Eerlijk gezegd, ik zie niets mis mee. Als er geen noodzaak om een betere muizenval te ontwerpen, waarom zou je?
De 422 komt in het kielzog van de immens populaire 372. Het maakt gebruik van dezelfde 47mm geval als de 372 en de 423, maar mist het historische uiterlijk van de 372. De matte zwarte wijzerplaat is getrouwd met gouden stok en Arabische markers (12, 3 en 6 ). Gouden handen toevoegen dat vintage gevoel aan een moderne vertolking van een tijdloze klassieker. Ik geef de voorkeur aan de aanwezigheid van een tweede sub-wijzerplaat op mijn PAM's. Ik vind net dat beetje van rommel. Die scheve, asymmetrische uitstraling van een anders, al vlakte wijzerplaat. Oh, had ik al gezegd dat het een sandwich wijzerplaat ook? Ik persoonlijk liever sandwich wijzerplaten.
Een van mijn grootste zorgen ligt bij de zaak. De 1950 case is vrij groot. maar niet zo dik. Ja, ik heb grotere en dikkere horloges in mijn stash, maar wat mij zorgen baart over deze bijzondere beest is het helemaal gepolijst oppervlak. Wat zich vertaalt naar een mogelijke ding magneet. Anders is er niets niet graag over de stijlvolle lijnen van deze zeer goed afgewerkt kussen geval.
Wat stelt dit geval, afgezien van de andere Luminors is zijn unieke vorm. Van wat ik begrijp, dit geval vorm is een beetje anders dan de vorige aanbiedingen zoals de 000, 005, 111, en zelfs de latere modellen zoals de 320, 312 en 359. Dit kussen geval is vergelijkbaar met de Radiomir's. Nu, in plaats van draad lugs, is het compleet ingerichte met de handtekening van dikke lippen van de Luminor's en en dikke kroon guard.
Ik ben nogal teleurgesteld door de kroon wacht, eigenlijk. Nee, de bouwkwaliteit is prima. Ik heb het gevoel dat de prijs die zij aanrekenen voor dit horloge, moeten ze in ieder geval overeen met een gepolijste apparaat in plaats van één die duidelijk massa wordt geproduceerd voor hun andere aanbod als een 'one size fit all' oplossing.
Dit stuk is voorzien van een transparante zaak terug, waarmee je een glimp van de in-house P3001 beweging. De P3001 is dezelfde reeks in-house kalibers gebruikt in de 371 en 423 ook. Dit is een 3-daagse gangreserve de hand wond beweging. De voormalige heeft geen gangreserve indicator (PRI), terwijl de later heeft één op de wijzerplaat. De P3001 heeft het op de achterzijde van de beweging. Ik ben ook nogal teleurstelling door de doorzichtige zaak terug. Het is een groot raam, toegekend, maar de beweging is bijna volledig verborgen, net als een continentaal auto motorruimte. Je weet wat ik bedoel als je de motorkap van een Merc of Bimma tillen.
Het is een enorme horloge en dat blijkt. Er is dat beetje overhang als gevolg van de relatief rechte nokken. Maar ik denk dat het nog steeds ziet er vrij goed op mijn pols.
Ik zou niet zeggen dat het lume is legendarisch, maar het is typisch Panerai. Vintage groen en netjes. En nog belangrijker, het doet het werk naar behoren.
Het horloge wordt standaard geleverd met een paar assolutamente bandjes. Dit zijn de riemen aan de onderkant van de foto waarboven niet naar 422. Het is eigenlijk een Panerai-spreken voor nubuck aangebracht. Ze zijn fantastisch uitziende banden met uitzondering van twee kleine details. Allereerst nubuck vergelijkbaar met suède textuur. Daarom, als je het nat, het is ten dode opgeschreven. Ten tweede, de voorraad banden zijn 26 / 22mm. Ik persoonlijk micul dat de versmalling is te veel. Een 22mm Tang gesp is veel te klein voor een 47mm case. Zoals je kunt zien, slaagde ik erin om een paar bandjes die er bijna uit als het origineel assolutamente, met een straigh 26 / 26mm dimensie te vinden, en is nog niet klaar, zoals suède of nubuck. En om het af, het is een fractie van de prijs!
dit is de tweede PAM ik heb. De andere is de 320. Wat ik leuk vind Panerai is hoe sterk ze kijken. Zozeer zelfs, dat mijn lieve vrouw nog steeds niet weet dat ik twee Panerais! Ze denken nog steeds dat dit de 320! Toch zou het kunnen lijken alsof ik ben nogal teleurgesteld met dit PAM maar eerlijk gezegd, ik ben niet. Ik ben nogal blij mee, esthetisch. Ik hou van hoe Panerai een historisch stuk een modern tintje heeft gegeven. Ik hou van de algehele-vintage geïnspireerde pakket. De meeste van allemaal, ik hou van de grootte en gewicht. En zoals met de meeste PAM van de aftermarket band mogelijkheden zijn eindeloos. Tenzij het een aangepaste stuk, is het onmogelijk om een horloge dat je verwachtingen voldoet in elk detail bezitten. Daarom heb ik dit horloge gekozen om een simpele reden - I like it!bekijk meer horloges replicas en chopard happy diamonds
