Full-Length Tribute to a Nice Diver's Watch
Folks, Here is a very well-written tribute to the Bulova Marine Star written by a guy who really loves his watch: Tribute to the Bulova Marine Star 98C62 Day-Date Diver's Watch - Intro It's probably the most exhaustive watch review I've ever read, more complete than even magazine articles. Here are some excerpts: "The dial of the Bulova Marine Star 98C62 Day-Date Diver's Watch is a work of art.
Having owned my Rolex Daytona 116520 for five years, I thought I would write a longer-term review about what drew me to the watch, my experience wearing it, and how my love for it has grown over the years. Design: To me, the 116520 Daytona is the Rolex model that most embodies harmonious, beautiful, lines. The shiny silver sub-dials take my breath away every time, as do the white gold hands and markers--very unique, alluring designs.

Audemars Piguet - The 3 Watches that Sing to Me
The 3 Watches that Sing to Me Apr 13, 2023,15:42 PM After 40 years of watch collecting, I'm happy to have refined my collection to just 3--my Holy Trinity, the 3 watches that sing to me: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15500, Rolex Daytona 116520, Rolex Submariner 116610 After re-rationalizing my collection, I've decided that, if I have too many watches, I don't give them enough wrist time, they end up sitting in the watch case, and I'd rather wear them and enjoy them.
How to Reset/Recalibrate A "Stuck" Quartz Chronograph
Ladies & Gents, If you have a quartz chronograph and let's say it has a 30-minute subdial and for some reason the hand is stuck :-s at 29 when it should be at 30, most quartz chronographs have the same/a similar resetting method: First, pull the crown out to the farthest position, typically where it lets you set the time. Then, hold down both chronograph buttons for a few seconds. Next, let go and if you push chronograph button one, it should advance the chronograph second hand once.

Thinking About an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Thanks all for the great feedback. Yes, I will definitely take caution. I do like the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso and Cartier Tank. Both have outstanding pedigrees and histories, and both are exquisitely made. I certainly have them in mind. I am a bit partial to Audemars Piguet, however. Having owned my octagonal RO and enjoyed the experience as well as still thoroughly enjoying it so far, I am leaning towards adding to the collection an “extension of the family,” so to speak.
