Love this watch after a bezel swap, forced patina and a Horween strap:

Cool Shane, those Armida's are nice, you do the egg method for the patina?

Yup really happy with this watch for the price. Yes the egg method, super easy!

That price isn't bad! Those are beautiful. How's the luminary at night?

Picked this up recently, an Omega X-33. This is the 2nd generation and very difficult to find. One of the rarer Omegas made. Titanium case and band. Well finished with lots of detail. I will replace the bezel (looks more scuffed in this picture than it does in person) once my IWC return from servicing. It feels substantial and like nothing all at the same time.
Very few have seen one in person. Draws lines in the sand for watch collectors. I think this will continue to rise in value and is a great collector's watch.

Was a 45mm, but sent it back because the lume triangle fell off the bezel after two days. Now I have a Gauge Steel:

My preordered Helberg CH6 finally arrived as well with a nicely domed sapphire...

This watch has been on my mind since coming home from Singapore a few weeks ago. Just came out and very few watch stores have them yet. Moved it back down to 42mm (chrono is 44mm) and the dial is just stunning. Would like to buy one on my next visit to Singapore in Oct, but been thinking of a new car instead...
Looking for the hottest desk diver in a while under 10K, I think this is it!

You guys are killin me! Been wanting something new for a little while, really wanting a Seiko 7002 with the blue and red bezel. Couldn't find one at the right price when I had a little cash to burn, and can't do it now since I'm saving for a down payment on a new vehicle.
