Loading ...Myths and Realities of Rolex Replicas
Jul 30th, 2006 Comments (2) 9,743 views (No Ratings Yet) Loading ...You, as a customer, might notice seeing many more Rolex replica dealers on the Internet. Some
of these dealers dona’t necessarily offer great products and can’t offer something new to the
customers. But most of these dealers are rookies who don’t know much about Rolex replicas, and
they are usually shut down after a few months, so they try to sell as many replicas as they can
whichever way possible.
Omega Seamaster and Breitling SO Steelfish
Jul 28th, 2006 Comments (0) 31,604 views (1 votes, 1.00/5) Loading ...Omega Seamaster 2254.50
Versatility – This watch seems to go with any dress situation.
Fit and Finish – I love the finish of this watch. I have shopped many brands and the Omega is right up there with the best. It just looks and feels really solid. Some watches will rattle a little bit and the Omega never does.
Ergonomics – The look and design of this watch are all really thought out nicely. The size of the face is nice and large and the bezel just goes perfectly in accordance with the face. The bracelet has a beautiful taper to it and just seems to flow nicely from the clasp to the case when it is on your wrist.

Rotating Bezel Watches
Jul 24th, 2006 Comments (0) 6,686 views (No Ratings Yet) Loading ...
Another special feature on many watches is a rotating bezel, which enables the wearer to measure elapsed time without having to do any mental arithmetic. At the start of the event to be timed, he turns the bezel so that the zero marker- often a triangular pointer- is aligned with the watch’s minute or seconds hand. When the event ends, he reads the elapsed time off the bezel.
Some rotating bezels are designed for purposes other than time measurement. A rotating slide-rule bezel lets the wearer perform arithmetic calculations. A rotating compass bezel allows the watch to be used as a solar compass.
Time Zones. GMT watches and dual-time-zone watches.
Jul 24th, 2006 Comments (0) 3,492 views (No Ratings Yet) Loading ...There is a category of watches equipped with special feature: a second- time- zone indicator. These watches show both local time and the time in another time zone. They come in many varieties and have many names. Some are called GMT watches. GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time, the time at the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England, and the standard time for navigation and international radio broadcasts. GMT watches have an additional hour hand, set separately from the regular hour hand, which gives the hour in a second time zone using a 24- hour scale on the watch dial. Despite the watcha?
Hautlance – HL01

Issued in a limited edition of 88, the HL01 is distinguished by an innovative display concept showing civilian time according to an instinctive read-off mode using jumping hours and retrograde minutes.
The dial is beautifully highlighted by an original 16/9 case and an alligator leather strap. The hand- wound movement has a 40- hour power reserve. Nice watches!
