The Breguet is...a classic Breguet. Sure it will be amazing.

It's so frustrating, sitting over here at a Breitling site wowing once again at a new Omega that looks like it will be just about perfect. My problem, however, is that they may overprice it like they did the bullnose models becuase of their 9300 movement. The 300 M needs a basic, affordable and reasonably-sized movement like the present-day Seamasters have. Leave the large and ridiculously thick 8500 movements to the PO, please.

Not a fan of the Seamaster 300 yet, need to see some real life photos first.

Come on Rolex, give me a new SeaDweller in 40mm with ceramic bezel.

Ridiculously thick 8500 movement :huh :huh :huh

Figured most of you are aware of this already but just in case in the App store there is a Baselworld App available. It has a pretty cool interactive 3-D map of the whole fair and you can see where all the exhibitors are laid out. I just downloaded it so I am stilling learning some of the features. I would be interested to see once the fair starts what info within the app is updated and how.

That Breguet is lovely, and I'm looking forward to seeing the Seamaster 300 properly. Omega do re-issues like no-one else.

I am a little surprised there has been no Breitling teasers yet..... but I actually quite like the anticipation. :lol:

(And it's 2 days and counting! :thumbsup:)

I saw that Tudor did introduce the black bay with the blue bezel.

Just saw it on TRF. Pics over there and a reference to ******, which may have pics as well. Blue faux-aged band I'm not so sure of, but with the bracelet I think it's a nice piece, and not crazy on the price.

Really, the system can't handle the name of Ben Clymer's website? C'mon.

New release coming out of Basel. I am not a big Patek guy honestly. But this is something special IMHO.

Interesting, but THIS one!

We now return you to your regular programming, i.e., what is realistically attainable for me.

Not the biggest fan of Nautilus styling but this new one is not bad. I like the first one but would prefer to sec hand to be polished silver instead of red.

Admin blocked it when this site first started. I've brought it up with him before and he doesn't recall now why it was blocked.

Yes. Personally I think the simpler the better when it comes to the Nautilus. But I wouldn't say no to the one above...
