    how do you deal with scratches on your watches?

    it seems to me that the thread has turned into one of debates about polishing or not... but @Cincinnati asked HOW to polish, and not IF polish or not polished..... given it's not vintage watches, you have every right to polish them... you already know the disadvantages, but being the first...

    Code 11.59 Audemars Piguet.... what do u think?

    @Eddie u're so right about the strap....I really appreciate the fact that the date has moved to 3 o'clock, as it should have been initially. but I can't understand why the brand is messing around with a steel bracelet. they could have launched it now, together with the steel case. who needed...

    6 questions about watches I can't figure out

    you are right, only partially. when it comes to depth and testing, it's not about only the depth itself, but also how long it lasts, that is, the time period in which the watch remains resistant under water is also tested. brands spend a lot of money when it comes to ISO. it's a very expensive...

    6 questions about watches I can't figure out

    if I'm not mistaken, panerai is a good example of sandwich dials. they differ from other types in their multiple levels. at first glance, there is not much difference. but a professional eye will notice that the multiple layers add a depth effect. there is something attractive about these...

    vintage vs modern! help me figure it out!

    but you can do the same with a vintage watch. if you know which dealer you are buying it from, hassles are unlikely. check everything in the watch BEFORE you buy it and everything is ok.... In addition, not all vintage watches have different movements from their modern counterparts. look at the...

    Vacheron or Patek reps?

    how much do the history and achievements of the brand matter to you? you could decide based on these criteria.😁😁 Vacheron is much older, with a difference of 80 years compared to Patek. that is, at the level of expertise, history, and development, it is much more ahead..... as for achievements...

    Solid vs open caseback

    same here.... I wouldn't mind spending a whole day looking at them... I didn't understand them at first, but along the way you understand that this is no less attractive and important in a watch than the dial

    Best case shape?

    tbh, the round shape is the most adored by me. and it's not related to some basic perceptions. it is more related to the fact that any other watch case just doesn't fit my wrist.
