Did we lose threads switching over to new look?? re: What Watch do you have...
just spent too much time looking for a thread from a couple years ago where we were talking about watches... appears to be gone?
Did we lose some when we swapped over.?
was trying to find it to send a message to someone about a rare find that was part of their wish list..
--btw: speaking of the new site... the bar coming down through "notifications" on the home page looks like a design flaw... bit of photoshop could be in order

Nope... that's not it.. I was a dedicated thread asking about watches... pretty certain it was this site.
Anyway.. somone had talked about Seiko SpringDrive Moonphase watches. 2008 special edition run of 200...
maybe I'm losing my mind...

Yep... I went through all my postings to date and couldn't find it. I'm sure it was here... someone told me about this watch.
Anyway... after looking a couple times a year since then.... suddenly found a dealer who has two of these. Anyone flying to NewYork in the couple weeks???
2008 watch of the year Seiko Springdrive Moonphase. 1 of 200 made. real piece of work... 1 second accuracy per month. which I know. rare bit of Quality timekeeping...
*** if whoever had this on their wishlist, from before is interested.. there are 2. Straight from Seiko and with a 3 year warranty. 40% off original retail.

The other thread would have been in the Off Topic section, which gets purged every few months, or when I can remember to save space. Just where this thread is heading as well.
Hi Rob, it may well have been me but I don't remember a thread on here about it specifically.
I still fancy a Seiko Spring Drive at some point but at the moment I have a thing about Perpertual Calendar watches... unfortunately they're BIG money. I was loving the Blancpain Le Brassus Perpetual but they (Blancpain) have rather queered their pitch in my eyes by entering a sponsorship arrangement with Lamborghini, how chavvy
Seiko's Spring Drive has such a lovely action with it's completely smooth sweep of the seconds handI slightly prefer the GMT model over the Moonphase myself.
I'll be in New York in June for my 20th wedding anniversary and SWMBO has said I can have another watch to celebrate/commiserate but they will probably have sold them by then.
Hey grumpy admin, just 'cos it's not a carbon Fondriest doesn't make it rubbish. I lust after one of them as well though
Cheers
