Stay away from Baume & Mercier. I received one for Christmas and it died after a month. Sent it to Baume & Mercier for repairs and they were going to charge me $400. I declined. They made me pay the postage. What a ripoff. Terrible quality and awful customer service.

Does anyone know anything about Gab Marine watches. I have looked everwhere and can only find ones for sale on ebay, but no information on who makes them and where they are made. I received one for graduating from university in 2003 and would like to know more about it. Thanks

Guys could you review “Carrera watches”(yeah the company that makes the sunglasses). Besides glassed they also make automatic wrist watches which cost about 300$. I couldnt find their official website though i could get listings from their dealers.
@0dc0b04d624f47b9eac4abe7d9d0e30a:disqus Is there a chance that you mean the Tag Heuer Carrera? Tag Heuer also makes some sun glasses but is well known for their Aquaracer, Monaco, Link and Carrera lines of watches. Like this: http://www.albeez.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/tag-heuer-carrera-1887.jpg
Or, do you mean Carrera Sunglasses – http://www.carreraworld.com/. I dont see any reference to watches. If you can post a photo of one of their watches I can try and track one down.
No, screw down crowns are generally seen on dive watches or watches that boast a water resistance in excess of 100M+. I have had many 100m or less watches that don’t have screw down crowns. It just depends on the watch and how tight that fit between the case and the crown needs to be.

How would you rate the mens Longine’s Grande Classique Ultra Slim
We haven’t been fortunate enough to review a Grande Classique Ultra Slim, sorry. I will look into it for you and see if we can get our hands on one.

I am concidering a tissot PRC 200 autoquartz but am having a hard time finding a solid review. Does anyone have any expeance or concerns with this watch? As far as entry level watch go Tissot seems to be a well respected brand so I am more concerned with the longevity and durability of this hybrid movement.

I am not talking about the “tag heuers”. I don’t know why they do not acknowledge their watches in their website. Here are some photos and links:

I also found some forums which contain some truly beautiful pictures of these watches. I also sent a mail to carreraworld asking them why their watch line did not have an online prescence.

Do all automatic watches have a screw down crown?
