Ballast Valiant BL-3105 Skeleton Automatic Watch Review
What do you get when you combine a large, sporty dive-style case with a skeletonized mechanical movement? Something like this Ballast Valiant ref. BL-3105-02 watch. A piece like this doesn't fit into any of the traditional watch categories and that is because this, my friend, is what we call a fashion watch. Does that make it bad?

Portero Mini Review: Mediorce Used Watch Retailer Disguised As An Auction Site
As though I needed any reason to keep on using eBay, my experience with Portero does just that. eBay has a very good thing going on. Last I checked, it is the 9th most visited website in the United States, and on the watch front, enjoys an impressive volume of inventory daily.
