This year at Baselworld Rado introduces several new additions to its HyperChrome collection.Rado's new HyperChrome watches make use of an unusual material.

Bring a Loupe: A Magnificent Vacheron Constantin And Many Tool Watches From Aquastar, IWC, And Unive
This week's Bring A Loupe will present to you an outstanding Vacheron Constantin with a glorious case. Then comes a round-up of great tool watches, but here is the catch - none are from Rolex. Instead we preferred to surprise you with some less expected watches from Aquastar, IWC, and Universal Geneve - all fantastic in their own right. This is your Bring A Loupe for October 9, 2015. A Rare Vacheron Ref. 4790 With An Incredible Case 1 OF 11 The case of this Vacheron Constantin deserves a good close look: I have rarely seen such an interesting build in such dreamy condition. The articulated lugs are absolutely spectacular, especially complemented by this intact case. Interestingly, the pink-gold case has a very modern 20 mm lug width, and it is almost 40 mm long, including lugs. I actually discovered in a previous auction that this Vacheron houses the famed 1001 movement, engineered from a Jaeger-LeCoultre ebauche and showcasing impeccable finishing.This Vachero

Intrigued by AP
Guys, as a loyal Rolex and Breitling enthusiast, I can't help but notice the AP ROO pics I see here but have never seen one in person nor a dealer in Massachusetts. Does anyone know if there is a MA dealer so I can try one on?AP's website doesn't show one, but I think that is more for AP boutiques than dealers.

Does anyone know
Does anyone know what watch the TV evangelist Creflo Dollar wears? It looks like a Chronomat just not sure but its stunning never seen anything like it. Im wrapping my brain around trying to figure it out. It may not even be a Breitling.

Finally got to play with the 5131P.
Hey guys just thought I'd share few snaps from my recent visit to the Geneva salon visiting my friend that works there.. My priority was seeing the 5131P and have to say it didn't disappoint, it's a very heavy piece and think the bracelet looks great on the watch even though it makes it look abit too blingy. Still it works very well. Found bracelet abit too flimsy around the clasp area though.. It's my holy grail ever it since it came out but don't think there is any chance to get this piece. In saying this I still think the 5131R is the best of the bunch in terms of vibrant dial and warmth of the rose gold.Good luck to those in the running for a P.[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn/20170701/66119520fd5057fa89e40896a2f27cd0.jpg[/IMG]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
