Fonderie 47 Inversion Principle Tourbillon Watch In Red Gold
Fonderie 47, the company whose premise it was to use luxury product dollars to help clear Africa of AK-47 assault rifles released their first luxury watch, the Inversion Principle Tourbillon, in 2013. The mega-challenging timepiece was designed by Switzerland-based watch creator Adrian Glessing and produced by David Candaux, and focused on the idea of putting a series of retrograde indicators around a centrally-mounted tourbillon. The company began with a series of luxury jewelry products, but the ultimate goal was to have a watch collection to act as the face of the Fonderie 47 brand's products - at least for men.For 2014, Fonderie 47 returns with an 18k rose gold version of the Fonderie 47 Inversion Principle Tourbillon after the initial limited edition of just 20 pieces. To chat about the Fonderie 47 Inversion Principle Tourbillon and the brand overall, I caught up with Fonderie 47 co-founder Peter Thum, who was wearing a prototype of the 18k red gold Fonderie 47 Inversion Principle

I need your opinion for first AP
Hey there friends, since i started collecting watches Ive been in love with AP watches, considering them the best of the best, and right now im able to get my first one, the question is, what should I get for my first AP? the two options I have in mind is the AP Royal Oak 15400 black dial or the AP Diver. Thanks a lot for your opinion!

5167 Bezel replacement
Any idea how much it would cost to replace the 5167 bezel? Scratches are deep enough and some on the edges that I don't want to risk polishing it to make it worse...

Keep PAM 557 or swap it for PAM 346
Thinking that all I have is an itch ; and all I need to do is to let it take its course and do nothing. Or maybe I am up to something. Doesn't matter , is fun to hear out opinions and things that never crossed my mind. It matters to me things like resale , coolness , scarcity , etc Also I also had the idea that Luminor with the crown guard is the staple of Panerai ; but it also true that the original Panerai is the Radiomir This Radiomir brings a power reserve in the back, date and seconds that my 557 doesn't . But the 47 case and the Vintage allure of the 557 has its magic as well. Kind of a catch 22 Shot !

US Customs duty
Hi, first time poster. Just bought my first Rolex at the AD in St. Lucia. DJII, SS/WG, silver dial. When reading up I saw a few questions here about US Customs. Here's my experience this evening.Duty charged at Newark was 3%. That was applied only to the balance after my duty-free allowance of $800. I.e., (price - $800) x .03 = dutySmall change, and it took all of 10 minutes to present my receipt and pay by credit card.
