SIHH 2015: Greubel Forsey GMT Black (Updated with Live Photos and Price)
Greubel Forsey, a brand known for its ambitious, innovative multi-tourbillon watches, introduced its own singular take on the classic world-time watch in 2011. A new execution of the succinctly named Greubel Forsey GMT, with a blackened titanium case, debuted this week at SIHH 2015.The case of the Greubel Forsey GMT Black is made of titanium and treated with vacuum-deposited ADLC (amorphous diamond-like carbon), which gives the timepiece not only its sleek, deep black look but also a surface hardness substantially harder than that of natural titanium. A black treatment is also applied to the mainplate and bridges of the movement, in-house Caliber GF05, making for a more restrained color palette intended to bring out the contrast of the textures and hand-finishes on various parts of the movement.Like its predecessors in gold and platinum cases, the Greubel Forsey GMT Black has a 24-second tourbillon with 25-degree inclination (tourbillons are standard in Greubel Forsey watches), along w

Fonderie 47 Transforming Cufflinks By Roland Iten
While these cufflinks are not a watch and don't tell the time, they are closely related to the watch industry. They are also the first cool item from an interesting brand which has just officially made its debut.The brand is Fonderie 47 (which I will explain more below) and the man who designed these cuff links for them is Roland Iten - a friend and very talented inventor who conceives things like the world's most expensive belt buckles. Now he has designed what is likely the world's most complicated and expensive cuff links. Check out my coverage and video of a Roland Iten belt buckle here.Roland Iten has not yet produced a watch, though he has designed a number of concept watches that if ever made will be truly incredible. Roland Iten's workshops is actually part of the Richemont Group and his inventions are both useful and luxurious.The Fonderie 47 Cufflinks are a shining example of the type of things that Roland can dream up. And as far as I know this is the only item that he has p

Caring for a Breitling
So how do you guys care for your 'Lings? Do you use a winder? What if you actually use it for diving, how do you care for it after exposure to salt water? What do you use to clean a Breitling, just to get off the grime that accumulates after extended periods of daily use? Do you guys have any secrets or tips that you're willing to share? This is my first expensive time piece, and I really love it, so I want to make sure it stays well maintained. Thanks for any and all responses.
