HYT Watch Teaser - Who Are The Hydro Mechanical Horologists?
New high-end watch brand HYT is coming in 2012. I don't much except that the watch(es) will somehow incorporate liquid - green, possibly luminescent, liquid. One of the brand's principles is Vincent Perriard. Formerly CEO of Concord and then TechnoMarine. Perriard has been working quietly on HYT for a while now. In my opinion Perriard thrives when two things are in order. First, that he has a lot of creative freedom (I still think that TechnoMarine should have run his "Ocean Addict" ad campaign), and second, when he is able to work on a product that isn't limited by too many budget constraints.So who or what are the Hydro Mechanical Horologists? The world will find out soon, and I will keep you updated. For the time being enjoy the fun teaser video. Oh, and now I have been able to add an image of the watch caseback.UPDATE: I have now updated this article on HYT watches with images of the watch movement and information on what it does. The HYT watch will incorporate the world's first me

luxurious watch of Hublot Exclusively
At a dinner organized by le Tourneau and its more recent CEO James Suess, participants enjoyed a meal of celebrity chef Daniel Boulud. Thanks, Boulud received a special giant window wall clock for its cuisine. These wall clocks are customized for window and absolutely prized by collectors and fans of the brand. The fact that the biggest names of the porthole and Tourneau is presented for the dinner is a sign of the seriousness, each takes the partnership.

Seamaster Chronograph on my wrist
I'm posting a thread about an Omega on the Rolex Forums? Yup.While I am close to getting a Rolex, I decided that I would still purchase a chrono that I've been quite interested in for some time now. The Omega Seamaster Chronograph.Starting in less than a week but lacking the funds to buy a Rolex, this Omega will be the watch to accompany me to 29 States as I do a job for my employer. I'm very impressed by the build quality of this piece. The lume is incredible, the time keeping is definitely SOSC and if I were to compare this watch to another brand/make it would be IMO the Breitling Chronomat series. My boss who is a diehard Breitling guy had to admit that this watch is a pretty nice example from Omega, who he makes constant fun of. I may have planted some doubt in his mind I don't however like the pins in the bracelet and would prefer screws on this but I can live with that. So, here it is in a quick shot from my SLR.
