10 Unique Watches Up for Auction at Only Watch 2015
As watch-industry followers are surely aware by now, this fall will mark the sixth edition of Only Watch, a charity auction of unique timepieces whose proceeds benefit the Monaco Association against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. We’ve already shown you Tudor’s contribution to the biennial event; here are 10 more from 10 other participating watch brands.Blancpain has created a new version of its Traditional Chinese Calendar, with a 45-mm-diameter rose-gold case and a black grand feu enamel dial. The watch, which contains a Blancpain manufacture movement, combines aspects of both the Gregorian calendar and Chinese calendar; the latter includes leap months, signs of the Zodiac, symbols for the five elements and 10 celestial stems, and the 12 Zodiac animals that represent a 60-year cycle that is central to Chinese culture (for more detail on this ultra-complicated calendar watch, click here). Blancpain’s patented under-lug correctors are used to adjust all the indications.

My new Annual Cal addition...
Please allow me to share my latest addition... It seems I have a real weakness for two types of complications... Annual Calendars and GMT's.... Here is a watch that's been on my radar for a few months now... I finally got had the chance to pick one up last week... the 5205R! I went back and forth between the Black Dial and White Dial... Both stunning in there own way... finally went with the White Dial... Thanks for looking...

The Ref. 5101P Patek Philippe
This weekend whilst in Bahrain we went to a jewellery and watch exhibition. On the Patek stand they had the Ref.5101P Ten day power reserve tourbillon. I asked the guys on the stand where it was as I'd never seen one. To my surprise and without hesitation, they took it out of the armour glass display and placed it in my hand. What a beauty!! The price as far as I can work out is ��175,000!!! Brenda said I couldn't have it so I had to hand it back. I don't have any pictures because last year I went to the same event and almost got arrested for photographing jewels. Here's a link to an article on the watch. .thepurists/brandjpg/pp/sihh03/

One out one In
After one year affair with Breitling Chronomat decided to flip the watch and change the style. This morning unexpectedly came acorss this one and could not resist. Decision making process took me about 2 seconds and I am officially in the Club!Cheers, Will Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Your thoughts/opinions on the PAM 512 please
I'm interested in the 512, while I know that Panerais are considered sports watches in general I'm looking for a dressier 'dress casual' watch & I think the 512 fits the bill. Do others agree? Also, what's a good discount as a recently introduced PAM from an AD? Thanks in advance!
