The Jaquet Droz Only Watch ’09
The Jaquet Droz Only Watch ’09, a unique Grande Seconde, combines a Grand Feu enamelled dial created using an 18th century technique with a case made of 21st century high tech ceramic. This unique timepiece proudly displays a rare red dial – red being the color of Monaco, the home of Only Watch. Creating the red dial required all the know-how of the most skilled craftsmen. An ivory colored enamel dial needs about ten layers to achieve the right color, and each layer must be fired at 800��. Black requires 15 layers and 15 firings, and blue 19. Red needs 22 layers. Each layer requires a new firing, and each firing creates the risk of breakage, bubbling, or both.Manuel Emch, CEO of Jaquet Droz, says it took the company 6 years to find a way to stabilize the red dial. “It is the first time we have created a completely red enameled dial and, given the complexity, it is probably the last, says Mr. Emch with a smile.Only Watch is an auction held every two years in Monaco.

Vintage Omega Dealer Wall Clock.
I saw this today and decided it would look good at my house. A little background....the Chancellor Hotel was a local hotel built in 1901 and torn down in 1977. I would guess the clock to be from the 60's. Works great.

Planning for the next crown
Hey all, need some opinionsCurrently I have 1) 1140602) 116710 ( bought it to be my boy s growing up watch)Recently I was blessed with the arrival of my little girl hence I am thinking of acquiring another crownBeen thinking of 1) hulk 2) 116613LNI really love the submariner range and I am thinking of retiring the 114060 for my Daughter. My mind is on the TT but it will be harder to wear on a daily basis. But the 116613LN has always been a grail ( not bluesy, I don't know why but it just don't sing to me) I really like the classic black and gold look.The hulk is growing on me as it reminds me of my little girl now hahaha she is a little fighter! But the price is atrocious ( talking of preowned here, almost the same price of the TT)no Batman please and no Daytona ( doesn't sing to me too)
