BEST FROM: watches-dealer & Friends May 23, 2014
There are new watches galore as we check out new timepieces from a wide range of price points, including a modified Seiko inspired by Blancpain's Fifty Fathoms, Nomos' new Metro watch, A. Lange & S?hne's exquisite Zeitwerk Striking and Greubel Forsey's mad GMT watch. We also explain why Audemars Piguet have chosen to collaborate with the Atlanta Hawks and how negative comments can actually make watches more desirable and boost sales. Finally, we catch up with an Instagram vigilante who has been calling out people wearing fake watches.1. Answering The Question Of Who watches-dealer Works ForAs a journalist in my day job, I totally understand where Ariel is coming from and I find it troubling when readers are misguided by our intentions and believe us to be working for the brands.

Hublot GreenGo Bang Watch: To Celebrate Partying
Have you been to the Gstaad Palace? No? Well, then I am sorry to say that you probably don't know about GreenGo - the popular club that is now celebrating its 40th anniversary. I don't think it has changed since it was created. According to their site (and images), the club remains in its 1970s era fittings. Looks like what would happen if you built a lounge in an underground pool that just happened to double as a dungeon. Though for this Californian, the name of the 'hot spot' is just "gringo." What is more funny is that the watch almost has the colors of the Mexican flag on it.According to GreenGo's website. It is open only during the winter (what, no one visits Gstaad during the summer?), and is "THE place to be. It is a special place with a special environment." Doesn't get more specific than that right? The copy on their site is totally cheesy, which amuses the hell out of me. "[The DJ] plays the most popular and up-to-date songs for our illustrious clientele. Come and feel the rh

15202st vs 15202or vs 15305st
Hey guys so my 39mm Panda Dial ROC was my first nice watch and I have always thought of it as a keeper. However, service is due next year and come to think of it, I have rarely worn the watch at all since my collection has grown a lot in the past 2-3 years due to the fact that the single fold clasp is extremely uncomfortable for my wrist. I'm considering replacing it with one of the three choices listed above and would like to hear thoughts on which you all prefer. The replacement has to be a Royal Oak for me because it is what got me interested in horology in the first place. Also versatility is not a concern for me as this will be in rotation with a other watches. Thanks in advance!

The true reason the Nautilus is impossible to get
The person who started the trend is Future. He was the first rapper to constantly bring up Patek in his songs over and over. For some of you who don't know who he is, he was by far the biggest hit maker of 2015 2016 and 2017.His other buddies from Atlanta, the Migos have been rapping non stop about Patek. Some of you might scoff and say it's because of (whatever your reasoning)When you have the NUMBER ONE artists in the world for the past four years talking 24/7 about wearing Pateks, you have the demand that now follows. These guys aren't wearing 36mm perpetual calendars or dress calatravas. Nautilus, Nautilus, and more Nautilus. Mainly because it's sporty and since it's on bracelet, you can flood it with diamonds.Since Rolex is so abundant, these guys had to go the next level to blow cash. (Patek and AP)These guys also are half the reason the 15407 is a pain in the ass now too.I know this is a tough pill for some of you to handle but it's 100% the truth. The number one selling music g

What about a Turn o Graph
ChapsI now have 5 Rolex, these being :- 39mm Explorer 214270, Freccione 1655, Sub 16610, Zenith Daytona 16520 and a 16710 GMT Coke.That was going to be it, but I sort of fancies a DateJust and was wondering about a Turn o Graph as it is a little bit different from the usual models.I have noticed that it rarely gets discussed here and I was wondering if there is a reason for this or is it just plain unloved. and would I be better off with a conventional DJ ?Does anyone have any wise and learned comments on this ?RegardsMick
