Patek Philippe Horology Programme Of New York Watch School
A career path in watchmaking is not something very often offered to kids leaving school. Before we know it, we're off to college or straight into the world of work without so much as acknowledging the continued existence of horology. These days, I'm so ingrained in the watchmaking industry, it stuns me when people express amazement that assembly and after-sales processes are performed by real humans, not super-accurate machines. But you needn't spend much time at the knee of an old watchmaker to understand why. The mechanics of haute horlogerie are not quite the same as anything else. And it isn't about intricacy, per se, it's about experience; it's about all the silly little things that don't make rational sense; simply put, it's all about time. Patek Philippe have underlined their understanding of this fact by investing in an on-site school at their New York service centre.By running a two-year course, dubbed the Patek Philippe Horology Programme Of New York, focused on equipping new

luxurious Cartier Ballon Bleu Extra-Flat Watch
The labels have no sense, but they are fun to say. As you can see, the ball blue flat Extra is pretty darn thin on the wrist. Cartier is not even publish the thickness of the case. I didn't measure it check out, but now I can not say the measure. Then how flat is the watch? Extra flat.To be fair, the actual thickness of a thin watch really matter unless you want to ask you the thinnest in the world, as is the case with certain Piaget watches.

Problems of having an enabler for a partner
Went shopping yesterday and browsed through a watch shop and my partner gave the nod for another watch. So my new arrival last night and one that arrived through the post this morning. A late afternoon shopping trip ended with this, I love the dial very unusual. This is my first rose gold but I really like itThis arrived through the post, I ordered the other day and quote like it, the dial is unusual.

You want a SECOND watch?!?!
2018 is lining up to be pretty exciting for me. I won't go into big detail other than I have been waiting for this since last Krismas. To celebrate I want to get myself a new watch. I currently own a white 116520 Daytona that I absolutely adore. I've worn it every day for the last three years and I almost hate to consider a second watch; but this will be a life altering occasion and I want to celebrate myself juust a little.I am going to set a price range of about $10-25K. This simply means I don't need to max out my budget to enjoy myself. Since the last giveaway I've been looking at the 116610LV(hulk), I am also really interested in trying on the new SS SkyDwellers(white/black/blue all great) and the SD43. A personal goal watch of mine would actually include the YG Daytona with green face a la Connor McGregor(116508); but I wouldn't ditch mine, nor own two Daytonas from the get go. I would love to hear about some other references you guys own and enjoy, Rolex or not. I am also okay w
