Nico Gerard Pinnacle Is Mechanical On Top & Apple Watch On The Bottom - For A Massive Price
The Nico Gerard Pinnacle watch that combines a mechanical timepiece with an Apple Watch is probably a good idea, but executed with a price that makes it utterly unrealistic. As we have said here time and again, smart watches are a growing segment, and one that we expect to continue covering for some time. Of course, probably the most anticipated smart watch release this year was the Apple Watch, though sales seem like they might be a bit off. If you find yourself in the camp of wanting an Apple Watch, and still want to wear your traditional mechanical watch, what are you to do? You could certainly wear a watch on each wrist. While that is something I have grown accustomed to, I realize that not everyone may be ready for that. That, then, leaves the option of leaving one of the watches at home, or figuring out how to get both onto a single bracelet. That is what we have here with the Nico Gerard Pinnacle.This is not the first time we have seen an Apple watch combined with a regular watc

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra-Thin Minute Repeater Flying Tourbillon "Hybris Mechanica 11" Watch Breaks New Record
Most everything about the new Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra-Thin Minute Repeater Flying Tourbillon watch is new, including six of the eight patents protecting the movement, the shape of the case that is inspired by a pocket watch from 1907, as well as the achievement the good people at Jaeger-LeCoultre have reached in regard to minimal case thickness for a grand complication watch. Even the beautiful dauphin-style hands are new. In one fell swoop Jaeger-LeCoultre's flagship timepiece for 2014 rewrites the formula for the perfect high-end dress watch. This is the type of watch that keeps us interested in horology and is easily a new grail piece for an entire demographic of watch collectors whose hearts have just skipped a beat. Let's proceed to discussing exactly what is so special about this new ultra-thin automatic minute repeater tourbillon from one of our favorite Swiss watch brands.A New RecordEverything about the design of the watch has a purpose, and we realize that unless you ar

New arrival: Omega SMP (blue ceramic)
In well lid conditions the blue color is really deep and noticeable. Turn off the lights and the colors, the bezel especially, will turn into different shades of grey in a very elegant way. The new non-wave dial gives the watch a bit more dressy look and feel.

Great News from Omega at last
After waiting patiently for several months and making a couple of posts on this matter my New and over due Speedmaster cal 9300 (two sub-dial 2011 version) is due in the country on the 25th November. As some members know from previous posts, I had paid for this watch back in August before it was released, expecting it in October which did not happen, even though they appeared in Omega Boutiques at that time. Eventually I decided to contact Omega Uk myself last week, asking for their intervention in this matter, which seemed to do the trick as a few days later I was told my speedmaster would be pulled from this next Omega import and gave guarantees that I would get the watch sometime the following week, which hopefully should be before the end of the month. I will post photos of this beautiful watch as soon as I can.

First ever "luxury" watch - Omega Speedmaster Professional 3573.50 c. 1863
Hi everyone,I'm fairly new to the luxury watch world, as I became very interested in timepieces just this past summer. As I'm turning 21 and beginning a career I feel this is the perfect time to have picked up this hobby, as I feel that a watch says a lot about a person.After many hours of research, I decided on the Speedy Pro Sapphire Sandwich - I couldn't possibly think of using the hesalite crystal as a daily (although I know some disagree) and am also extremely fascinated by the view of the movement, so my choice was a natural one.I hope to soon learn how to remove the bracelet so that I can try on the Perforated Racing strap that I ordered with the watch (it's just sitting there, teasing me). The AD who sold me the watch promised to guide me through the process over the phone next week. I'm trying to learn by myself as I tend to be impatient with eagerness, but so far none of the online guides have me confident enough to try (all I have is a small screwdriver, which is what my AD
