Parmigiani Bugatti Mythe Piece Unique Watch
The Parmigiani Bugatti Mythe timepiece will be one of three piece unique watches unveiled this weekend during the Pebble Beach auto show events (Concours de Elegance), to help celebrate Parmigiani's ten-year relationship with the very high-end car maker Bugatti. It was in 2004 that the first Parmigiani Bugatti watch was released, and since then we've seen a range of highly avant garde timepieces produced via the formal agreement between the two brands.While there has been a range of Parmigiani Bugatti watches over the years the new Bugatti Mythe watch is related to the original Parmigiani Bugatti Type 370 (some images in this article). Born during a time of great horological design experimentation, the Type 370 was meant to be a very novel-looking "driver's watch." The idea being that when worn, the wearer would view the time from the side. The movement was designed to be laid out horizontally, and the entire case was meant to be reminiscent of the front hood and engine section of a cl

Parmigiani 114 Watch Features Telescopic Hands In Homage To Antique Timepiece
I presume the above watch (update: called the Parmigiani Ovale I believe) will be officially released very soon (SIHH 2012 at the latest). It will actually be unveiled (not sure in its complete form) at a special "Mechanical Wonders" exhibition Parmigiani is involved in held in New York City from around October 26 - November 26 2011 (at the La Vieille Russie) . As you can see, the special novelty is a modern recreation of a complication that is over 200 years old - and the original solution to the short hands problem!I believe that I have actually seen the antique pocket watch below at some exhibit in Europe. Signed by Vardon & Stedmann, the beautiful piece is in an oblong gold and decorated case with an enamel dial. The real fun is in the hands. The watch makers created two telescopic hands that automatically get longer or shorter depending on where they are pointing to on the dial. Even back then there were people like me who hated short hands, and didn't want to limit themselves

Sinn Introduces the 240 ST, 104 ST SA A, EZM 3F and 903 St B E
Last year at Basel, Sinn built on their collection by introducing watches boasting a lot of proprietary tech. Though admittedly cool, watches like the EZM 9 TESTAF and the EZM 13 were also very expensive, primarily because of all the technical elements Sinn packed into them. For 2015, Sinn returned to Basel with a slightly different strategy in mind, one focused on introducing more affordable entry-level pieces into the Sinn family. Most of Sinn's offerings this year were toned down and accessible both in terms of versatility and pricing, and include some variations of well-established pieces as well as a few entirely new models.Sinn 240 StThe 240 St is essentially the 3-handed brother of the impressive 140 St, Sinn's nod to their space flight history featuring their SZ01 movement. In case you don't know, the SZ01 is a highly modified 7750��about 50% of the movement is rebuilt using Sinn parts that are manufactured in-house. What makes the SZ01 especially cool is that it is designed to

Pocket watch identification
I've seen this picture of a very beautiful Patek Philippe pocket watch in their banner and I'd like to know if someone knows the reference of this watch, as I'd like to see some more pictures instead of this small one.
