H. Moser & Cie Venturer Tourbillon Dual Time Watch
Looking to combine something as practical as a two time zone watch with something as delicate and prestigious as a tourbillon? Well, Swiss H. Moser & Cie has the watch for you, with the lovely looking new H. Moser & Cie Venturer Tourbillon Dual Time. The watch also happens to feature the first tourbillon-based movement offered by H. Moser & Cie, and it contains dual hairsprings along with some other interesting features that I will discuss below. In short, H. Moser & Cie presents a tourbillon watch potentially capable of overcoming the accuracy issues inherent in many tourbillon watches. For those who understand tourbillons, this is a clear irony.From a design perspective, the H. Moser & Cie Venturer Tourbillon Dual Time very much fits into the larger H. Moser & Cie collection when it comes to aesthetics and simplicity. Looking deeper, you see 1960s watch design as well as Bauhaus influence. In many ways, the design DNA of H.

Introducing: The Piaget Emperador Coussin XL 700P (And An Old Japan Vs. Switzerland Controversy Revisited)
Piaget has just announced its first new piece for 2016, which we're going to see live at the SIHH in January. However, we've got a first look at it for you, right now, and it's something you might not have expected. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Piaget's in-house quartz caliber 7P – the company's first in-house quartz movement – it has released a hybrid quartz/mechanical caliber in its Emperador. Caliber 7P by the way was a very important step for Piaget and its small size (especially relative to the first commercial Swiss quartz caliber, Beta 21) made it possible for the firm to do amazing pieces like this one. The new caliber 700P is very different, however: it uses a conventional mechanical going train, powered by a micro rotor that winds the mainspring. At the end of the gear train there's no escapement; instead, there is a generator whose speed of rotation is controlled by a quartz timing package. The micro-rotor is at the 9-10 o'cloc

1st Incoming of 2015
And it's yet again another AP, yes another Diver. I guess my SS Diver needs a friend. Regardless my admiration for PP or Lange etc... I still tends to gravitate towards AP time after time. Saw this at the AP boutique in Ginza and end up picking it up. Funny how my opinion changes when one gets sufficient time to play with a watch. Quick impression. Very comfortable watch. Great finishing on the ceramic. Watch actually looks much better at night and in the flesh then on photos. More pics to follow later

Vintage Seamaster 30 on 1168 bracelet
I've been searching for a nice bracelet for my SM30 for a while now. finally, I found an 1168 with 605 end links. A very uncommon bracelet. Of course when I got it, it was one link too small. Damn. Luckily Ofrei had a spare and it arrived today. Fits perfectly. The he bracelet has a little stretch and there is some wear near the end links but I don't want that NOS look. A 50 year old watch should be on a bracelet of a similar vintage.
