Pre-SIHH 2014: Introducing The Rotonde de Cartier Astrocalendaire (Live Pics & Pricing)
On Monday we showed you the new Calibre de Cartier Diver, the first in-house tool watch from the maison. Today we have something for you from the opposite end of the spectrum. Here is the Rotonde de Cartier Astrocalendaire, a perpetual calendar with a flying tourbillon that uses a multi-tier circular display for the perpetual calendar and a mechanism that is almost entirely free from the typical levers and springs. This is a seriously complicated watch that introduces a number of important new technologies, plus it just looks like it means business. 2 OF 15 Rotonde de Cartier Perpetual Calendar Chronograph Last year's SIHH saw the introduction of the Rotonde de Cartier Perpetual Calendar Chronograph, adding the benchmark pairing of complications to the Cartier stable.

Bye Bye 5712?
Hello everyone, this is an update to my 5712 jammed moon phase. I paid around 29,000 USD for my 5712 last year second hand from this reliable seller but won't put his name out, he offered me one 5712 for more than $29K it was around $31k but it had to many scratches and no papers. Then he offered me this 5712 for $29K with the box and papers so i couldn't resist (it was my first Patek) when i had that opportunity. I will soon go and talk to the store that sold me watch and ask for a trade or a refund *fingers crossed* (a full refund), i sent my 5712 to the AD but the cost of sending it there and the period of time it takes for them to send back an estimation is 4 weeks and i can't imagine the price to fix the moon phase. I don't think its worth sending it to get repaired since i would lose either way selling it with a lower price or selling it repaired. So i am not sure what my next watch would be or ill probably just stick to it with a broken moon phase.

Finally .....Just got the pair of Chronos I liked
The first one, classic, minimalist and elegant....The new arrival, practical, full of things to wonder about....I guess I finally got my perfect pair.....best

Nautilus confusion...
Hello allI had some time ago the 3800 in two tone which I really liked however it was just too small for my now 8 wrist. I have been considering picking up another Nautilus but am somewhat confused with the various measurements purported on various sales sites.Would someone be able to let me know what the largest case size Nautilus are either current or older models, and if there was more than one size in the earlier two tones which I really like? For example I see some listed as Jumbo??Any help appreciatedThanks

Cyclops problem?
