Baselworld 2015: New Versions of the Glash��tte Original PanoMaticLunar and PanoReserve (Updated with Live Photos)
A line extension doesn't just add one more version of the same watch. By offering different color and material combinations with a familiar movement, a brand can reconsider a watch model, or it can highlight links between different models by dressing them in similar clothes. This latter option is what happens with Glash��tte Original's new Pano offerings, which it presented for the first time at Baselworld 2015. The Saxony manufacture is bringing out new editions of its PanoMaticLunar and PanoReserve watches, each in a black or a blue theme.Until now, the Glash��tte Original PanoMaticLunar was available with a white or anthracite dial. The two versions that will come to market after the Basel fair are in matte black (with a rose-gold case) and dark blue (with a stainless-steel case). The dials are made at Glash��tte Original's dial factory in Pforzheim, Germany. Over 40 operations are needed to make and finish the dial, including the meticulous process of galvanizing it to achieve the pro

Tissot T-Touch 'Pocket Touch' Watch
The Tissot Pocket Touch is an interesting item with a distinct niche appeal which transforms the extremely popular Tissot T-Touch collection into a pocket watch. watches-dealer recently reviewed the new Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar watch here, which was new for 2014 (and will have some 2015 updates). The also new for 2015 Tissot Pocket Touch is aimed at outdoor adventurers or anyone else needing a highly functional Swiss quartz watch with an environmental sensor array (or perhaps anyone else who thinks the T-Touch is cool but already has a timepiece, or doesn't want to wear one). The Pocket Touch works just like T-Touch watches, in that the user activates the sapphire crystal screen to become a touch screen.Pushing various points on the edge of the dial (or in the center) activates features such as a compass, thermometer, altimeter, barometer (Meteo), chronograph, alarms, and second time zone. The Swiss ETA caliber E48.311 quartz movement also includes a calendar and back-light function

grey versus AD
Hi all,I'd appreciate any expertise and opinion. Given that I've never purchased or have a relationship with an AD, should I expect to pay full MSRP plus tax from an AD, or maybe just MSRP? I'm asking specifically for a popular piece like the BLNR, granted I can find one. Aside from the experience of purchasing brand new from an AD and focusing sheerly on cost, I'm trying to figure out at what price it'd be about the same if I bought from a BNIB from the grey market, even if it's marked up. Anything else I'm missing? Thanks.
