SIHH: Lange’s New Saxonia Annual Calendar
At SIHH today Lange unveiled their new automatic winding Saxonia Annual Calendar. Available in white gold and in pink gold, the diameter is a modest 38.5mm, but the design focus was legibility and the watch is quite easy to read. The look is pure Lange and this piece offers much of the visual appeal of its perpetual calendar big brother. The movement features the famous Sax-O-Mat zero reset function which stops the movement when the crown is pulled out and resets the seconds hand to zero to allow easy syncronization with a reference time signal. The moon phase is accurate to within 1 day in 122 years. As an annual calendar, the date needs to be adjusted just once per yearplete technical information appears below the images, which you may enlarge with a click.The Saxonia Annual Calendar is priced at 27,500 euro in both white gold and pink gold.Technical DetailsMovement: Lange manufacture calibre L085.1 SAX-0-MAT, self-winding, crafted to the most exacting Lange quality standards and la

Hands-On: The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Ultra-Thin With Caliber 1120
This is a watch we loved a lot when we went hands-on with it at the SIHH. It’s part of the refreshed Overseas line of watches, and while it’s the sort of thing one expects from Vacheron Constantin, it’s still so nicely done and so well rooted in VC’s history that it rises above merely fulfilling expectations, and becomes something worth celebrating. 1 OF 6 The Overseas Ultra-Thin immediately struck us as reminiscent of the Vacheron Constantin 222, from the 1970s, which was along with watches like the Royal Oak and the Nautilus, part of the first generation of stainless steel watches with an integrated bracelet. All three watches, incidentally, were driven by the same movement: the Jaeger-LeCoultre caliber 920, which was the result of a development project that involved Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, and Patek Philippe. The Vacheron Constantin version of this movement is VC caliber 1120. 2 OF 6 When we first announced the Overse

APSC and the leather case
Anyone sent in your watch to APSC for any reason and got the watch returned with the leather pouch?I had sent in my watch for different reasons and apparently it came back once in ziplock with tapes and also sent in for water testing and came back with foam bags!

Drawn to the 116523 Daytona
I have found myself keep going back to look at the 116523 with champagne dial and batons with black\white sub dials Never considered a Daytona before although I think the Platona is a very beautiful piece as are the 500c,, I love the classic styling especially with black sub dials and although it would not bother me i would really like to know,, why there don't seem much love for this piece? That also seems reflected in its pricing,,,, Reply's much appreciatedSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

16610LV Random Serial Funny Story
Back in 2013, when I first acquire my Rolex, it was the Kermit 16610LV, this model has been in my wish list for long, till I have enough cash to pull trigger. I got the watch from a local private seller , which bought the watch in Dec 2010. In those day, I'm not that good in Rolex serial knowledge, I just need the 16610lv because of the green and black combination submariner. The local seller back then sell the kermit because he has got a new 116710blnr, he mention to me the 16610lv was a M serial, so I'm guessing he might have bought a NOS. We both went to local Rolex SC to verify the watch, and everything went good. Cash paid , watch with me till today. Until recently, a friend of my acquire a V serial, we have a watch session and comparing both serial. What come to a surprise to us is, he found out a funny serial engraving on my 16610lv rehaut, it's look like the M in the serial is engraved in the middle of the serial number . I was never aware of this since the day one I got the wa
