Sinn 103 St Flieger Chronograph Review
The Sinn Flieger 103 line is a staple of the brand's collection, and features a number of models with broad variation in design, complication and finishing. The 103 St we're reviewing is arguably the most simple and classically designed of them all, with base Valjoux 7750 movement, polished case and acrylic crystal. Other 103 models expand on the line's core design to include titanium cases, GMT functionality, sapphire crystal and, of course, Sinn's signature technologies such as DIAPAL (lubricant free escapement) and Ar-Dehumidifying which prevents moisture from building within the watch case as it ages. Even the 103 Classic, modeled after the original 103 A of the 1960's now features proprietary technology. These more sophisticated enhancements have become a calling card for Sinn since the brand was sold in 1994 from Helmut Sinn, its founder, to Lothar Schmidt.

Introducing: The Frederique Constant Manufacture Perpetual Calendar, A Full Perpetual Calendar Under $10,000
If we had to pick one trend that seems to most characterize Baselworld 2016, it'd probably be the pursuit of better value for consumers – or at least, the attempt to create for consumers the impression that watches can offer better value, relative to the competition. One of the most notable manifestations of this direction was the Manufacture Perpetual Calendar – a full perpetual calendar, developed and made in-house, by Frederique Constant, which will cost under CHF 10,000 at launch. In fact, the starting price is just CHF 8,350. 1 OF 7 As hard as it may be to believe, this is a full perpetual calendar, automatic, made in-house. Frederique Constant's stock in trade has always been affordable luxury, and while over the last decade the overwhelming majority of luxury watch brands have incrementally increased pricing to the point where may potential clients for fine watchmaking have simply been largely priced out of the game, Frederique Constant has kept

had been looking out for this 15450BA for some time now, and lucky enough to find one at a price i couldn't say no to.couldn't be more thrilled.the feel of it on the wrist is simply WOW.i thought the 36mm president felt impressive...this is another level altogether.unfortunately, i will need to figure out which few pieces need to be moved out of the collection in order to keep this one around. will post some comparo shots later on.but had to put it on the wrist for immediate satisfaction.

AP 15300ST Back from New England
As it is now a tradition with me, I like to post pictures of my travels and my watches. This weekend my wife and I headed to New England for a long weekend at her boss' house in New Hampshire. While we were there, we also visited Maine and Boston. We had an amazing time and I hope the pictures show you a little bit of what we enjoyed. We had tons of steamed lobster, lobster rolls, steamer clams, haddock and wine. Their house is just gorgeous with tons of grapevines around, hummingbirds, deer and chipmunks. In Maine we visited the Kittery Trading Post, York, Cape Neddick aka Nubble Lighthouse, Perkins Cove, Marginal Way Lighthouse and had amazing lobster rolls at the #1 place in Maine for lobster rolls called the Foot Bridge Lobster. While in Boston we walk around all over the place including the North End and took some great pictures from the Top of the Hub at the Prudential building. Also stopped by European Watch Co. on Newbury street. Great selection of APs, Pateks and other 'haute
