Reporting from Geneva: Zenith’s New Elite 681 Ultra Thin
We’ve arrived in Geneva for SIHH 2010 and our first stop Sunday night was an event hosted by Zenith’s new CEO Jean-Fr��d��ric Dufour at the Hotel Kempinski to introduce their new line. The room was packed, and Jean-Claude Biver stopped by to lend his support. The featured model is the Elite 681 Ultra Thin. Though we have been in Geneva only a few hours, it is evident that the trend toward restrained, classic styles started in 2009 carries over to his year, and Zenith’s new model follows that mantra. It features a new ultra-thin 40mm-diameter case housing the extra-slim (3.81mm) Elite 681 self-winding caliber, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and providing a 50-hour power reserve.The case comes in a choice of 18-carat rose gold or stainless steel, while the sapphire crystal exhibition back provides a view of the movement with its tungsten oscillating weight adorned with C?tes de Gen��ve.The domed sapphire crystal has anti-reflective coating on both sides provi

Advice for young Patek enthusiasts
Hi everyone, I do not post a lot on here, but spend a lot of time lurking and am just amazed at the individual pieces and whole collections that you all have on here (you know who you are ). I really love fine watch making and aspire to own a Patek one day, let alone multiple. However, I am young and paying off school loans in the six figures and it seems like such an unreal goal. My watches have all been gifts to me by generous and loving people in my life, so I'd really like to eventually buy the Patek for myself. I was wondering if any of you had any advice or guiding principles that helped you accomplish your goals or acquire your collection? To see these pieces on your wrists, I know you're doing something right! Best
