Baselworld 2013: The Watch Content You Demand
For watches-dealer coverage of Baselworld 2013 watches and other new products, we are going to follow in our own footsteps based on what seemed like effective?coverage of SIHH 2013. What does that mean? Well, starting this year, we thought it would be interesting to focus first on covering those products and brands that watches-dealer audience members said they wanted to read about. That way, the community is able to request what they see first from the show.Once again, we will focus on covering the show on the watches-dealer website, as well as the watches-dealer YouTube channel, watches-dealer Instagram feed, Twitter, and most importantly on the watches-dealer Facebook page. If you follow the Facebook page you'll pretty much get all the content in one place, which includes links to new articles here, as well as YouTube videos and random pictures we upload on Instagram throughout the show. Apparently, we've started a trend, as we are seeing everyone and their grandmother's watch blog

Pita Barcelona Carousel Watch Available On James List
The full line of Spanish Pita Barcelona watches are now available on James List. This includes the fascinating and highly character rich Pita Carousel. At first glace the watch is certainly unique, but you might not fully understand this bespoke creation. Each Pita Carousel watch is totally customizable - and made to order. The watch is 40mm wide? (just 8mm thick) and available in 18k yellow gold, rose gold, or white gold. There is also the option of getting one in 950 platinum. The Carousel watch has its name for good reason. This is because the movement is visible right through the dial and spins around (like a carousel). The movement spins as it tells the time. Thus the movement rotates on its own axis. The watch is known as a 12 hour hand watch. Meaning it has just one hand that moves around the dial once each 12 hours. The hand itself does not move, but rather it is attached to the movement that is what moves.Pita really likes crownless cases, and the Carousel is a good example of

Never seen one before
I thought I'd share with you one I came upon last night. Serial #1 out of 20 made. You should hear the chimes for the hour and minutes. An amazing piece..

After 4 years...
I still love it as much as I did day 1!

16570 Explorer price boom?
Anyone see the undervalued 16570 explorer 2 hitting a price boom anytime soon? I only wonder this because - the pre-ceramic GMT models are driving up as rapidly as bitcoin it seems in the last year or so (blows my mind). The 16570 is the exact same thing inside and out without a rotating bezel and GMT on the dial... I sold a 2004 ref. for 3k 2 years ago and it still took 2 weeks to move. I see them slowly rising now but nothing like its GMT counterpart. Needless to say, back in the market for one to be my future cockpit watch.
