MeisterSinger Benjamin Franklin Watch
Ol' Ben Franklin has been having a big month. Not only has the founding father been revealed as secondary mascot of the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team, MeisterSinger have released a watch honoring his life. It may seem strange to US citizens that a German brand would create a watch in homage to a famous American, but Benjamin Franklin is highly thought of in Europe as well as in his native New World. The release of the MeisterSinger Benjamin Franklin watch remembers the man who made such good use of the time he had on this Earth.A frequent visitor to England, Franklin was friends with some very important people in the London area. He was reputedly a member of Sir Francis Dashwood's Hell-fire Club that met in the chalk caves of West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. There, they discussed politics, pretty girls, and where to find the best pint of English ale. Franklin had an interest for horology, which was further stoked by a 1770 visit to England, where he happened upon famous horologist J

Do you consider an AP Royal Oak 15400 as dressy or casual?
I definitely consider it as a more dressy watch. That delicate little beauty just works better with formal attire I think.Also a reason I am holding back from buying this one. I barely ever wear dressy clothes, and just feel as though it doesn't work with casual attire (jeans/t shirt).I also love the offshore and considering one of those instead, because I feel it works better for casual dressers.What do you consider the RO 15400 as? Dress up and down both? Or a dressy watch?

2 days, 1 night...Baselworld, Le Brassus & Geneva
Baselworld was an experience, the Joux Valley was amazing (including lunch at AP's own hotel), and the Geneva boutiques were as wonderful as always!

Current WG Pepsi BLRO owners should not be upset
I'm not sure why current BLRO Pepsi WG users would be upset over this years release of a SS Jubilee Pepsi. You have a Pepsi bezel with oyster, which seems to be favored over Jubilee (I prefer latter). This is the ONLY way to have a Pepsi with an oyster and will likely remain this way.You have the black dial, which in my opinion looks better than the new blue dial, I have yet to see a side by side but I always like the way the black contrasted with the bezel.With one of the shortest runs , 3 years I believe, and not really a hot seller, this is one is destined to be a collectors item and maintain its value. It's not a common watch.I'm not sure about this last item, but the BLRO bezel seems to be more detailed with the transition of colors, in the renderings it looks like the new SS just cuts off from one color to the other with no transition. If true I think the WG bezel is superior, this point is null if they are using the exact same bezel.The BLRO was a niche watch for someone who kno
