Christophe Claret Poker Watch For Luxury Wrist Gaming
Less than two weeks ago watches-dealer previewed the newest mechanical gaming watch by Swiss Christophe Claret. Able to play a full game of Texas Hold 'em, the Christophe Claret Poker is the most complicated mechanical gaming watch this or any other watch manufacture has ever produced. As we previously mentioned, this is the third and perhaps final in a collection of limited edition ultra-luxury "toy" timepieces meant for whimsy and fun, and the exploration of all that can be done in a time wrist-worn mechanism.It all started with the Christophe Claret Blackjack 21, but did you know that it was not what he intended to release first? In fact the Poker was to be his first gaming watch but it proved a bit more complicated than his team anticipated. So back in 2011 Christophe Claret released a watch that played Blackjack which would eventually lead up to the Poker watch piece now in 2014. We have yet to see the piece hands on, but look forward to giving you a full hands-on review after Mr.

Hands-On: With The Glash��tte Original Senator Chronometer Regulator (Live Pics & Pricing)
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of visiting Glashütte Original's manufacture in Saxony, and I was impressed with what I saw. This watch is a perfect example of what makes Glashütte Original a brand to watch. Released at Baselworld 2013, the Senator Chronometer Regulator is a modern take on the regulator longcase clocks that Glashütte was known for in the nineteenth century and both the dial and movement are worth taking a closer look at. 2 OF 14 The Glash��tte Original Senator Chronometer Regulator On The Wrist Starting with Glashütte Original's 42mm Senator case (in either red or white gold), the Chronometer Regulator is big enough to make the regulator layout highly legible while still sitting nicely on the wrist.

In-Depth: The Girard-Perregaux Constant (Force) Escapement, Explained
What is a constant force escapement, anyway? That's a question we've been getting A LOT recently. You see, the term is thrown around often in this day and age, and rarely is it an accurate description of what is going on. But, a few weeks back, Girard-Perregaux invited us over to Switzerland to see what they believe to be one of the first true constant force escapements to be unveiled, by anyone. And we tend to agree. In this post, we'll run you through GP's new "Constant Escapement," how it works, and why it's important. First things first, watch the video above, then read on. What's An Escapement? 1 OF 9 Animation courtesy of Wikipedia.org Before we get into what a constant force escapement is, it's important to understand what an escapement is in the traditional sense of the term. The escapement is essentially the component in a watch or clock that transfers the power stored in the mainspring (barrel) to the balan

Anyone got the new white diver?
Is it really limited edition of 200? I'm considering white vs. blue diver. Love the blue one but the fact that the white one is LE makes me lean towards it for a better resale value. Of course white strap would be swapped with the navy one from day one.Adding a poll as well.

Speedy Pro price in Italy?
I am heading to Rome in a few days and wondered if it's worth buying the speedy pro there, as opposed to Hong Kong? I'm not sure what is the 'street price' should be? It's around 5,000 USD in Hong Kong.Thanks
