Watch What-If IWC Big Pilot Top Gun Miramar
"Watch What-If" is a special column on aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer that asks the playful question "what if an iconic watch you know and love was offered in a different style?" The idea embraces a good timepiece's core design and has fun by offering new colors and material concepts to stimulate your senses. These ideas may be provocative, artistic, or just plain silly. This is about fun, Photoshop, and the celebration of wrist watch design and experimentation. The original design we work off will always be at the bottom of the article. The designs are brought to life by Beau Hudspeth who does the artwork and concepting after he and I choose the models and styles to focus on. These special design experiments are extremely time consuming and labor intensive but we hope you enjoy the results. Ideas and comments are more than welcome. Enough response may even lead to a round two of design of the same watch - so please comment below. You are also encouraged to suggest watches that make it into

A plethora of platinum and a rg and a steel interloper!
This is one heavy box!

Reuniting w an old friend
Had my AP in for svc as it was running slightly fast. Watchmaker noted that it needed additional lubrication in several areas of the movement. So they basically cleaned and serviced the movement of my 15400. Just got it back after almost 4 weeks. Love at 1st sight. Had to laugh at the vacuum sealed capsule - ImageUploadedByTapatalk1374606247.436599.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1374606089.770602.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1374606106.155885.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1374606123.489997.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1374606135.288602.jpg
