New Piaget Secrets & Lights Watch Collection Launches At Watches & Wonders 2015
PIAGET EMPERADOR COUSSIN XL LARGE MOON ENAMEL WATCHNew watches are being released all the time. Major brands are constantly tweaking their existing ranges to provide a new take on an old classic, a slightly different colorway to breathe life into a tired palette, a new complication slammed into an existing casebut it is rarer to see one of the big boys release a whole range of new timepieces at once. Today, on Wednesday September 30th, 2015, Piaget d��buts the new "Secrets & Lights" collection, with the tag-line "A Mythical Journey by Piaget."PIAGET ALTIPLANO SCRIMSHAW ENGRAVING WATCHThere's a lot going on here. The Piaget Secrets & Lights range features several new models in a variety of color schemes, bound by their shared inspiration: the historical Silk Route between Venice and Samarkand. The two cities each exert influence over the watches, with some mirroring the desert-inspired "Lights of Samarkand," while others explore the "Secrets of Venice." For me personally, this b

Frederique Constant Healey Chrono Automatic Watch For 2010
For a few years now, Frederique Constant has been in cahoots with the UK based Healey Challenge. An annual race operated by the Healey Drivers Club. What does Frederique Constant get do in this scene? Well make special limited edition watches that might be of interesting ti the Healey divers. I actually wrote about their last offering here, the most basic Frederique Constant Austin Healey watch. That was a three-handed model where this is a chronograph. Really when I think of race or motorcar themed watches, they have chronograph mechanisms. Thankfully Frederique Constant didn't insert the passe tachymetre scale on the bezel. Finally someone realizes that not all car oriented watches have to look like an Omega Speedmaster or Tag Heuer Carrera.While lots of classic car lovers are familiar with Austin Healey and cars, like the 3000 (below) and the Sprite, I would say that a club that races the cars and are dedicated only to them is the very definition of Niche.

5131G or J are hard to get right now?
What's the deal with this serie actually? Why is it hard to get? I have seen some prices on some websites that tripled the retail. Is this really the case?

Question for the SD 16600 lovers......
I'm currently looking at two seadwellers for sale, model 16600. Both are A serial numbers, one is a Swiss only dial and one is a Swiss made dial. I just want to be sure that the inserts are original on both. The Swiss only Dial has a pointed 4 insert, which is different than all A-serial pieces I have seen. They all seem to come with a flat 4 insert, which is the insert that is on the Swiss made piece for sale. I prefer the Swiss only watch because it is a complete set, but I'm concerned that it may be a service insert. Sorry I can't post any pictures as both watches are currently for sale and I don't want to violate the sellers in any way. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
