Antoine Martin Tourbillon Astronomique Watch Is $565,000
Antoine Martin has rightfully earned itself a special place in the heart of hardcore watch enthusiasts with their Slow Runner piece and its huge, gracefully oscillating balance wheel exposed at the caseback. But there is another side to the brand, one that offers more traditional complications, re-interpreted to fit into the rather well-defined styling cues of the brand. In 2012, Ariel went hands-on with their perpetual calendar and tourbillon model, and today we are debuting the Tourbillon Astronomique, a watch they also refer to as their "Masterpiece No. 1". Now, that is a name that we find rather fitting for what is an incredibly complicated piece that fuses more traditional features with a number of unique astronomical indications.Looking at the list of features and the actual dial of the Tourbillon Astronomique, it gives the impression of a watch that was intended to be complicated in the first place, but then somehow morphed into a watch maker's wet dream, comprising an array of

Nomos Orion 38 Datum Review
Here at w&w, we do a poor job of hiding our enthusiasm for Nomos Glashuette. They are one of those brands that the mere mention of always gets our hearts pounding.

Family Picture (233)
First of all, I'd like to give a huge thank you to the whole forum who was so helpful in my process of learning the way of the P, picking the perfect first P for me, and then the inevitable accessorizing!I've been loving my 233 for the last several months, and to say its a versitile watch is a huge understatement. Admittedly, I might have gone a bit overboard in the strap department, but its all personal preference at the end of the day and they all just wear so differently and give the watch a new feel every day.Without further ado, here's the crew! Any loves/hates? Questions? Anything else I'm missing????
