Botta Design Watches For Minimalist Perfection
Minimalism to me, means displaying as little as possible to be effective. A watch like the museum face on a Movado is barren. With just hands and a single indicator at the top, I never have any idea what time it is, at least not at a glance. There is no way to be really precise with such a watch. This is not minimalist in my opinion, it is lacking. Minimalistic watches on the other hand excel in providing just what you need, with the focus being on personifying the function of the device or machine. Botta watches provide exactly this type of focus, a watch purely telling the time.Botta Design Watches are designed using pure elements of minimalism and functional design. The appeal is in the symmetry and attention to just a few major lines and shapes to the watch. No complex transitioning or harsh contrasts, just a well thought out look that performs flawlessly. A watch face is supposed to measure the elapsation of time, along with providing an indicator of how much time is left in a giv

I decided that I would get me a watch! I sold a watch and eventually negotiation for a watch that I was looking for. His exactly what I wanted, because I wanted the Exploding numbers, but it is a version curator nice in white gold. Its a Franck Muller Casablanca 2852 white gold!

Ceramic Diver watch plots
I truly love my Audemars Ceramic DiverSometimes however I wonder however if I would like a more uniform look with respect to the watch plots if they came in black ceramic or darker titanium.Does anyone know if these plots are available?I called the Miami Boutique and they stated there are no AP options for this watch. Perhaps aftermarket?Thanks!

Rolex in Dubai Mall
Moving on from India...now in Dubai.Visited the Dubai mall this morning. Rolex only had two stainless steel professional models.Explorer 1 which worked out at around ?4950 compared to UK price of ?4800.The other was the yachtmaster with rhodium dual and cyan hands. Can�t remember the price exactly but just under ?10000.SS Daytona is a 3 year wait. No deposits or lists (apparently) but first come first serve.Guess I will have talk to my local AD to get my friend a submariner.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Polar Explorer II 16570
Hi all,This is my first post on the forum, so apologies ahead of time if these are dumb questions (though I've done my best to scour the internet/forums to get as much info as possible beforehand).I'm in the market for a watch with a GMT complication, and think I've settled on the Polar Explorer II, ref. 16570. It seems to be universally praised as being the best bang for your buck and also flies a little under the radar, which are both appealing of course. I know this particular reference has different combinations available (T < 25 vs. Swiss only vs. Swiss Made, holes vs. no-holes, non-SEL vs. SEL). I think I prefer luminova as opposed to tritium, as I would want there to still be some functionality there. I've read that Swiss only means luminova whereas Swiss Made indicates superluminova, but I've read inconsistent posts between the two. So Question #1 - is superluminova indeed superior to luminova in terms of performance (brightness/longevity), or is it simply a name change?Next
