SIHH: Lange��s New Saxonia Thin
For 2011 Lange is redsigning the Saxonia family, and the new Saxonia Thin offers discrete luxury and classic elegance in a case that measures only 5.9mm thick. And at 40mm in diameter, the Saxonia Thin makes a stylish statement on the wrist.This is the thinnest timepiece crafted to date by the venerable Saxon manufactory. The strength of this piece is its focus on the essence of a watch: the time in hours and minutes, and nothing more. Yet despite this focus, the Saxonia Thin remains unmistakably A. Lange & S?hne. A few key details embody hallmarks of the brand: a well-balanced presentation, a succinct minute scale, svelte baton hour markers, and lancet hands blend harmoniously to inform all who see it of the deep roots behind this piece.To fit the thin case, A. Lange & S?hne developed an equally slim manually wound movement that can be admired through the sapphire-crystal caseback. The new caliber L093.1 has a diameter of 28 millimeters and is a mere 2.9 millimeters thick. The

Incoming 15202! (And some thoughts on the piece)
After 2+ years of deliberation I finally pulled the trigger. The 15202. The Jumbo. The iconic masterpiece from AP. I could not be more excited. First, let me say the watch is sublime. I had seen the Jumbo in stores before, but once you take the stickers off you truly realize just how amazing the level of finishing is. It is stellar. Second, as someone who has a bigger wrist, I was worried about how the 15202 may look. Would it be too small? Would the bracelet be too stiff?Well I am happy to report I absolutely love how it looks. It is a perfect fit for me. Yeah you see a little bit more bracelet from the top, but that's okay. And speaking of the bracelet... I love it. The bracelet has *just* enough lateral give in it to be comfortable on wrist, without being too rigid. It just forms to the shape of your wrist. Without further ado... a wrist shot!

My New Seamaster GMT
Arrived today, a 2534.50 Seamaster GMT 300m, 50th anniversary. This has always been my favorite Omega. Couldn't be happier!!

Had the call...
Following on from my thread asking your thoughts on the blue 5711 a few weeks back, I put my name down. I was told that they would have an idea on allocation next February.Currently on a two week med cruise and last week I had a call to say that they had unexpectedly received one and it was mine if I wanted. Wouldn't hold it until my return so I had to bank transfer the funds. That was done and I'll pick it up next week. I'm guessing I only had to wait 6 weeks, so I've been quite lucky.Never had a Patek and not bought from that shop before, though they own a small chain of Rolex AD's and I'm a fairly good customer.

Explorer 1 vs. Datejust 41
New member. First postI am a one watch guy and I am looking to purchase and keep for the long haul. 27 year old male, need something I can wear with slacks and a button up but also looks great in a t shirt and jeans. My decision has come down to two. Either the 36mm Datejust with the smooth bezel (silver dial) or the new explorer 1. I personally love them both so I'm asking you guys for help. What do you think and why?
