Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Extra-Thin Watch
As there is a deep place in my heart for wild and complex watches, so too is there is place in my heart for the tasteful and simple. Honestly, some days you want a watch that soothes and elevates, as opposed to one that boggles the mind. The Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Extra-Thin is really a poster child timepiece of the new movement towards simple, minimalistic, think watches. If you can afford it, this watch is a stunner. Priced at just under $20,000.Read my full article on the Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Extra-Thin watch at Haute Living here.

I need some 1968 speedmaster info please...
Hey all, I have a 68 speedmaster that was reworked last year, when fully wound what amount of power reserve would I expect and what time differences have you seen on your watches, say I set time to 18:00:00 and within 1-2 days with regular winding and not running the stopwatch, should I see a gain or loss of time within 1-2 min. or more? thanks for any input........ also when you pull the crown out to set time does the second hand for the watch stop [ mine keeps ticking] -Andy

Strap ideas for the BLNR
Hi all,I've been told I can expect my BLNR to come in within the next few months. I also had an AD place an order for a jubilee for me a few months back. Now that AD has said RUSA is pushing back on selling them a jubilee without a broken one needing replacement or sending in a head that would have had one (possibly wanting to service it too). While I haven't given up hope on getting the jubilee, I am looking at other options.First thing I did was purchase some custom end links to fill the gap between case and strap - those arrived yesterday. With the recent Jomashop Hadley Roma strap sale, I also bought a shiny black alligator strap with black stitching and a matte navy blue alligator with off white stitching. Those are pretty generic options that would work fine, but not really add much flare. I did see a picture of one on a mesh similar to the one I own already and though it looked great - but another watch friend hated it; just goes to show different strokes for different folks
