Breitling for Bentley Celebrates 10 Years With 3 New In-House Chronographs
Ten years ago, Breitling launched its Breitling for Bentley watch collection on the heels of Bentley winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. To pay tribute to the first decade of collaboration between the Swiss watch brand and the British luxury carmaker, Breitling has launched the first three Breitling for Bentley watches equipped with Breitling manufacture movements.The new Breitling for Bentley timepieces are the Bentley B06, Bentley B04 GMT, and Bentley B05 Unitime. Each has a self-winding chronograph movement (based on the groundbreaking Breitling B01, the brand’s first-ever in-house movement) with a column wheel, vertical coupling clutch and a power reserve of more than 70 hours. (For more on Caliber B01’s development, see our in-depth historical profile of Breitling.)

RGM Launches the First USA Series-Made Tourbillon
RGM Watch Company announces the launch of America’s first serially-produced tourbillon movement, the Caliber MM 2 “Pennsylvania Tourbillon”. The company’s new flagship mechanical movement will be produced by hand at its Lancaster, Pennsylvania facility and it will power a small, numbered series of watches available both as a standard model and as custom-ordered pieces.Housed in a 43mm x 12mm case of either steel or 18k gold, the movement presents a symphony of layers and textures, showcasing many great elements of traditional watchmaking practiced by RGM. Finely polished components share space with brushed elements and perlage. Wheel cocks borrow their shape from the RGM 801 in-house caliber introduced in 2008, and from classic American movements of yesteryear. The spokes of the wheels continue this theme. A 7-tooth click and winding wheels with wolf's teeth are immersed in plates with subtle striped damaskeening. The movement is made of the finest quality tradi

Better ceramic...
I've just red that the ceramic of the white diver, is a super ceramic, 9 times harder than steel, and at 1850 vickers when the ceramic of the black model is at 1350 vickers.Won't make me change my mind and go for the white but if what they say is true the watch is almost indestructible.That makes quite a few divers to choose from, even if they are being discontinued for some.Here's the pics of the ones I know of, which do you prefer?I prefer ceramic, then FC then tantalum, then SS, black and last white dial ap_image.2696478.jpgap_image.3251538.jpgIMG_9011.jpgaudemars-piguet-qeii-cup-2014-royal-oak-offshore-diver-limited-edition.620.316.s.jpgL1040322.jpg

Have a very old Omega Constellation
Have an old Omega Constellation 18k face I think? with a leather wrist strap, my question is the face is all scratched, can I have the watch tuned up and replace the face to saphire crystal? also do they sell a leather strap that is Omega? seems when my dad replaced the strap he just used a regular leather strap. I would want the orig. omega strap.Where can this be done, any watch maker with good skills (I know one, who replaced the crown on my Tag Heuer) or does it have to be an Omega dealer?thanks for your help!!BTW... I was looking on ebay and saw a watch that looks exactly like it, it was listed as Constellation 18k I think. I think only the hour markers and watch arms are 18k right?
