Introducing The Blancpain Villeret Grand Date, A Favorite Upgrades To Two Windows
If one thing is certain about SIHH, it’s that it foreshadows Basel. And storming out of the gate for Pre-Basel 2015 is Blancpain’s new Villeret Grand Date. This watch is notable for a few reasons. There is a clever simplicity in applying the Aqualung’s (spotted here on Vladimir Putin’s wrist) signature date window to the Villeret. But, regardless of how clever and simple it may seem, applying such a window has the potential to go horribly wrong. Thankfully, Blancpain seems to have gotten it right.Earlier in the year, we celebrated Blancpain’s New NYC Boutique. In said article you’ll find a wristshot of the current Villeret with the date at 3 o’clock. While that design works, the Grand Date at 6 o’clock takes the design in a different direction. Notice that the opaline/crème-like shaded dial spans the date window as well. The printing of the date is bold, curvaceous, accentuated and now symmetrical to the Blancpain logo up top. &nbs

Thoughts on this 3590.50?
I've been looking for a tritium speedy, came across a 3590.50 at a decent price. Besides the case being heavily polished, is there anything I'm missing on the quality of this watch? 48.3m serial

Has anyone else done a 180 on the Cellini Moonphase (from not to liking it)?
When it first came out, I thought the Moonphase complication, which has always fascinated me (I bought a Seiko Moonphase in the late 80s. It set me back over $200, which was an absolute fortune to me at the time. I still have it) but I thought the Rolex iteration was odd and difficult to read.I searched for guides on how to read it (I had a mental block because it seems so simple now) and finally found what I was looking for...on Rolex �� the damned user guide they offer as a PDF download! I now absolutely love the watch. I've moved on to appreciating the ��luxe' design of the hands, for example (I have Rolex sports models, the BLNR and two YMs, one almost 20 years old, the other almost new).Was curious is anyone else had gained appreciation for this stunning watch. I now find the Moonphase complication to be inspired, and beautiful.Pictures are from RolexSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

These days its less in style for the younger guys (particularly in north america i would guess). that being said that TT bluesy sub is growing on me every month that goes by, am i alone? I think I need to get one, im 36...who cares right?
