Looking Time in the Eye: Two New HYT Skull Watches
Skulls are a popular motif in luxury watches lately �� check out our list of some of the most notable ones �� and now HYT, one of the most unconventional watchmakers out there, gets in on the act in its own unique “hydromechanical horology” style with the release of the HYT Skull, available in two colorful versions.To create the new HYT Skull Green Eye and Red Eye models, HYT CEO Vincent Perriard gave his watchmakers a simple but challenging goal: make a timepiece that has a totally original look but still maintains the HYT watch brand’s signature style. “Simply taking an existing movement, giving it a vague skull shape and presenting it as an entirely new piece is not really our style,” Perriard says.?The watches, like previous HYT models, use a colored fluid �� flowing through a thin capillary and controlled by the expansion and contraction of two vertical bellows in the movement �� to keep track of the hours with the aid of a numbered scale around the dial.

Van Cleef & Arpels Pont des Amoureux Watch
This is a very interesting and nice to look at women's watch from Van Cleef & Arpels. If I was a woman, then I would likely start saving up for one. Pennies, nickles, and dimes until I reached $116,000. The watch is the Pont des Amoureux, which means lover's bridge. The complication makes it such that the two figurines? connect at midnight for a "kiss." This was no easy task actually. Check out this image of the watch internals. Just a small part of this area is dedicated to the manually wound mechanical movement. The rest is for the complex retrograde minute and hour hands.? The watch is also in 18k white gold, with lots of diamonds, and the dial is totally hand painted. A real piece of art work with what Van Cleef & Aprels calls a "poetic complication" - how sweet.Read more about the Van Cleef & Arpels Pont des Amoureux watch on my article at Haute Living here.

Omega Speedmaster Date NATO
Just purchased a nato for my 3511.50. I live the detailed omega bracelet but I thought this would look kinda neat for a change. Took the pic in the PM so the date is in the process of changing.

This is my first post although . . .
those of you who venture over into Omegaland probably already know me.A couple of months ago I found my way over to the Rolex Discussion forum looking for advice on the Explorer II as a replacement for my white dialed Seamaster GMT. This was the fourth Great White I had owned but none ever felt right on my wrist. I finally figured out that the case was just too thick.After doing some research, I decided the EXPII was the way to go and about five weeks ago a new M/3186 joined my 105.012 Speedy Pro and 2254.50 SMP:
