Piaget Altiplano Skeleton Ultra-Thin
Piaget is the undisputed master of ultra-thin. The brand holds several world records for thinnest movements, both simple and complicated. At SIHH, the list of records grew by two with the introduction of the Piaget Altiplano Skeleton Ultra-Thin. Learn more about the new records, and find wallpaper and pricing information inside.Designing and constructing ultra-thin movements is part art and part science. The science and engineering side requires deep understanding of materials and movement architecture. The movement designers and engineers must not sacrifice rigidity to achieve a thin profile.Yet even the best theories provide only a starting point.

Bianci Ladies Watches Make For Decent Gifts
We get a lot of requests to write about "more affordable" watches - which is tough as we are such high-brow snobs. Having said that, watches-dealer is produced by regular people whose budgets are probably closer to beer than champagne much of the time. So, here are a couple of watches from Bianci.You'll find these watches at various stores online often for discounts compared to the "retail prices." Each of these watches retails for somewhere in the $400 range, but are less when you look around for them online. These are decent timepieces and they are also fashionable.

Where next?
This is my collection so far:I want one more (I think I always say that!).I tried on a few patek models yesterday and I've ruled out the 5196g, just too slim and not versatile enough for me. I loved the 5396g but I would only get that if I traded in one of my current Pateks and I don't want to do that.I think I've got it down to the 5296g or 5711. As much as I used to like the sector dial 5296 I'm not as keen as I was so I think it will be the original dial. I had always ruled out the 5711 as I have the 5167 and I don't want something so similar however I do like the fact that it can be dressed up or down.Thoughts and opinions please.
