Get Political With A Breguet Ref. 3137 Watch Available On James List
I have been fascinated with this Breguet watch model since I wrote an article on Luxist a while ago about how it was seen on the wrist of Russian president Dmitri Medvedev. By the way, the above image is from Antiquroum via this webpage here. You can blame Breuget for not having enough images of their watches floating around the internet. So you probably know that Breuget is the king of "old school" watch brands. The love of Swatch Group kingpin (Chairman) Nicolas Hayek, and founder way back when by the father of modern watch making. Abraham Louis Breguet himself. The brand keeps mulling forth with classic watch creations that refuse to modernize - and that is a good thing.What is good is that Breuget watch prices aren't nuts. Sure you can get a $200,000 Breguet, but you can also get one for under $10,000. Clearly not cheap, but with enough savings many people can get one. This Ref. 3137 watch for example retailed for about $30,000 I believe, but is available for closer to $15,000 thes

Now, IWC introduces the Pilot's Watch Automatic 36 – a first look at the changes in the pipeline overall for the iconic and beloved Mark series.

V. H. Weems in 1927

Through the Native American canyons
Took a little pre NYE trip today and brought the RG44 along with me. These pictures were taken on Native American soil. Shaped by erosion, rainwater, and wind, these canyons have produced incredible spiral rock arches. The ANTELOPE:The Girl in the WindThe SHARKAdditional photos:
