IWC Da Vinci Chronograph Ceramic
The first ceramic watch case debuted in an IWC Da Vinci in 1986. In 2007, IWC presented its newly developed manufacture flyback chronograph movement in the redesigned Da Vinci family. For 2010, the circle is complete as the movement gets a new, elegant, high-tech home in the form of a ceramic and titanium case in – you guessed it – the Da Vinci Chronograph Ceramic. This IWC-manufactured chronograph movement incorporates several unique design features. Particularly noteworthy is the display of the recorded time, which leaves the traditional display in the past and adopts a user-friendly integrated display that shows the hours and minutes on a single counter in the 12 o'clock position via a shorter hour hand and a longer minute hand, like a second time display. The 89360 calibre also offers a new double-pawl winding system and a flyback function: actuating the lower button during a timing function causes the recorded time to return to zero and restart immediately, without sto

Perrelet Turbine Skeleton Watch
For 2015, the Perrelet Turbine Skeleton marks a return to some of the original reasons why the Turbine collection was so cool for a while. What you essentially have is a smaller version of the Turbine XL case (more on that below) with the entire rear part of the watch face missing. That means the dial "turbine" rotor spins around with a view of the naked mechanical movement inside of the watch behind it. The Perrelet Turbine Skeleton watch is like a peep show for movement lovers.It was back in around 2009 that Perrelet first introduced the Turbine watch collection. The concept was dead simple, but also fun. The Perrelet Turbine watch dial was inspired by jet engines, and the turbine actually spins around as it is basically a second rotor on the dial - mechanically similar to the rotor in the automatic movement. The notion for this concept actually came from the fact the for a while, Perrelet's trademark design was to have a rotor on both the rear of the movement and the dial. The origi

Poll: so how does the 5650 compare
At long last a blue dial. As for the GMT's the 5650 is going to be hugely divisive. So what do we think of Jaws?

Negative or disappointing PP experience?
I was indirectly involved with the return of a PP 5170 to PP for a complete repair/service. It was in an optically bad shape with broken smashed glass as the owner had been involved in a severe accident. The case was neither badly scratched nor dented, but appeared to have some dinks here and there from daily use. The breaking of the glass caused it to get in contact with the hour and minute pointers which got bent out of shape from the top toward the dial (from outside to inside along their length). The dial got scratched due to the broken glass.The watch was brought to the main AD of PP in Switzerland at the Bahnhofstrasse in Zurich who could not perform the repairs in their own little atelier. They sent it to PP in Geneva for repair. After two months the first call was made to the AD to enquire about the state of repairs. The status was unknown and we were told to call in a week. One week later the answer was that the watch was still being repaired, with no further details. About tw

Paranoia
Hello! Long time lurker here. First off a quick thank you to all you wonderful people for enabling this toxic hobby ! What with all those beautiful wrist shots . Anyways I acquired a Submariner this June, and I'm still deeply in love with it . Yesterday however I took a fall right outside my house . Had an exam the next day and didn't really pay attention to the weather warnings for frost. While my butt took most of the force of the fall ( I know because it is still sore 24 hours later ), I think I might have broken the fall abit with my wrist, which of course, had my beloved 114060 strapped to it . While there seems to be nothing wrong with time keeping( fingers crosse), I fear I might have dislodged/loosened something? Every time I shake the watch I can hear a very very low pitched whirl of the rotor . Compared to my seamaster, everyone would've called this whirl inaudible. But I'm just paranoid ! I can't remember if this whirl was there before the fall ! Granted I have pretty excell
