Junghans Max Bill Watch Range Updated For 2015
The Max Bill by Junghans?range does something strange to my brain. When you encounter a Junghans Max Bill watch for the first time, you might not know what to say. But why? They are not bizarre like an MB&F, Panda-piloted twin-turbine; they don't perform?an optical illusion a la Ressence Type 3; they're not?even made of an unusual material like a Richard Mille or a Schofield Blacklamp. No, it's because it?feels like you've seen them?a hundred times before, only you're not quite sure. They are almost a blueprint - a model of restraint. It's so easy to "get it" immediately. This is because the Junghans Max Bill is, in my opinion, an example of excellent design.This year, Uhrenfabrik Junghans has released eight new configurations for the Junghans Max Bill range. There are two ladies watches in bright, bold colors (blue and red) as favored by the late Swiss Maestro after whom the range is named, and a third ladies watch with a black dial and leather-backed felt strap. There is a new ge

The Vacheron Constantin Harmony Tourbillon Chronograph, With "Dragging" 45-Minute Chronogr
Vacheron Constantin's Harmony line drew praise after revealing the thinnest self-winding split-seconds mono-pusher chronograph a month ago. Then it drew more praise with its mono-pusher doctor's chronograph, which employed similar technical innovation on a more reserved scale. All together, this collection of new calibers took seven years of research and development, and you can bet that a decent chunk of that went to coupling the improved chronograph with an improved tourbillon.Vacheron's new Tourbillon Chronograph utilizes the same 42 mm cushion-shaped case as the other pieces of the Harmony collection. From a design perspective, it is difficult to successfully evoke a 1920's motif in a 21st-century watch, but the manufacture has done a good job in this respect. 1 OF 3 On the dial, Vacheron has captured a particular old-school legibility in a contemporary way. The silvered-opaline dial with thickly-painted blue Arabic numerals and a red minute-track prod

Royal Oak 15400- Which color?
So I'm likely going to pull the trigger on a 15400 in the near future, probably from DavidSW when he has one that meets what I'm looking for. Question for you all - White or black? Blue is probably a little out of the price range. I think I'm leaning towards white but curious on opinions. Here are both on my wrist:

Flipping my BLNR
I know most of you guys will think I'm nuts. Many probably do already. But I just don't love my Rolex watches anymore. I've come back to the brand a few times. And I like a few of the new releases, but for now I'm cutting back to one. Nothing has ever really been safe in my collection, but the BLNR was supposed to be a keeper for a few reasons. Yet, I dont, and won't wear it. I've tried. I just always take it right off. The little lady agreed and flipping for a brandy new Omega that is on its way. The pics of the new 300 blew me away. I didn't love it in person. But each time I saw it in the steel, I liked it more and more. It grew on me quite a bit. And then the blue titanium was tried on. Love the comfort and styling. Pics to come when it arrives. Motto if this story, no watch is safe in my collection.

Brestro....
....or Bronze Destro. It's inevitable that such a model is coming, given the fact that Panerai as of lately resembles a cheap italian hooker in the way they go about their loyalty to collectors and their (tongue in cheek) 'exclusivity'. 'New' models are just old models with small tweaks, when something is 'rare and limited', rest assured that another model is already in production which is similar and also 'limited'. I miss the days of small production Panerai. Call me a hopeless nostalgic.
