Introducing: The Montblanc Collection Villeret Tourbillon Cylindrique Pocket Watch 110 Years Edition, And Navigator Unique Piece Nautical Clock
The navigation theme has been a pretty prominent one in Montblanc’s recent production – probably most visibly, in the watches named for the famous Portuguese explorer, Vasco da Gama – but this year Montblanc’s pretty much pulled out all the stops in making something that speaks both to the history of marine chronometers, as well as showcasing the artisanal side of watchmaking in the Montblanc portfolio as it exists at the Minerva movement manufacture (the counterpart to the somewhat larger scale production facility that Montblanc maintains in Le Locle).  The Montblanc Collection Tourbillon Cylindrique Pocket Watch 110 Years Edition (with which Montblanc challenges Audemars Piguet for Brand That Gives The Longest Names To Its Watches) and the Montblanc Collection Tourbillon Cylindrique Pocket Watch 110 Years Edition Unique Piece (ditto) are triple time zone, world-time tourbillon pocket watches of really incredible beauty; the latter is paired with a pretty

Thinking about selling.
I always thinking to sell my 5980/1A because its always stay in the safe. But today I change my mind after I'm wearing it again. My watch is so cool :))ImageUploadedByTapatalk1360898171.231432.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1360898201.347405.jpg

My first Panerai! Pam312
I was a little puzzled between picking up a 312 vs 372. This being my every day watch, I decided to go with the 312. I prefer the rubber strap on the 312 and the date. It's a nice wear, just find it to be a little top heavy at times... Slowly but surely i'm starting to fall in love with the Panerai SubmersiblesAny recommendations where I can get it cleaned? I'm located in NYC

Datejust II Thoughts Bought from an AD
First time Rolex buyer here. I recently visited a local AD. I tried on a ton of Rolex watches (Explorer, Explorer II, Milgauss, Datejust 36, Sub, GMT) from 36mm up through my current one I decided on. The salesperson was extremely helpful, and I had additional salespeople give their thoughts on what really looked the best on my arm. I asked if they could come off the $9,100 price, and they would not budge. Is this normal for a now discontinued watch? I'll admit, I love the watch and this one really sang to me when I put it on. As a first time buyer, I wanted to go through an AD. It's mine now, and I love it. Thoughts?
