Blancpain CEO Marc Hayek Takes Podium at Silverstone
Blancpain CEO Marc Hayek and driving partner Peter Kox drove their Lamborghini Gallardo to another win in the Super Trofeo auto racing series at the historic Silverstone (UK) road course last weekend. The fourth event in the series took place within the context of the British F3/GT Championship. Renowned for its varied race course enabling top speeds of 190+ mph, Silverstone welcomes all kinds of competitions throughout the year including the MotoGP, Superbike and World Aerobatic championships. To celebrate the championship racing series, Blancpain introduced the 300 piece limited edition Super Trofeo flyback chronograph at Basel this year. The 43.5mm DLC case houses a NAC-treated Caliber F185 movement with black mainplate and bridges. The 308 part manual winding movement provides hour, minute, small seconds and date display at 6 o'clock, as well as chronograph indications with a central sweep seconds hand, 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock and 12-hour counter at 9 o'clock, and of course

Breitling meets Panerai
Messing around today looking for that perfect combo. It's a little to think for the case, rubs a bit, but other than that, I love the look. One of the reasons I bought this watch was because it has 24mm lugs, she just needs a little thinner strap.

Home refinishing project for Breitling
I frequently get bored and then who knows what can happen?!?! Any way, my Breilting Super Avenger was getting old and I thought it needed a change. As many of you know, the SA comes with a high-polish finish on the case and bracelet. I decided to change that. It's now a brushed/satin finish similiar to a Rolex. Let me know what you think! I intentionally left the centre links polished for a little pizazz... It's not perfect as this was my first attempt at refinishing...

Omega AT quartz - stopped working
Hi Gents, Need your advice. Bough an Aqua Terra Quartz about two month ago and all of a sudden its stopped ticking. I presume its probably the battery gone flat. Question - given that its only two month, should i ask for the battery to be replaced free of charge from an omega boutique OR iam expected to pay? Thank you.

My New Sub
As a working stiff, my Sub was a long time coming! Bought from a local jewelry store for $6800 OTD. Traded my 84 SS datejust for 2k, so final price was $4800. It is a 99 A serial & came with the box all the books and paperwork. It also had a nice bonus of the hang tags and anchor. Did I pay to much? And did I get enough for my DJ? Love my new watch Love my new watch!!!
