Franck Muller Conquistador Grand Prix Tourbillon Watch
It is pretty wild, and sort of ridiculous at the same time. Franck Muller pushes itself into the realm of luxury sport watch aesthetics. In a way, it feels like what Audemars Piguet did with the Royal Oak Offshore, only here with Franck Muller. This is the tourbillon version of the watch, but there is also a (much less expensive) chronograph version. It comes in titanium and Egral or rose gold. Over $100k, and massive in size.See my Franck Muller Conquistador Grand Prix Tourbillon watch article at Haute Living here.See Franck Muller watches on eBay here.See Franck Muller watches on Amazon here.

Introducing The Breitling Chronoliner, A Modern Aviator With Vintage Nuances
Breitling has?been rekindling vintage-inspired pieces for a while now. Last month, we showed you the in-house Transocean 1915 Mono-pusher Chrono, and before that a 38 mm Transocean Chrono. But, let's not forget that Breitling's legacy as a tool watch applies as much in the air as it does on the sea. Its latest release, the Breitling Chronoliner, is an aviation themed watch that evokes images of that?bygone era.When Breitling says that it drew inspiration from vintage pieces?in designing this aviator, it's only natural that we focus on our favorites. If we put on our?vintage?goggles, we don't have to look too hard to notice piston pushers and a?black bezel on a?panda dial �C and that means a Breitling Co-Pilot as far as vintage aviators are concerned. We covered one here?not too long ago. Granted, the registers are at 6, 9, and 12 instead of 3, 6, and 9 and the bezel is of the?24-hour variety?instead of 12, but maybe the Chronoliner's looks are inspired by a medley of older models.

Think of older Breitling
I'm thinking of buying an older Breitling chrono from the 1950's. No sure which model yet, my question is servicing these watches......any problem with getting them serviced or getting parts? Any thoughts pro or con would be appreciated.Lance
