The Wearables Arrive: The Scoop on All the New Smartwatches From Baselworld 2015
According to an old joke, Albert Einstein once said that he wanted to die in Switzerland, not elsewhere, because everything happens 20 years later there. This year, Baselworld proved Einstein wrong: the array of smartwatches on display proved the Swiss can be as up-to-date as anyone. Here's a rundown of some of the smartwatches that debuted, or whose upcoming debut was announced, at this year’s Baselworld watch fair (most, but not all, come from Swiss brands):? Sister brands Fr��d��rique Constant and Alpina both showed analog watches that connect with apps on an Apple or Android phone, enabling the wearer to track his or her physical activity and sleep. The wearer can see data for sleep and activity in a subdial at 6 o'clock, and in more detail, on the phone. The watch, called the Horological Smartwatch, also alerts the wearer when he or she has been sitting too long and needs to get some exercise (more info here). At a press conference at the show, Peter Stas, CEO of the brands'

Why so few 15300 for sale?
So I did a search in the for sale section and found that in 2012 (so far) only two 15300 have been offered for sale vs six in 2011.So what gives? Why are there so few 15300 being flipped?Are there not many of them out there? not popular or are they simply so popular that people make them a permanent part of their collection?

Potentially looking pick up my first Breitling
Hi all,I have recently been looking I to adding another watch to my collection.I current have a vintage Rolex Date and an Omega Constellation which I love but both are on metal straps. I have been looking for something with a hide or rubber strap to have something different.I had seen a Hublot MDM which I liked which I put up in another part of the forum but I have came across this Breitling Blackbird.I am well aware that it is late 90s - early 00s however Iwas looking to see if anyone either has this watch or could give me some feedback on it?Any comments either positive or negative would be welcome.

More or less?
I never thought a few years ago it would be like this but in fact I am 10 times happier with a small amount of watches than with a big one, it's very strange because at one moment I had; Rolexes: sub date, Batman, Daytona RG 116515, Pams: 233, 28, 82, Blancpain L-Evolution alarm GMT, Patek 5712, and in a way I was not happy, I was wearing my Patek 99% of the time and the others were in the safe.I am incapable of enjoying a big collection as I wear the 1-2 I prefer, I flipped all of them except the Patek and added a Hulk, which I never wore, so it got flipped too, at the moment I have the 5712 and 5726 on strap, and for me it's a great solution, I love both, have had the 5726 3 weeks, wore it 2, put it back in the safe and now am wearing the 5712, so basically it'll probably be 2 weeks one and 2 weeks the other, couldn't be happier, but when you think about it it's quite strange as I always thought that I would love to have a big collection, but having nice watches and not wearing them

Pam 384 anyone?
I've recently stumbled across the Pam 384, what a beautiful looking watch! I'm very intrigued! Does anyone have/had one that can tell me about it. The Good, the bad and the ugly...Thanks all!
