Introducing The Rotonde de Cartier Earth And Moon, A Tourbillon With On-Demand Moonphase Display (Live Pics, Details, & Pricing)
Over the last few years, Cartier's Fine Watchmaking department has been consistently pushing out some of the most creative and technically impressive haute horology around. Just a few weeks ago we showed you the new Astrocalendaire and today we've got another stunner for you. The Rotonde de Cartier Earth and Moon uses its tourbillon and a moving Lapis Lazuli disc to display the phase of the moon on demand and there is a second timezone display as well. The Earth and Moon is as much a mechanical sculpture as it is a timekeeper and here we've got all the details.The Earth and Moon is not a subtle watch – far from it. The platinum case comes in at 47mm across and 16.65mm thick, with robust arching lugs. The dial is bright blue lapis lazuli with a white gold Roman numeral grid over the top that also features a map of the earth at the center.

Quartz Royal Oak Battery Change
My wife has a 33mm RO Quartz and the battery is now dead. I need some advice on how to go about getting a new battery. The forum here says:10. Stay away from a RO Quartz as changing the battery is something that needs to be done every 2-3 years. To change the battery you need to disassemble the whole watch. Remove the bezel, dial, hands, crown, etc. to access the movement and then replace the battery. If done by an independent there are a ton of things that can go wrong. Then again you will need to have AP do it and it gets really pricey even when it's just a battery change as they will still force you to do a periodic service.I would prefer not to send it in to Clearwater and skip the periodic service, is this something that my AP AD can do?thanks

Panerai 392 - What's your opinion?
Anyone here have a PAM 392? Looking for a 42mm/44mm, brushed case, sandwich dial, automatic, with date and think this will fit the bill. I have a small 6.25 wrist (flat however), and my current daily is a Rolex 116710 (fits perfectly). I don't like huge watches and think this might be a good compromise since I've been looking at a Panerai for some time. Anyone have one? If so, any regrets? Would you buy again? Attached a pic for reference!
