Seiko Ananta Automatic Chronograph Titanium Watch
This is the mechanical Seiko sport watch to own in 2010. Representing the purely mechanical - versus Spring Drive - movement based Ananta watches in the US, this new for 2010 Automatic Chronograph ref. SRQ009 in titanium. When I first saw this watch I was pretty sure that it was going to be a limited edition, but it isn't. The titanium Ananta automatic will be part of the regular collection - offering a super sporty version of Seiko's high-end world market automatic. I was able to get my hands on it and check it out, you can see an image of it here where it is looking pretty sexy. I can say that it is pretty nice - and a carbon fiber dial watch that I like!Speaking of carbon fiber, many of you know that I am not so fond of the material for dials a lot of the time. Often because the look of carbon fiber can make a dial hard to read. Here however, the tighter woven look of it is topped with proper dials, and those famous Ananta diamond polished hands. Lume is placed on the hands and hour

Roger Dubuis Introduces La Monegasque Collection, We Go Hands-On
Earlier this month, Swiss manufacturer Roger Dubuis introduced their entirely new La Mon��gasque line of watches within the historic Monte Carlo district of Monaco. The venue served as the inspiration for the young brand, who refers to their newest creations as "an ode to gaming, glamour and the Riviera." In their attempt to capture this spirit, they've built no less than eight models to comprise the La Mon��gasque collection. We were there, and we've got the skinny on the best of the new releases.?Roger Dubuis (first seen here) has managed to scale their manufacturing capabilities to near 100% since their inception in 1995. Production is handled entirely within the walls of their Geneva facilities, where every watch that comes out the door carries the coveted Geneva Seal. For the La Mon��gasque collection, new calibers were designed and built, meant to embody the next generation of manufacturing abilities for the marque. One in particular caught my eye during the release event, the RD540

New Omega Botique coming to Somerset Collection in Michigan
This may have already been posted, I dont spend much time on the Omega forum. But I just was at the very upscale Somerset Collection in Troy, MI and sall this storefront right across from the existing Tourneau. Interesting that Tourneau will lost the Omega line, as well as losing the Rolex line a few months ago. Ouch. Always have terrible experiences at this Tourneau. Looking forward to the new Omega Botique.

What ifs
The green subs (sorry I cant bring myself to use cartoon names) seem to be crazy popular. What if Rolex brought out some other colors for the SS Subs...Blue (sunburst), red, yellow.... Do you think these would take off? I understand Green is Roles's color if you will, but just thinking if I was a big shot at Rolex, I would be thinking maybe a blue next year and them maybe the yellow 2 or 3 years later... Any thoughts?
