Girard-Perregaux ww.tc Cabinet de Curiosit��s Limited Edition Watch
Did you really like (and want) the special piece unique watch that Girard-Perregaux had auctioned at the 2011 Only Watch Auction? If so (and you weren't that one person to get it), then you sort of have another chance. Aside from the smoked sapphire crystal dial, this limited edition of just five pieces Girard-Perregaux ww.tc Cabinet de Curiosit��s watch has the same cool style with the white ceramic and titanium case. This is essentially the white version of the ww.tc Shadow watch that is part of their regular production right now. They do ceramic cases very well.I wonder what this would look like on a while strap? How about a black and white striped NATO strap.interesting thoughts. Limited to just five pieces, this watch is part of a unique series of relationships. The ww.tc Cabinet de Curiosities will be available exclusively at a concept store called Browns in London. I am not familiar with it, but it is said to be a lot like Colette in Paris.Girard-Perregaux is actually working wit

My new Seamaster Professional 300M Ceramic (Black)
Hi Folks!It's been a long while since I've logged in here (probably since the passing of JJ, may he R.I.P.), so I thought I'd share my latest acquisition with you all today! :)If any of you Omega fans are on the fence with this beauty, I highly recommend you get one! Best Regards!Steve

Just Returned From Omega Boutique Beverly Center
Unfortunately, did not have my phone with me but just spent some time at the Omega Boutique in Beverly Center (Los Angeles). Had a chance to view and wear the new POs...........here's some impressions.The new ceramic bezel is a washed out gray tone...........this will be strictly a matter of personal taste whether one likes it more or less than the steel bezel. New Chrono PO has an absolutely amazing dial but is very thick.........quite a difference between the new one and the current one. Again, the bezel for me is the issue.Huge price increase. The new PO Chrono is $7,900..........the regular PO is about $6,000........Omega is flirting in big boy territory and I'm not sure how that'll sit with buyers.Anyway, next time I'll take my phone with me to take some pics

Patek new references for 5170
Can someone explain why when you download owners manual on Patek updated website for 5170, you get the following reference options:5170J-0015170J-0105170J-011The same applies to 5127R or other watches. What are the last 3 digits standing for (001, 010, 011)? Is it definitely not the metal since it is all J.Thanks!

4-digit vs. 5-digit vs. 6-digit Sub
Hi. Another thread inspired me to come up with a ridiculous hypothetical. I know that many in these forums like older Submariner designs, but still prefer reliable new/like new condition and don't want to spend vintage collector money on the old stuff. If you want to buy a new Rolex in a store, the only option is obviously the current SubC (assuming it was actually in stock. ) So, if Rolex announced today that they'd be willing to retool and make only one version of today's Sub/SubDate brand new at today's retail price, would you vote for them to simply keep making the 114060/116610, or would you ask them to switch and go back to making either the 5512/1680 or 14060/16610 versions of those watches?
