Tournaire Expression Paris Watch
Jewelry and watch designer Philippe Tournaire has created some really interesting things. For me, he will be most famous for being the guy who turns architecture into rings. Really. Image a ring with a gold building on it - yup. Tournaire's newest creation combines this concept with a watch, but in a way that is just sort of weird. In fact, as hard as it may have been someone finally make the beautiful city of Paris kinda unattractive.To be fair I do like his basic watch designs. Even they have optional "architecture" around the side of the case. This one however has a thick frame of little carved buildings around the edge. A "revolution" around Paris you might say. Landmark buildings abound, as well as the Eiffel Tower of course. According to BusinessMontres, Tournaire is considering making timepieces like this for other cities. This is starting to remind me of the movie Inception - which I still don't quite understand. That is the other place I recall being able to turn a city around

VULCAIN 50s Presidents Watch
Vulcain �C 50s Presidents’ WatchTimes change, move on, transform, but time is always the same. One hour is always equal to 60 minutes and a minute always lasts 60 seconds. However, how time is "presented" is��of its times! Just look at how the famous Cricket calibre by Vulcain, with a mechanical alarm that launched in 1947, has been updated in 2016: its power reserve has increased from 40 to 52 hours, its central seconds stand at 8 and the alarm display is at 4.The iconic 50s Presidents’ Watch has had a makeover this year with a different layout. The dial comes in matt black with a blue counter, silver or taupe grey and a Clous de Paris centre. Two luminescent dauphine-shape hands glide over the metallic time markers and Arabic numerals.The functions are fuelled by the signature manual wind V-40 movement in the 42mm steel case.Price: 6,150 CHFBy Sharmila Bertinvulcain.ch
