New Logo Takes aBlogtoRead.com In The Right Direction
You have no doubt recognized the new aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer logo which is proudly displayed. The result of much effort and a joint collaboration with a professional designer; I am proud to have a great looking logo. Designing a logo is very tough work. There are endless directions to go in, and even the most skilled designer needs some input. Sometimes, it is the result of mere luck that a quality logo come about.The logo you see is a result of many things, mainly the idea to remain simple while emphasize the theme of the blog, which is watches. I particularly enjoy the way the "o" and "g" in "blog" are watch gears, and how watch hands comprise the connection between the "e" and "a" in "read." A lover of graphics and clever design, I am particularly happy the designer was able to work with me in visualizing this idea as nicely as you see.I hope that you each like the new logo. In the coming months, you will ideally see a completely new shape and form to aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer.

CORUM Heritage Artisans Coin Watch
The bald eagle became the national bird of the United States on June 20th 1782. It is a symbol of beauty, strength and prestige which appears grasping arrows and an olive branch in its talons on most official American seals, including the President's. It also appears on several coins such as the US dollar and inspired Corum to design the first Coin Watch with a coin as a dial in 1964. Half a century later, the?La Chaux-de-Fonds brand has unveiled a limited edition of 100 pieces whose dial is a real dollar in 925 silver protected by sapphire crystal. Two black baton-shape hour and minute hands burst from beneath the eagle's head powered by the self-winding CO 082 calibre which provides a 42-hour power reserve. The movement is nestled in the 43mm silver case whose crown gleams with a diamond.?Price: 12,400 CHF.?Sharmila Bertincorum.ch

Still in love
I've had my 15202 a couple of months now... And I'm still as happy as I was day oneI really hope this continues to be the case, because I have flipped thru a lot of watches. But the feel I get from putting it on, staring at, and just owning it is unlike any otherThe closest I've got to this level of satisfaction was probably from my first rolex. It was a monumental experience and owning one after coveting for so long, was amazing. Somehow after perhaps working through a dozen or more watches, including some fairly elusive pieces, this one - hits the sweet spot, again...

Patek increase to be 14% ...
A little birdy told me today that the Patek increase is looking to be 14% (at least in Canada)... Anyone have any confirmation of this? Looks like at least the Aquanaut/Naut etc will be affected...If this is the case, I'm happy that I bought mine when I did!
