SIHH: Lange��s New Saxonia Thin
For 2011 Lange is redsigning the Saxonia family, and the new Saxonia Thin offers discrete luxury and classic elegance in a case that measures only 5.9mm thick. And at 40mm in diameter, the Saxonia Thin makes a stylish statement on the wrist.This is the thinnest timepiece crafted to date by the venerable Saxon manufactory. The strength of this piece is its focus on the essence of a watch: the time in hours and minutes, and nothing more. Yet despite this focus, the Saxonia Thin remains unmistakably A. Lange & S?hne. A few key details embody hallmarks of the brand: a well-balanced presentation, a succinct minute scale, svelte baton hour markers, and lancet hands blend harmoniously to inform all who see it of the deep roots behind this piece.To fit the thin case, A. Lange & S?hne developed an equally slim manually wound movement that can be admired through the sapphire-crystal caseback. The new caliber L093.1 has a diameter of 28 millimeters and is a mere 2.9 millimeters thick. The

Edward Norton Is New Male Face Of Breil Watch Ads: High Price For The Actor?
We can be safe in assuming that Edward Norton was richly compensated for being Italian watch designer "Breil's" newest brand ambassador. The contract stipulates that for the next two years, Norton will be the primary face for all of Breil's print advertising. He gets to wear the watch for hours while photographers attempt to capture his "essence" and transfer than to the watch. Norton is actually an interesting choice for Breil, and probably not the first person you'd think that a watch company would choose. Virtually everyone in the watch industry is extremely conservative and highly conscious of image. Personally, I am a huge fan of Ed Norton (and I'll watch basically anything he is in), but you have to consider his image based on the most popular movies he has been in.So when I hear of Ed Norton, I think of some specific movies he has been in. Recently, he was in another new "The Hulk" movie. Mostly he wore a Polar heart-rate watch to make sure he didn't turn into the Hulk. He destr

Patek Philippe 5726 Nautilus on new shoes
It's going to be controversial. But I like it and it's super comfortable. Introducing the 5726 on the RubberB strap. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1453550536.345457.jpgI find its more comfortable than the OEM rubber strap. And the grey rubber matches the dial so nicely. Still formal but now with a hint of sportiness. What do you guys think?

5130 Service Advice needed
OK guys, I'm totally depressed with the issue my 5130 world time is having.First, I only wear this piece about 3-4weeks total out of the year and I have had it for about 4 years now.When I first got the piece I had an issue right away where the push button for rotating the timezones on the dial got stuck where the dial and hour hands would not rotate with zero resistance when pushing the button on the case. The piece had to be sent back to Geneva for servicing, and I got it back 8 weeks later with no direct explanation to me since it was sent through the AD.Fast forward 4 years, I was wearing the piece over the weekend, and decided to shift the dial to different timezones. I got through about 5-6 cities, and then all of a sudden I lost some resistance in the pushbutton. The outer dials with the city prints stopped shifting, but the hour hand would still shift by 1 hour with each push. Whne I push the button now there is much less resistance with the hour hands still shifting, but t
