La Ligne Bleue by Jaquet Droz
Jaquet Droz announces a series of five timepieces, each produced in a limited edition of eight pieces. These unique watches share beautiful dials created using the Grand Feu enameling technique to obtain a color of unique depth and luminosity: Jaquet Droz blue. Whereas ivory or black enamel needs 10 to 15 firings, blue requires no fewer than 20. Before each one, the dial surface is dusted with a layer of powder no more than a millimeter thick. This superposition of layers give the blue its special radiance and distinctive hue. Though each dial requires significant time and skill to create, less than one dial in ten passes inspection and goes on to adorn one of the five models of La Ligne Bleue: the Grande Seconde, the Grande Seconde Medium, the Grande Date, the Quanti��me Perp��tuel and L'Origine Email.Suggested retail prices:Grande Seconde: $22,000.00Grande Seconde Medium: $22,000.00Grande Date: $25,00.00Quantieme Perpetuel: $53,000.00L'Oringine: $10,000.00

Panerai PAM 358 Chronopassion Limited Edition Watch Available On James List
In the world of limited edition Panerai watches there are cool ones and boring ones. This is one of the really cool ones. I also love that they all (limited to 100 pieces) sold out within one hour of being released. This is the Panerai Luminor Submersible PAM 358, and was specially made for the Parisian high-end watch store Chronopassion. The PAM 358 is a pretty crazy watch. Water resistant to 2500 meters (over 8,000 feet), the watch is shaped like a diving vessel with a large rounded bottom. It is known as a "destro" model, or lefty model, because the crown is on the left side of the watch. It is really thick as well - even by Panerai standard. The case is 47mm wide in titanium with a special rotating diver's bezel that is in steel. This is one of the most coveted, ultimate Panerai dive watches out there.For more pics, you can check out this post on WatchUSeek where a lucky member shows off his PAM 358.

A plethora of platinum and a rg and a steel interloper!

Leaning towards a planet ocean
I dig the contemporary look and reading about the 8500 movements seem to be pointing me towards the omega po 2011 when they come out. I cannot seem to find much info on the 8500 movement. But looking at both the rolex sub and the po, I like the way the po looks and feels. Funny since I was leaning towards a sub initially. Now it looks like the orange basel po caught my attention.
