Adriano Valente AV-L001 Watch To Go With Your Lamborghini
Finally, a watch with a design as ostentatious as a Lamborghini - designed to go with your Lamborghini. New Italian watch brand Adriano Valente (did the name give it away?) has released their first watch called the AVL001. With tons of customization options, it is designed to go with the look of newer Lamborghini cars such as the Murcielago and Gallardo. It has a unique case design and (reportedly) exclusive in-house made movement. Note that their website music might give you brain seizure. Plus, even if you turn the music off on the site, it will inexplicably turn itself back on at some point and make you wonder if the ghost of a failed Milan night club is lurking in your computer to haunt you.First of all, Adriano Valente has no relationship with Lamborghini - these are quite unofficial watches of the cars. Adriano started the brand because he simply didn't find any existing watches out there with what he wanted. So the entire point of the brand is about customization. The first mode

AP 15400 Date Change
HI I am considering a 15400. Love the watch. I have heard through these forums from owners that the date function does not turn over at/near midnight. I am wondering why this is the case? Many simple eta watches execute this flawlessly. Why on a watch of this level, with an in house movement not have this capability?

Opinions/advice needed on this watch
A big HI to all the AP experts here.Can anyone tell me more about this watch? What's good or bad about it? I Google'd and all the pictures for this reference shows a very different face with a red date hand pointing to dates around the dial. The model is 25920ST.O.0789ST.02 from the papers.There also doesn't appear to be any posts about this watch on TRF? Is it not a desirable piece?The seller has all the books and and the watch, which is an E series, was bought in 2004. He also appears to have had it serviced in Jan 2012. What is a reasonable price to offer for this watch?Many thanks to all.Regards,

Any Love? 2531.80s?
I own one and up until I purchased my Rolex it was my best watch. I love the feel, the lum, the ruggedness, and the accuracy of the watch. I've had it a couple of years and it just keeps on ticking at about -1 second a week. If it weren't for it having become the Bond watch due to it appearing in a couple of films it would be close to perfect watch. At any rate here are a few of photos of mine. Anyone else have one they like?
