Vacheron Constantin Historiques 1921 Wins Montres Passion Watch of the Year
The Swiss watch magazine Montres Passion selected the Vacheron Constantin Historiques American 1921 as Watch of the Year for 2009. Vacheron also won the award in 2007 for its Patrimony Contemporary Retrograde Date and Day. Vacheron Constantin CEO Juan-Carlos Torres accepted the prize on October 28 at the Geneva Intercontinental Hotel before an audience of more than 500 people.

The modern version is 18k pink gold and measures 40mm in diameter. It is powered by Vacheron’s recently-developed manual-winding manufacture 4400 movement bearing the Hallmark of Geneva.

Hublot Big Bang Aero Johnnie Walker Whisky Limited Edition Watch
Whisky is a big deal in China these days, and apparently the most popular spirit brand in the world is Johnnie Walker. So, with that said, it should come as little surprise that Hublot has created a limited edition set of Big Bang Aero watches in partnership with Johnnie Walker brand whiskies.

Before I sell - need newbie advice
Hi all,Need advice - I've decided to sell my hardly worn G series PAM 88 - great watch, I just don't wear it. I bought it new while on travel and as I just don't keep stuff like boxes/receipts (had no way to carry it anyway) it is only the watch and three straps (and the Panerai pouch in which serviced watches are returned).As there are a multitude of un reputable folks out there, and I wanted to offer an unquestionably genuine and like new PAM, I sent it in to have it serviced and polished (Trinity Blvd Ft Worth) - I do have all that paperwork so as to verify authenticity and, not sure if transferable, a 1 year warrantee.So, knowing all that stuff, what is a fair price to offer the watch for?Thanks so much, appreciate the guidance!
