Breitling B01 Calibre
Breitling has just introduced it's first totally inhouse chronograph movement, the B01. Here's a link to their press release. .breitling/calibreB01/..._Moleskine.pdf I'm not certain as to which series will receive the movement first but it is a huge step for Breitling to wean themselves from ETA with the upcoming changes in ETA distribution.

just arrived! PAM0024
I'd been hunting for a new watch for a few months now and it was starting to get more and more complicated, I had my mind set, then I saw something else that appealed, and on it went! I walked up and down Collins St seeking out the right watch, at the right price.Rolex, no budge on price and wait for stock to arrive! I decided that was not good enough so I moved on, Omega, pretty much the same with the excuse that it lessens the name, well, it pays your wages too if I buy one...but the Seamaster GMT felt cheap and certainly not worthy of the $9400 price tag.Today, I thought bugger this, I need to get the watch and be done with it..I waltzed in to The Hour Glass and the lovely young NZ girl served me straight away.She asked what I was looking for and I told her straight out...she asked which model I was interested in and I told her this is the one! PAM0024, and she pulled it out and let me play around with it.I played, she watched, I talked to her about watches and asked her why she doe

Order Rolex at AD - Gift Certificate Question
Hi all I am new to this Forum. I work in Manhattan and I just ordered a GMT2 Master batman at one AD: Tourneau Bryant Park. They don't have the watch in stock, so they asked me to buy a gift certificate by swiping my credit card and they told me I will get my watch as soon as they get one. They guaranteed that I can get my money back if I am not satisfied with the purchase. Now I got a receipt from them and I have a few questions.1. I already paid a lot of money by credit card with only a receipt stating gift certificate, so is it possible that they can take my money without giving me watch? 2. I paid MSRP for that watch and forgot to negotiate the price, is it possible to negotiate the price for the batman? Do you guys think if I should ask other ADs?3. My credit card has some benefits like lost protection and extended warranty. Do I need to ask them to cancel the previous charge and swipe for the actual watch to get these benefits?Thank you very much for the help! This will be my fir

Cheapest in the world!!!
New member, first post!! Thought i would start by doing something good and something most rather everyone in the forum would find hard to believe.. although i cant be 100% sure, i am more than confident that the prices of new Rolex watches in India are right now the CHEAPEST IN THE WORLD!!! The initial lower prices overall, poor currency exchange rates, good discounts to be had from ADs were always there.. This deal has just been made sweeter by government reducing the taxes to 18% from 28%, bringing the prices down a further 8%..If anyone has plans to visit India sometime sooner or would like to know at what prices they can get the watches here, I shall be more than happy to assist..Hope my first post becomes of use to fellow TRF members.. cheers..
