Cartier Calibre Chronograph Watch
In 2010 Cartier released a brand new collection of men's watches called the Calibre. It was rather revolutionary for the brand for a couple of reasons, bringing Cartier's men's collection into the 21st Century. It was also a mass produced watch that contained an in-house made Cartier movement - something that previously only existed in their most high-end pieces.I knew the Calibre would be a hit from the start when I first discussed it here. It was handsome, the right size, and very much what a modern guy wanted in a Cartier. Sure models like the Santos and Roadster would always be popular, but I think Cartier needed something with a little sport in it as well as?pizzazz. Since 2010 Cartier has trickled out variations on the original design by adding a bracelet option in 2011, and for 2012 there is a chronograph.

my first - calatrava vs AC?
my first foray into a PP dress watch. for those who had done the same, did u contemplate between a calatrava vs an annual calendar?the models I've been eyeing are very different from each other:5107/27Rvs5056P/5146Gthe case/dial variant of the 5107/27 is minimal, and don't mind having the c315 over the more current c324.the case/dial variant of 5056P/5146G are significant... again, don't mind c315.in the perfect world, I'd have both. but what considerations did others go thru if/when they had to decide between the two complications?

Good Experience at HSWA New York
Not belittling anyone's negative experiences, it just seems that people only post when they have negative experiences, and not positive ones, myself I have had good experiences with the Patek service center in NYC. Went there today with my Annual calendar, it's an older model and the clasp was a bit loose, very courteous and friendly staff, they sat me down in a private waiting room with some nice magazines and Swiss chocolate. They said they would have the repaired while I wait, and that they would pressure test the watch and make sure the oils and seals were good and that it's keeping proper time, I was in and out in about 15 minutes total. Could not have asked for better service.Fortunately my watch is running well, no need for service, as the woman helping me mentioned that since the service times are currently about 8 months, she would recommend waiting until I have any issues before servicing, and that hopefully by the time I need service, the wait times will be shorter.
