Top 10 Watches Of Baselworld 2014
Baselworld 2014 marks the fifth anniversary of watches-dealer visiting the massive watch trade show event and at this point, our March/April pilgrimage to the third most populated city in Switzerland (not actually saying much) is met with gracious welcome by many of the brands who produce the best watches in the world. Baselworld is the larger of the annual watch trade shows around the world. While SIHH in January (in Geneva) is smaller, it is also an important event where a different list of important brands display their newest watch and jewelry creations.For your reference you can check out our list of the top 10 watches of SIHH 2014 to recall the timepieces we felt were the most worth knowing about. We make it part of our coverage to provide watches-dealer audience members with a list of what we feel is going to be of importance or worth your hard-earned income over the next few years.

Audemars interested
Over the past year or so, I've became more and more interested in owning an AP. For my first AP, would model would you recommend? (please attach pictures as well if possible) How durable are AP's? (I have put my other watches through hell-- Sky diving, Saunas, Diving, Skiing, Mountain climbing, Hot tubs, being bumped and abused). I need a watch that can keep up with my active life style, yet still be classy/dressy. Where do you suggest purchasing AP's from? (I haven't seen any in my area). As you can see, I demand a lot out of a watch, but I think AP can deliver. Thanks in advance. -C.

Very Limited Edition
Hello Breitling fans - first time posting on this section and first post for some time.OK here we go, I was just presented with this watch by a friend of a friend who knows I am a watch nut - I don't know an awful lot about the brand full stop but could not resist seeing something quite so rare, apparently number 4 of only 5 watches in existance. According to its' owner he has contacted Brietling and had the watch authenticated, he does know who owned the watch before him but I will keep that to myself.......so, what do you think?.....any comments welcome.......it's not my thing but it's certainly very impressive...

Need some help.
A friend of min asked her to help her put a value on these two watches so that she can sell them. She's told me that she has the box and paperwork for both but I have yet to see anything in person. I would appreciate if anyone can help me identify and give me an idea on value. Thanks guys!

Well, Merry Christmas to me! (pictures)
Here's the story: I have had my eye on Panerai for awhile now, but hadn't really been able to pinpoint something I really had to have. I was thinking about the 676 for awhile, as I liked several aspects of it.I liked the sandwich dial, the sunburst dial, the exhibition caseback, the small seconds dial, the crown guard and the size.Let me be more specific on size: Whenever I tried on a more traditionally sized Panerai, it always felt too large and clunky for me. I don't have large wrists. I liked the look of the large Panerai, but it always felt like it was too much. So, I thought the 676 was a fair compromise.Fast forward to Saturday, December 15th. I went to my local jeweler to take another look at the 676. The employee I work with (who is AWESOME) said to me, You know, I think I know your tastes, and I want you to look at something else while you're here.Then, she pulled it out: A PAM729. I immediately fell in love with it. I couldn't believe it. I had seen it in pictures online but
