Top 10 Watches At SIHH 2014
The watches-dealer team has just returned from the 2014 edition of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie watch trade show in Geneva - otherwise known as the SIHH. If you aren't already aware of what this show is about; it is one of a few major watch trade events each year where new products are debuted. SIHH is operated by the Richemont Group and a few other participating brands. There are about 16 brands that show there. The other major Swiss watch trade show is Baselworld that happens later in the year around March - and a lot more brands present there. SIHH is an important event and helps us understand what some of the major luxury brands are doing, and what their focus will be for this year and beyond.While we saw and photographed many new and amazing watches, there are a few that stood out as the top timepieces. These are watches that left the biggest impression on us, or that we feel are going to be successful sellers this year and beyond. A list of all the best watches

How scratch-resistant is AR coating on crystal?
According to the Breitling site, our crystals have anti-reflective coating on both sides. So how scratch-resistant is this coating? Will scratches in the coating show? Just want to know how much more careful I need to be with this watch.

DayDate at the Beach?
Yes, I know it's a Rolex and it can be worn anywhere and I typically keep it on no matter what I'm doing...Now that that's out of the way, I'll ask -Has anyone worn their gold DD or gold anything to the beach? Family vacation coming up and I've grown so used to this DD40 on my wrist I just don't feel like wearing my Sub or anything else.Anyone wear their DD to the beach? The older satin finished DD definitely held the scratches better than these polished cases. I'm obviously worried about scratching it up badly, but at the same time, a gold Sub or GMT would scratch just the same.Thoughts?Anyone have any pics of a DD40 with some war wounds?
