The Sotirio Bvlgari Annual Calendar
To celebrate the 125th anniversary of the opening of their first store in Rome, Bvlgari is launching a line of watches bearing the founder's name, Sotirio Bvlgari. Each watch in the line shares distinctive design elements. The cases are produced by Bvlgari Group member Finger, which has been making watch cases since 1898. The case lugs are the signature feature, integrated into the caseback at converging angles that provide high tensile strength despite a small contact area with the case. The 42mm case includes a display back. Crowns contain the SB monogram. The high-quality hand-worked dials are produced by Cadrans Design, another Bvlgari Group subsidiary. Buckles are also produced by a group member, Prestige d'Or.Beneath the dial on this model is a BVL 360 Caliber automatic winding annual calendar with a 225�� retrograde date hand. The movement, produced by Vaucher for Bvlgari, has a hand-decorated plate and bridges with an original biaxial c?tes de Gen��ve and a traits tires treatme

HI, i just pickup my first patek Nautilus 5980/1A-014 (Stainless steel black dial) - this is brand new from Patek authorized dealer.then i found out that this watch is discontinue but i been told this is nautilus watch and this watch will soon become very collectible and you can't go go wrong with any nautilus. I just want to be sure that im not buying the wrong nautilus here. I like 5726-1 and 5990 (but i like this 5980 because is not to crowded unlike 5990) and both are CHRONO and 5726 is not.Please give me an advice. Should i keep it or try to return it. I called 2 store they said this is becoming RARE nautilus (is it true?)Thanks in advance

Winding & Scratching
I have the below PAM 111. I find that when I wind the watch up, my thumb is continually scratching the polished part of the case. It's not like I have fingers made of sandpaper. Never have this problem with any of my other watches, as the crown will come out one position prior to being wound, where the PAM stays flush against the case. Suggestions other than moisturizing my hands. Haha.
