Christophe Claret Poker Watch Preview: Real Texas Hold 'Em On Your Wrist
The Poker watch by Christophe Claret is a mechanical timepiece that you can play actual poker with. This follows the innovative brand's Blackjack 21 and later Baccarat gaming watches for the ultimate horological and casino aficionado. It is hard to believe that it has already been two years since Christophe Claret debuted his Blackjack 21 watch (hands-on here) in 2011. The watch used a complex system of discs and patterns to allow you to play blackjack with the watch - with the watch being the dealer. Christophe always intended to follow-up with a watch that you could play poker with and for 2014, it is here.The Poker watch will take everything a step further and allow the user to play a full game of poker with the watch. We don't have all the details now as the watch will be fully debuted shortly, but the Poker should live up to Christophe Claret's original promise of producing a complete set of mechanical gaming watches starting with the Blackjack 21 and perhaps ending with the Poker

So, just like Breguet did when rebuilding his own manufacture after the French revolution, Journe reached out to 20 existing clients and friends to ask for a down payment on a watch that would come later. It was the funds raised here that he would use to build 20 tourbillons in a 38 mm platinum case with rhodium-plated, brass movement. The dial is the now legendary sparkl

Need help choosing a ROO...
Hello Everyone, Im looking to purchase my first AP watch and I was wondering what the cheapest 42mm-44mm ROO would be.

Can someone help?

Advise please ...Many thanks in advance and happy holidays
