Frederique Constant Maxime Manufacture Watch Collection At Basel + Video
Frederique Constant has something to be proud about. At the very least it should be something?that is exiting to fine watch consumers. While not the only company to offer relatively low cost in-house made movements, their new Maxine Manufacture Collection watches are beautifully made and feature a totally in-house made Swiss movement for under 2000 Euros. Typically the cost for in-house made manufacture movements is much higher.The new movement is the FC-700 automatic, and is the accumulation of over three years of development. What surprises me is the look and feel of the movement. The focus on aesthetics in the layout of the elements (such as the placement of the balance wheel) is complimented by a level of decoration not expected at these modest price points. The gold rotor, perlage and other polishing, and use of blue screws makes viewing the movement a pleasure. Nothing makes me feel better than taking off my watch and showing it to a friend (especially those that don't know about

Who wants a Tudor GMT?
Forum is quiet on this one. Since I have a GMT it doesn't seem right for me to have another but the more I see, the more it seems like an absolute cracker of a GMT! Very tempted to land one at some point to use as a daily whilst my weekenders are safely safe in the safe. I seem to be the opposite of most on here - I'm more interested in it than the SS BLRO. A lot more! I see posts from people going nuts about the NEW SS BLRO and wonder what the fuss is about. I don't believe the new movt has attracted most of these crazed fanatics. So basically a Super Jubilee with a new clasp on it and now made in SS instead of WG ..which looked similar enough? Woooah.
