ELYSEE Aviator Automatic Watch Winner
Congrats to Dean that was the lucky winner of the ELYSEE Aviator Automatic watch that was the aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer giveaway of May 2011. Here are his thoughts:"I have been waiting anxiously for this watch to arrive since your last email, and on Thursday it finally arrived.I was so exited I gave the UPS guy a hug.The box was impressive and meticulous, as is anything German or Swiss.As soon as I held the watch in my hand I felt the quality in the weight and in the materials. and I realized that this is the highest quality and the best piece of human engineering I've ever held in my hand.I've been wearing the watch for the past three days and it is very comfortable and fits me perfectly. it never feels too heavy or bulky.I love putting it close to my ear and listening to the fast ticking of the second hand.It came with simple to understand instructions on how to get it started and set.The box has a main compartment for the watch and a little drawer to hold parts or accessories. it is

Perrelet Regulator Retrograde Watch
The people at Perrelet are at it again, dancing the complication jig. This new Perrelet Regulator Retrograde watch mixes a few complications in a way that (to my knowledge) hasn't been done before. You have a retrograde hour display, regulator style separation between the hours, minutes, and seconds (that occupies the main dial), and a periphery style date display. The balance of the elements is quite good. Plus, there is likely to one one (or two) people in the world who have been dreaming for a watch that combines all these complications together.So if no one has been clamoring for a watch like this, what is the point? Well, to look cool. Watches with various different hands and types of dials are visually fascinating. People will look at the piece and ask "what exactly is going on there?" You can see how Perrelet split the watch in to two personalities (as is typical for them to do these days). There is the slightly larger sporty model in titanium that is 43.5mm wide, and a more for

Incoming ......... first in 2014
Just acquired this new model of 2014. It is a very eye catching Navy. I was debating between the Black and this Navy while I was at my local AD yesterday.My eye was caught when this Navy first came out in SIHH 2014 and by chance, I bumped with this beauty. I was told that the new models won't be available until June this year.The Black also has a very sharp match between black and red. The hornback strap with red stitch is also very nice.The Navy has a very beautiful royal-blue dial contrasting with orange hands. The blue rubber strap matches perfectly with the dial. The strap with the tang buckle is also very comfortable to wear. The rubber material seems softer than that of my Diver, hence even better.The difference in price tag between the Black and the Navy is just USD380, therefore, whichever one I go for, there is no significant concern.At the end, the Navy wins over the Black because the Navy is the first one that caught my eyes when it was released and I have some black
