Piaget Polo FortyFive Chronograph Watch + Video
Here is the beautiful and uncommonly sporty new Polo Chronograph from Piaget that debuted at SIHH this year. What I really like is this video from TheTimeTVwatches-dealer that has Piaget themselves casually discuss the watch. I love hearing that smooth French accent discuss this fine offering, from a fine watch company. Interestingly enough their primary focus, is my primary focus: ease of life with the watch. They aren't going on about the luxury of the watch, but rather the functions, comfort and overall quality. It is really refreshing to hear that (especially from Piaget) that them going on about how this watch "defines haute horology."You can tell that the new Polo Forty Five watch is something new for them. The first titanium Piaget watch, and certain the most sporty. As I have mentioned before, I think this is also the first Piaget watch to ever use a rubber strap. It is an evolution on the Polo theme, and we will see where the new direction takes Piaget. Another benefit of vide
Another diving trip for the Superocean II
Last week I spent a few days diving in Bohol, Philippines. Of course I got my Superocean II a bit wet. Maximum depth for this trip was 30.3 meters. It even survived the pool!
First Patek! 5167a
About a month or so ago I posted to see if anyone local to Charlotte NC had an Aquanaut that I could see and try in the flesh. The local AD hasn't had one for quite a while and the list is several folks deep to get one. Long story short I just decided to pull the trigger. So many reviews about this watch being quite comfortable and perfect. I figured all you guys couldn't be wrong. Arrived today, I sized it when I got home this evening and man...it lived up to the expectations...and more.I am very happy with my first Patek!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
5712 and 5980/5990 bracelet fitment issue
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has the same issue as me about the nautilus bracelet. On the 5712/1a there are 7 links vs the 5980/1r and 5990/1a I see 6 links total. Is that supposed to correct? I thought all nautilus has 6 links. The reason I ask is because when I remove all the links and add a 1.5 link on the 5712 it fits perfectly! But now for the 5980 and 5990 if I take off 6 links and a 1.5 it's too big... And if I remove all 6 it's too tight. This is driving me crazy! Does anyone know what I can do or does anyone have the same issue? Guess it sucks to have a small wrist or right in between sizes for the thicker nautilus.
Discounts at rolex boutique
Hi guys, I know that the rolex boutiques in london are a collaboration between the dealer and rolex and i'm curious as if you can negotiate discounts at the boutiques like you do in a authorized dealer store? Also is it too much if i expect the discount for full gold pieces like the daydate and president lady datejust to be 20%? thanks in advance.
