Louis Moinet Meteoris Watch Set
You are looking at the one-of-a-kind Meteoris from watch maker Louis Moinet. Meteoris is a set of four watches and this artfully-made mechanical planetarium. The set is for the serious astrological and horological connoisseur. Clearly very expensive, the set has some interesting features that are worth knowing about. Looking at the planetarium it is clear that the table-like structure is on a pedestal with an ornate mechanical planetarium on it surrounded by four pillow sections for the watches. Actually, given the complexity of the planetarium, I wish that Louis Moinet would have put more effort into giving the watches more appropriate housings. You have four piece unique watches that are each beautifully made tourbillons that are just sitting there on a pillow. At least give them a dust cover.The planetarium weighs about 100 kilos and is 150mm tall, and about 91cm in diameter. The table and mechanics where done by the mechanic R��my Chauvin. Like all good stubborn watch makers, Louis

Erwin Sattler Mixes Old & New Perfectly With The Trilogie Watch, Clock, & Winder Combo
Here is a piece of innovative watch technology and integration from a brand you probably haven't heard of. That is OK, because Erwin Sattler does not tend to make wrist watches. As a segue into dabbling in this market, they built a steampunk looking device that is very beautiful and functional combining a watch, watch winder, and clock. All in an expensive looking (and costing) crystal and leather case (the crystal case can be lifted electronically). The various elements of the Trilogie set can be traced to Switzerland, Germany, and Austria.Lets start with the watch itself. Using a modified Swiss automatic Valjoux 7750 movement Erwin Sattler creates an attractive regulator with a classic looking, yet high functional look. While the dial may look white, it is actually solid sterling silver. The watch is impressively large at 46mm, which I love because most of the time classically styled watches such as this are 42mm or smaller. I have no doubt that this Erwin Sattler watch will look imp

Polishing a Nautilus
Has anyone ever had their 5711 polished - case, bezel and/or bracelet by a PP service centre? What was your experience and how satisfied were you after getting back the watch? Was it good as new or were you able to tell that it was polished? Reason I'm asking is because we all know the 5711 is a scratch magnet and I've been very, very careful while wearing it - sometimes to the point where the fear of scratching it takes away the joy of wearing it. However, if I know that when it does get scratched up but I'll be able to bring the watch back to its original pristine condition - I'll be less paranoid and can really enjoy wearing it.

BLNR vs Motorcycle Wreck
Hello all, I was in a wreck while riding a Harley, hit the ground at about 50mph and was a rag doll for a couple hundred feet. Lucky to be alive and only have some sprains, road rash, and a broken collar bone. The Rolex, while tough as nails, wasn't so lucky.Anyone able to ball park what Rolex might charge to fix? It's a great story for the watch if its fixable!
