Interview With MB&F Watches Founder Max B��sser
Previous contributor to aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer Tom Mulraney posted a nice interview with MB&F's owner Max Busser. To be honest, most of the time I could care less about interviews with watch executives. It is a lot of "blowing smoke up their own asses." However, Max Busser is different, and the information provided in the interview is quite interesting if you care at all about the business side of the watch industry - especially when it comes to popular independents like MB&F (a brand that I cover pretty often).Read the Tom Mulraney interview of Max Busser here.

Suunto Triathalon Collection t6c Red Arrow & t3c Black Arrow Watches
Suunto doesn't make just "watches," but rather "wrist-top computers." This new line of watches has been designed in partnership with the International Triathlon Union (ITU). That means the watches have been designed for some serious and specific training use. The traditional training watch was light weight, had some timing functions, and that is it. Later models enjoyed such functions like heart rate monitors, and other cool functions. But the Suunto t6c Red Arrow is light years ahead of the "past." The watch is part of an optional modular system of "Pods," which are units that are GPS devices, or others that fit on shoes, bicycles, etc.. .to help measure distance and cadence. In addition to all this available data, the t6c Red Arrow takes all this information together and has some clever software that not only logs and plots it for you, but helps to calculate calories burned, Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC), and Training Benefit (which is a measurement of the aerobic be

Ultra Rare Temption Cherubin-R Watch Available On eBay: Humorous Typo Included, Or Clever Auction Angle?
It is with great delight that I see beloved Temption watches available on eBay from time to time. The small yet inspiring German watch maker produces around 700 watches a year only. So you can imagine how few of those end up on the eBay America. Watch Expo is one of the few US dealers of Temption watches and has a two available on eBay now. The far rarer of the two is a Temption Cherubin-R White Watch with beautiful blue hands and accents. A watch that retails new for over $6,000. It is available on eBay new for almost half of that.The Temption Cherubin-R is a gorgeous watch. Plump hands on a well designed face make for remarkable legibility and function. Temption makes it a point that each specific watch has a slightly different color with matched cabochons (decorative elements usually gems, placed inside of a crown) in the crown and pushers, so you are getting a truly unique watch for your investment. As such, there are models with black faces, or with white faces and white accents,

Extremely Rare Dial Patek Philippe 5167 Aquanaut
Just today the owner of a Patek 5167 discovered he just happened to own the rarest 5167 dial known to exist. The issue came to light when discussing dial differences on a forum called TRF just this morning. Where all other Patek 5167's have Swiss Made at the bottom of the 6 marker, this one does not have the label at all. This revelation was called stunning by some and some News agencies and some Patek owners where said to have been so excited some just lost all kinds of bladder control.Owner is said to be extremely happy and may lose bladder control as well.Anyway we believe this watch will most likey to equal if not exceed all known records for the most expensive watch ever known to man when and if the owner ever decides to sell it at auction.This is a picture of the Patek 5167 in question.
