Hublot Watch & Auction For Boxing Legends
I was with Hublot in Las Vegas for a very atypical watch event. A merging of two extremely different worlds coming together for fun, publicity, and the pursuit of mutual goals. The rowdy and often dramatic world of professional boxing has little in common with the clean lines and sober attitudes you'll find in the luxury world. The heroes of watch making are executives, designers, creative minds, and marketers. They celebrate men and women of greatness from afar, and from a public perspective the luxury and watch business has a clean and stately face.Boxing is about fighting and the clashing of personalities to evoke excitement over the next big event. It is a hard and fast life for the stars, who often fade once the glory has worn off. Only a handful move on to make something of themselves in alternative businesses once they retire from boxing. Like the champions of many sports, life after competition is usually not very interesting. Especially those who haven't handled their finances

Too Much Blue?
I have a blue, ceramic Seamaster that I really like. The stainless band, however, is a little too blingy for my taste so I decided to swap it out with a blue rubber strap that I have.Here is the before picture:image.jpg

Panerai - Staying true to its history with the 673
I love the history of Panerai - is there any other manufacturer that produces such a close and authentic version of the original watches that the modern equivilants are based on?The only reason I own this watch is due to falling in love with the picture behind it of the original beaten and battered 1950's piece that I'd seen and drooled over countless times previously.I was very close to purchasing a Pam372 as at the time that was the closest thing I could find to the picture I'd fallen hopelessly in love with!Then to my utter joy in 2016 Panerai released a limited edition (ref 673) tribute to the very watch I'd dreamed of for so long. I actually remember feeling a little sick when I saw it for the first time I was so excited.Anyway, needles to say I didn't need much persuading when I eventually managed to find an AD that had one available.This ones definitely a keeper for me - I still get a little buzz every time I put her on the wrist for the day.Thanks for allowing me to share my lo

Honest question RE: LV vs LVc
I see a lot of references here regarding the Hulk submariner. When I go to the official Rolex website I see the model listed as a 116610LV. However, I regularly see it referred to as the LVc here on the forums. I've researched it and can't find the answer. Where does the c come in? What is the difference between a LV and a LVc?
