Hands-On: With The New F.P. Journe Octa Sport And Centigraphe Sport In Titanium (Live Pics, Full Specs, & Pricing)
When F.P. Journe unveiled his Octa Sports line of watches back in 2011, we (the royal watch collecting "we") could simply not believe how light they were. After all, the F.P. Journe "lineSport" pieces, being the Octa Sport and the Centrigraphe (CTS), were made entirely of aluminum. Yes, aluminum! They were so light, they almost felt fake (seriously). They were not fake, they were just absurdly light, and absurdly cool. In fact, the very first aluminum CTS sold at Christie's for over $467,000. Yeah. That cool. But, all things must evolve, and today we have a look at the new line of sports pieces from Journe �C the very same models, but instead of the incredibly lightweight aluminum, they are now in titanium. 2 OF 18 The switch from aluminum to titanium was indeed a structural move. The soft qualities of aluminum posed some difficulties and Mr. Journe felt a completely titanium watch would still provide the incredible lightness the lineSport lovers were used to, without any

Breitling Superocean Heritage 46mm in Black or Blue
I am looking forward to buying the above watch but I can't decide on the color. Most of my dive watches are in black. So far, I only own a blue dive watch. Black just sings to me and more versatile. But, black is boring and I have so many watches with black dial already. Blue will be more interesting, but it is more casual. In addition, the original Breitling Superocean Heritage was only in black, so black is more of an accurate reissue. I am definitely getting this watch with the mesh bracelet. I need to hear your opinion please? Thanks. Merry Christmas everyone!

5726 arrives
Glad to announce the arrival of my first PP, 5726. It is an incredibly comfortable and light watch. I can definitely see others in the collection getting less wrist time. The nautilus bracelet is much different from any other I've owned. I wonder if the 18kt gold bracelet is the same thickness as the SS. The bracelet and watch seem almost delicate compared to my Rolexes, but this is not a complaint, just an observation. Now, if I can only refrain myself from getting another one, the 5712R!I appreciate all of your enabling!R/Gary

Poll time: On style alone (if priced the same) 5711/1A or 5712/1A
A couple of threads lately on this and I'm curious what a cumulative poll would like. Just based on your style preference if the two were priced the same.

36
Sometime in the future, I'm looking to buy a Day Date, but I am already torn between the new style Day Date II with the 41mm case and the original Day Date 36mm.I have a relatively slender wrist of 7 inches, but the new 41mm models fit me surprisingly well. I tried some on today at my AD. I thought that the 41mm DJ and DD would be too big for me, so I thought I would just automatically go with the classic 36mm models... but this was not the case.1. So now I ask, which of the two do YOU prefer?2. Also, please post pics of your Day Dates, as I am also trying to decide between Yellow and White gold and a bright or dark face combination
