Raymond Weil Freelancer Piper Watch
I have noticed a trend: luxury watch brands are pairing off with other brands to create new versions of their existing watches. Now, this is by no means a new trend, but it is one that seems to have had an appreciable uptick as of late. Unsurprisingly, these collaborations focus in on other accouterments of a luxury lifestyle. When it comes to status symbols, owning your own plane certainly is up there, and for those who feel drawn to the products from Piper Aircraft, the new Raymond Weil Freelancer Piper will mean?an interesting continuation of?that trend.Surprisingly enough for a collaboration like this, I see no mention of Piper Aircraft on the watch at all (we confirmed with the brand that the Piper logo only shows up on the box). This makes for an odd collaboration, but it also makes it a bit more flexible for those who are not flying Pipers: it's simply a pilot watch from Raymond Weil.Specific branding aside, the Raymond Weil Freelancer Piper definitely has a full swath of airpla
Barrington Single Watch Winder And Double Watch Winder Review
There are a number of solid reasons why I have not considered getting a watch winder before. In no particular order, these included price, reliability, build quality, functionality and value. There are some cheap and (not-so) cheerful eBay solutions �C with infamous reliability issues �C while?at the other end of the spectrum, one has the several hundred to several thousand dollar segment �C an amount many would?rather spend on watches themselves.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ?'s
OKI need some help here....About to do it, I have the 233 sold just waiting on the fundswhich are going out overnight mail today.I am about to get into a Audemar Piguet Royal Oak Offshore.I am not going with my absolute first choice as I think I have found too good of a deal to pass up and in a recent interview AP made it clear there will be a new variation of the ROO coming out and implied the current ROO will remain... This gives me hope they will bring out the Charcoal dial I love in a SS model so this will get me into the ROO family and I can always upgrade later (isn't that what we all do in one way or another sooner or later anyway?)So....1) Does ANYONE have any idea as to what fair market value on a used AP ROO Black Face Rubber Clad is worth?2) What do you guys think of the ROO? What are your experiences and thoughts (please state if you have or have had one as well.)Thanks!!!Oh yes.... If you have/had one please let me know about what size wrist you have, if it was on a strap
