Limes Klassik Cartouche Watch Available: Guilloche For The Masses
Everyone deserves a really nice classic watch. Actually, let me be more clear because "classic" is probably the most common term in the watch industry, that and "heritage." A classic (or "Klassik" for my Deutsche friends) watch in this sense refers to the vintage decorating on the watch using metal engraving machines. This practice is called guilloche, and probably best done by the Germans today. Benzinger being the master.Because this style of decoration is so "classic" in the watch world, I think every one should have at least one example of it. Such beauty is really hard to appreciate unless you are looking right at it, as it is a very visual type of splendor. Limes is unusual in the small watch making world for making their own cases, and some dials. That is one of the ways that they can keep costs down. Owned by Ickler, Limes is a thoroughly German brand with a well-priced and attractive line.One of their best watches from a style and value perspective is the Limes Klassik Cartouc

Happy day AP fanatics of TRF!
Just wishing you guys and girls a happy 4th to those here in the U.S. and just another happy day to the others all around the TRF world. After a brutal last 4 weeks at work we were able to get away to one of my favorites, the four seasons in palm beach. Had to bring some watches along for the ride of course! Rolf....Fortunate to be spread out on the beach with my wife next to me and be surfing TRF at the moment. Hot as hell here!I fear thehighlander and hairdude have spiked my curiosity in this bad boy..... Went to check it out yesterday at the bal Barbour boutique! Note the white strap !Congrats on your acquisitions gentlemen!Have a great day!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
