Hublot GreenGo Bang Watch: To Celebrate Partying
Have you been to the Gstaad Palace? No? Well, then I am sorry to say that you probably don't know about GreenGo - the popular club that is now celebrating its 40th anniversary. I don't think it has changed since it was created. According to their site (and images), the club remains in its 1970s era fittings. Looks like what would happen if you built a lounge in an underground pool that just happened to double as a dungeon. Though for this Californian, the name of the 'hot spot' is just "gringo." What is more funny is that the watch almost has the colors of the Mexican flag on it.According to GreenGo's website. It is open only during the winter (what, no one visits Gstaad during the summer?), and is "THE place to be. It is a special place with a special environment." Doesn't get more specific than that right? The copy on their site is totally cheesy, which amuses the hell out of me. "[The DJ] plays the most popular and up-to-date songs for our illustrious clientele. Come and feel the rh

Bernhardt Binnacle Retro Review
Bernhardt is one of those cult brands that people simply love. As you can read in our brand highlight on them from a little while ago, it's a small family run brand that puts an emphasis on customer service and the relationships they make with customers. In that way, they really are unique, even amongst the boutique brands, having the feeling more of a local corner store than an internet based company. The watches themselves are very modestly priced for modern day mechanicals, most coming in between $259 and $459. As such, they have a big following of devote fans who collect their affordable dive watches.Their newest watch, the Bernhardt Binnacle Retro, is also their most expensive at $679, which is still lower than where most brands start. As the name suggests, this watch is based on vintage divers, mainly of the 60's and 70's, by featuring a barrel case and dual crown design. It also features a Swiss made ETA 2824-2 automatic movement inside, where as their other autos have Miyotas,

5296g sector or non sector dial?
Hi trf!Here I am again missing my calatrava (5196g) and I have decided I plan to get a 5296g later this year.Given that my lineup consists of a 5712, 5164, dd40 green wg, Fp bleu and a sd4k should I go for a sector or non sector 5296g?kfI worry the sector may be too casual for dressy situations but I am more a jeans/shirt type of guy.Thanks trf!Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Tried on the Pilot Travel Time 5524 - wrist shots
Had the chance to try on the 5524 and honestly loved it in person. The dial is very well balanced, and the the color is just right - a very subtle grayish blue. There's not much I can add that hasn't already been said elsewhere on this forum, except for that the new buckle was designed to look like the buckles on the over-shoulder straps that keep fighter pilots locked into their seats.

505 Opinions
I'm working with one of the well known sellers on my next watch purchase. I'm considering a 505, which would be my first Panerai.My primary concern is durability. I'm active, and the watch will be exposed to the elements. I've read early reviews discussing possible discoloration attributable to salt water or sweat. Ive also read about concerns that the composite might bubble or chip.Do any of you have real world experience or opinions regarding this reference?
