Introducing The Piaget Altiplano Scrimshaw, With A Dial Made Of 40,000 Year Old Mammoth Tusk (Live P
A few weeks ago, we gave you a hands-on look at the Piaget 900P, the thinnest mechanical watch in the world. But this isn't the only new watch Piaget is showing at SIHH. The Altiplano Scrimshaw features a dial made from fossilized mammoth ivory that is then engraved with a map of the Eastern Hemisphere using traditional scrimshaw techniques. Each dial takes 65 hours to produce and these watches really are unique little works of art. 2 OF 15 The Altiplano Scrimshaw starts simply enough – a 38mm Altiplano case in either white or pink gold with an in-house 400P ultra-thin calibre.

My AD called and said I should come in for a visit.... the long awaited addition had arrived...The quality of Patek never ceases to amaze me... and this is only the instruction book...Sealed and waiting.....What better watch to wear for the pick up of the 5370p than the other major release from the Patek 2015 collection... here it is with my 5524gAs many on here have said previously the 5370p is one of the best from Patek. It has all the classic elements that make the brand so special. Looking forward to a lifetime with this piece. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Need info about my patek
I am new to this site and am hoping to find help with a Patek Philippe 2526 I have which has been in my safety deposit box for years. It is a GUBELIN model in 18kt gold with a solid 18kt gold bracelet band. Years ago I had it authenticated and when inspected the jeweler showed me the gold ingot on a track which rotates to automatically wind the watch. I am now getting on in my years and am considering selling it but am by far no expert or collector just have a few watches I put away years ago. I also have a rolex submariner 18kt gold with a 18 kt gold diver band which I will be asking for help on the rolex thread.All info would be gratefully appreciated and I will attempt to upload pictures if I am allowed due to my being new to this blog.Thanks to all.Larry (bullstone) Stone
