Xemex Concept One Chronograph Watch
It feels like it has been a while since we have seen something totally new from Xemex. The last few years saw increasingly up-market timepieces from Xemex as the Swiss watch market kept getting stronger. We all know what happened recently and this new Concept One Chronograph watch is going to be quite reasonably priced. It does beg the question if Xemex's Ruedi Kulling decided somewhere in the design process that an up-market watch would not have as much market appeal these days, and decides to place a quartz movement inside instead of a mechanical movement. Who knows, but it is a good speculation.The quartz chronograph movement is likely a Ronda, as Xemex has been known to use their movements in the past. The functionality is simple and straight forward, but it is the interesting design direction for Xemex that interests me. The entire watch is focused around the asymmetrical case, with a lot of it leaning toward the pushers. This concept is not new (though it is for Xemex). Asymmetr

My new PO finally saw ocean
Just got back from Cabo San Lucas where my PO got its first dunk in salt water. The watch is beautiful (especially under water) and withstood the trials of partying quite well.I had been looking for a general sport watch for a while now and wearing this on one wrist with a Submariner on the other I had to choose the PO. It just looked and felt so perfect for me (plus the money I saved paid for my St. Gallen Rescue which I'll take some pics of later). While I would love to own a Rolex someday, I am very happy with my PO and it is a welcome addition to my small watch collection (and likely will get the most wear time).Obligatory pics:

Which Perpetual Calendar Chrono?
Hi guysNice to join you, I am Andrea, italian based in LondonIt has been a lot of time I have thought of buying a Patek Chrono and I am finally ready to do it My first choice would be the 5970 (either a G or a P) but, given the attractive second market price of the 5270 I was also recently looking into it..Aesthetically wise I would go for the 5970.. From an investment point of view I am excited about the 5270's first in house movement and think that sooner or later it will recover in value.. I heard that maybe at Baselworld next year also the P version will come outI am aware that you had a lot of similar discussions in the past but I would like to hear your updated thoughts given also today's prices and new models Thank you all and have a great Sunday

Good or Bad Experiences with second hand Panerai Dealers
Hi all. After years of ignoring Panerai, something in me clicked and now they're all I can think about. I've spent some time at AD's, and at a Panerai boutique so I'm getting to know the brand a little bit. The newer pams are super nice and there are a few that I'd buy under $7,000. I'm looking at older pams too though, online, and the prices are nice. A lot of choices under $6,000. (Honestly I'd love to sell a Sub 116610ln and get a Luminor and a Radiomir!)Anyway, I'm considering going the second hand route for this and am hoping someone here can tell me about a good experience they've had buying Panerai on the second hand market. Who's trustworthy? Chrono24, Crown and Caliber, Watchbox, David SW, Watchmaxx? I've been combing all the pages. The Chrono24 I suppose would depend on the seller... Thanks for your help!

Anyone can identify this Panerai?
Any help on which model Panerai?
