First Look At Rocker Dan Spitz's Jeanrichard Aeroscope Limited Edition Watch
Toward the end of 2014, Jeanrichard will announce a limited edition watch produced in collaboration with rock-and-roller Dan Spitz. On his Facebook page today, Spitz previewed the prototype of the upcoming model that will be based on the Jeanrichard Aeroscope timepiece. Dan was wearing it on his wrist presumably at the pool in his Florida home. We know that Dan has been looking to partner with a watch brand for quite sometime. What makes Spitz a bit different from your average watch-loving musician is that he himself is a watchmaker.Now, 51-year-old Dan Spitz took a break from music in 1995, after leaving the band Anthrax to become a watchmaker. He attended the prestigious WOSTEP watchmaking school in Switzerland. Spitz eventually returned to music in the early 2000s, but remains a very special type of celebrity watch lover because of his watchmaker training. Spitz has flirted with the idea of working with a few timepiece brands, and it seems to have worked out with Jeanrichard, who wh

When You Must Travel With Lots Of Watches And Have Servants, Piaget Is There For You With the Collector's Trunk
I had an opportunity to experience these watch trunks from Piaget a few months ago while some Piaget representatives where in San Francisco at a watch show. I was impressed that the company had these enormous custom made watch cases fit for a passenger on the Titanic. What I didn't know was that enough people would declare "I want one," sufficient for Piaget to go out and produce enough of them for sale to the semi-public. Well here you have it, the Piaget Collector's Trunk is surely kit for a king, or any other manner of royalty (price to correspond).These are very high quality watch cases, that you can travel with. Inside each closing trunk is room for 51 watches, complete with various display modules, watch winders, drawers, mirrors, and other features for the distinguished watch fetishist. Frankly, I'd love one of these trunks, but it will probably cost several times the value of a new luxury car. Piaget themselves only commissions the watch trunks. The actual manufacturer is the e

Serial Number and Warranty?? Got my first Hammy Today!
Hello All,I just picked up my first Hamilton today. I got the Hamilton Jazzmaster Moonphase:Hamilton Jazzmaster Moonphase.jpgDoes anyone know where the serial number for this watch is? All I see on the back is the movement number (7751) and the Model number. Should this watch have a serial number? Also, I purchased this watch from Macy's. Does anyone know if they are an authorized dealer? The sales rep told me that I would be covered under the company's warranty and stamped my warranty card with purchase time and place. But if Macy's isn't an authorized dealer, does this mean that my warranty is now voided?Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
