Orbita Avanti 4 Vertical Stack Watch Winder Review
While there is nothing radically different or innovative about this watch winder, it represents an interesting flavor as part of Orbita's Avanti watch winder collection. Watch winders do come in a lot of varieties, but consumers still have a tiny choice of decent brands compared to those who make watches. I find that interesting especially since making watch winders is arguably more simple than making watches. Nevertheless, the humble watch winder is still seeking to gain mainstream acceptance.But you?reading this are an enthusiast and adopter of all things able to make your watch buying, wearing, and storing experience a success. So you want one (probably more) watch winders to use for your collection of automatic watches. Which leads me to a funny thing Orbita (and many other watch winder brands) do - place quartz watches as models on their winders when photographing them. Am I being nit picky or is that just silly?[youtube youtubewatches-dealer/watch?v=tOLZzq8xv6E]This model is the

Server Migration Phase 2: aBlogtoRead.com Down For A Bit
A few weeks ago you may recall that I notified you that aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer would be down for a bit. That was the first phase of the upgrades to make aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer faster, and more powerful for you. Well that was a band-aid compared to what I am doing now. As such, I am undergoing a more intensive full web host migration. The site will be down a bit, can't say how long. No matter what, aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer will be back and serious soon. Wish me luck!

Today's Featured German Watch Brand...Jacques Etoile
info and pics from watchbuysJacques Etoile watches are another German success story, and owe their origins to the Jakob family. In 1955, master watchmaker Horst Jakob opened his own jewelry shop in L?rrach, Germany where he devoted his time to the repair of high-quality mechanical timepieces. It was no surprise that his son Klaus decided to follow in his father's footsteps and became a master watchmaker. Klaus' passions are the rare vintage mechanical watch calibers that are no longer produced and disappeared from circulation during the quartz era in the 1970's.Klaus Jakob decided to revive these movements and classic designs, and created Jacques Etoile as one of Germany's premier watch brands. Jacques Etoile's philosophy is to offer limited editions of exceptional timepieces to a select number of watch connoisseurs who appreciate both the movement design, finishing and overall style of the watch. These watches are nothing short of exceptional, and serve as a reminder that there was in

Report on my Patek 5205G...............
The first six weeks with my 5205G………This is the first review of a watch that I have ever done, so please bear with me, especially if the construction of it , is not quite in sync!As most of the regular members will know, and probably frustrated after, I have been in love with this piece, especially with the darker coloured (grey) dial from the moment that I first saw the photos that came out from Basel 2010. So much so that when I saw a dummy model at my AD the following month, I asked them to let me know, when the first one came in. In the meantime, not having the cash available for such a purchase, I went about doing some “Wheeling & Dealing” of my small collection, which included my FP Journe Black Label Calendrier, which to a degree I still very much regret selling. Long story short, I received a phone call from my AD back in September asking me if I was still keen on getting a 5205G? Yes was my reply, so after a small deposit had been placed and
