Parmigiani Unveils New Bugatti Watches at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance
Parmigiani, the Swiss watch brand founded by watchmaker Michel Parmigiani, introduced two new collectors’ timepieces to its Bugatti collection, made in collaboration with the prestigious automobile maker, at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. The timepieces ¡ª a rose-gold version of the Bugatti Super Sport and a new titanium Bugatti Vitesse ¡ª made their debut alongside a restored classic automobile, the 1935 Bugatti T57S Electron Torpedo. The event in Pebble Beach, regarded as the most prestigious of the festivals of classic automobiles held in the U.S., provided the ideal setting for Parmigiani to launch its newest Bugatti watches. The watch company, which was established in 1996 and is today part of Switzerland’s Sandoz Family Foundation, began its partnership with Bugatti in 2004, releasing such collectible timepieces as the Bugatti Type 370 and the Bugatti Super Sport, which debuted in a white-gold case in 2010.

TUDOR Heritage Black Bay Bronze
Tudor ¨C Heritage Black Bay BronzeBronze is a glossy blend of copper and metals (aluminium, tin, lead) that's stronger and heavier than steel. Unlike other iron materials, seawater hardly affects it and rust gives it a beautiful green-grey patina. Bronze has fascinated mankind since the dawn of time and we've used it a million ways from prehistoric tools to 21st century watch cases, just like the new Heritage Black Bay Bronze by Tudor.Its 43mm bronze case is slightly larger than its Heritage Black Bay brothers and has the self-winding in-house MT5601 calibre which provides a 70-hour power reserve and is COSC-certified.Its slightly domed milk chocolate dial features luminescent bronze bevelled indices and Arabic numerals with a bronze minute track. The hours, minutes and seconds are tracked by phosphorescent gold hands.Price: 3,800 CHFBy Sharmila Bertin

Eta Valjoux 7750 questions
I just got a watch with the Eta 7750 movement and have a couple questions. First I have heard some automatics can not be wound manually can this be wound with the crown? If so which way do I wind it toward the 12 or 6 o' clock position? I have also heard some automatics only wind when the rotor spins in one direction what about this one? And if it only winds in one direction which direction for this particular model?Thanks.

What will our friend Ben do on 1/1??
As many regulars on here will know one of our dear friends, Ben, has an addiction problem, and has banned himself from any watch purchases in 2016 accordingly. It is therefore fair to assume that there will be about a dozen incomings queued up for January 1st onwards.So, what do we think he should do and what are the contenders?

Brestro....
....or Bronze Destro. It's inevitable that such a model is coming, given the fact that Panerai as of lately resembles a cheap italian hooker in the way they go about their loyalty to collectors and their (tongue in cheek) 'exclusivity'. 'New' models are just old models with small tweaks, when something is 'rare and limited', rest assured that another model is already in production which is similar and also 'limited'. I miss the days of small production Panerai. Call me a hopeless nostalgic.
