Antoine Martin Tourbillon Astronomique Watch Is $565,000
Antoine Martin has rightfully earned itself a special place in the heart of hardcore watch enthusiasts with their Slow Runner piece and its huge, gracefully oscillating balance wheel exposed at the caseback. But there is another side to the brand, one that offers more traditional complications, re-interpreted to fit into the rather well-defined styling cues of the brand. In 2012, Ariel went hands-on with their perpetual calendar and tourbillon model, and today we are debuting the Tourbillon Astronomique, a watch they also refer to as their "Masterpiece No. 1". Now, that is a name that we find rather fitting for what is an incredibly complicated piece that fuses more traditional features with a number of unique astronomical indications.Looking at the list of features and the actual dial of the Tourbillon Astronomique, it gives the impression of a watch that was intended to be complicated in the first place, but then somehow morphed into a watch maker's wet dream, comprising an array of

Lately I've been thinking of selling a couple to fund a PM piece, but then not sure if thats real prudent, as you can see they're all out of production, and additionally all are full sets except for the bart and speedy (145.022-69).Oh, and extra vintage bezel inserts, and bracelets not pictured. geez. lol.Anyone have similar story as to how it pains them to see their beauties squirreled away??Sent from my SM-G920V usin

My new box arrive!! The best Rolex I ever got!! The 2017 new panda 116509!!
Happy new year to all members!!I am so glad to share my new rolex which I fall in love immediately when I saw it. And I am fortunate to get one brand new with reasonable price. (yes, still alot to me!! ). Here the unboxing:Generated from my LG H990 using tools.rackonlyThis is not the hottest 116519ln with ceramic bezel, the 116519ln is surely the stunning watch, but I like this 116509 more with it solid bracelet and the white gold bezel, a more even weight, and which also remind me the vintage 6265 panda daytona look. What's more, I prefer this one a little bit more over the arabic panda dial as this dial give me a simple and clean looking with the great steel/black panda :) Generated from my LG H990 using tools.rackonlyOn the wrist the watch looks stunng, the steel color match the warm-tone white gold perfectly! This is just like the steel dial become part of the white gold with the bezel/case and make the panda sub-dials pop out nicely. At some angles, the panda subdials

DaytonaC in a display window
Today, traveling for business in NYC, I passed a store with a DaytonaC 116500 Black in the window display. I went in to ask: USD 18,000. Take a look at the store, and the display. Is it a real DaytonaC?
