Boucheron Bestiary Ronde Seconde Folle Collection, The Chameleon, Frog, And Owl Watches
I wrote about these watches individually on Luxistwatches-dealer but wanted to discuss the Boucheron Bestiary Ronde Seconds Folle collection as a whole here. I had a distinct thought when I first saw this collection. It took me back to being a child at Disney Land here in California. Disney had (and I don't know if they do anymore) the ability to create a distinct type of fantasy character often via anthropomorphic with the ability to create a fond sense of some type of ambiguous nostalgia. In a nutshell, that means classic Disney cartoon characters have a way of making you feel good and friendly, and you are not always sure why. I see a bit of of this sentiment in these cartoon-like animal character in the Boucheron Bestiary collection (really they could have used a better term that bestiary - seriously not friendly enough a term, plus we are talking about only three animals).This is especially evident in the frog and the owl. Is there not something a bit Disney-esque about them? Then

The Restoration Of The Girard-Perregaux Caliber 350, The Most Important Quartz Watch You've Neve
Quartz.  We pretend it's not there, but it defines the modern world of watchmaking.  And yet, once upon a time, it was the new kid on the block an unknown quantity whose influence had yet to be felt.  We're very pleased to present to you one of the most important and influential watches you've probably never heard of: the Girard-Perregaux Caliber 350.  Our watchmaker-in-residence, Aaron Berlow, takes us inside this groundbreaking movement, which influences quartz timekeeping design to this day, and shows us what makes it tick. Ed. Asking many watchmakers what they think about quartz is like asking a die-hard American conservative what they think about government regulation. There is a visceral hatred of this technology that was both so much more accurate and so much cheaper than mechanical movements. It very nearly turned Swiss watchmaking into American watchmaking (that is to say, obsolete.) This disdain has led to some amazing innovations and some incr

Can't believe I found one
This is my first post in the forum, but far from the first time I'm in here.Since I graduated from Uni in 2007, I had promised my self 'an award' of some kind, and it didn't take long to decide that it had to be watch.But time flies, and suddenly the calendar shows 2009, and a lot of things are going on right now; I've recently proposed to my girlfriend, we're becoming parents in January and we've just moved from a tiny appartment into our dream house.So I decided, that there couldn't be a better time than now to get a watch that would be marking this year forever.Hmm but 'forever'? Then I guess the watch needed to be a classic time piece that will still look good 20 years from now.Having done some research, I finally decided on an Omega Seamaster. The Rolex submariner was also a contender. But the Rolex brand just doen't do it for meSo a seamaster it was.The SMP 'bond' version, was one of the best whatches I could find, in terms of size, price, design and quality. So the decision was

How many links do you have on the 6 o'clock side
when wearing your Sub / SD? With a bracelet that has a full set of links, do you have 4.5 or 5.5 on the 'inside'. Seems the watch rides better on the wrist w/4.5 for me.. how 'bout you?TIA!
