Cadillac & Rolex Over The Years: Cars Change, Watches Don't
I'll admit it. I love watches and I love cars. To me, they both represent a higher state of where design and machinery intersect. And being in the watch business for all of my life (I¡¯m a 4th generation watchmaker, and founder of TimeZonewatches-dealer), I always seem to find a correlation between people who own fine luxury cars, and those who own fine luxury watches. Having said that, the world of watches is amusingly different than that of cars.I¡¯ve always played a little game in my head as to what car corresponds to which watch - like those matching games you¡¯d play in the newspaper.

In this week's Bring A Loupe, we've got a wide range of incredibly rare vintage pieces – some of which are offered by dealers that are, more or less, "off the grid," but that I've encountered in my travels – and rare and special contemporary pieces from modern favorites Journe and Lange. Further, if you've been hunting a rare vintage chronograph, boy do we have some options for you today – think an Hermes-signed Universal, a mythical Heuer "Dark Lord," and a 1930's AP chrono in pink gold.

Heuer Monaco "Dark Lord" PVD 1 OF 10 The indisputable king of the vintage Heuer world is the Heuer Monaco "Dark Lord," or, in other words, reference 740303 N – a manually wound, PVD-coated Monaco made for just one year (1974) in very few examples. Not only is this Monaco one of the rarest watches made by Heuer, it is also one of the very first to feature

Portuguese prices? Chrono/Auto
Hi all, this is my first post, I'll wait until this evening to do my profile details, other than I am currently a wearer of a Breitling Colt Chrono, which was a gift from my parents 7 years ago, for my 18th birthday.Anyhow, I'm after something more dressy, and not really an everyday timepiece, rather one which feels special each time I strap it on.I have in mind 2 IWCs. Both would be stainless, black dial and dark brown croc. strap. The options are.. The Portuguese Auto Chrono orThe Portuguese AutomaticNot sure which is stealing my heart the most, but I would like to know others opinions. I know it's going to be down to me trying both, side by side.What are the prices of these? I'm not sure if I have a correct source, thone I found was in Euros, not US$, but I read that the Auto is 9,000 euros, whereas the chrono is 5,000. That's a big difference!
