Three Things to Know About the Patek Philippe Chiming Jump Hour
The ornate, double-dialed Grandmaster Chime dominated coverage of Patek Philippe¡¯s 175th anniversary, which the brand marked last year. It is an amazing timepiece that makes a big statement. The watch we look at today is its counterpoint. With one dial and two hands, it appears to be the paradigm of simplicity, but it¡¯s not.The Patek Philippe Chiming Jump Hour is one of the timepieces Patek Philippe created to celebrate its 175th anniversary. Bearing Reference 5275P-001, it will be produced in a limited edition of 175 pieces, priced at SFr. 310,000. As the name indicates, this watch offers a jumping hour display with minutes and small seconds, and it strikes a single chime at the top of each hour. Let¡¯s take a look at why this watch is much more than meets the eye.Patek’s Ref. 5275 Chiming Jump Hour is far more complicated than it looks.1. Complexity and RarityThe old adage about not judging a book by its cover was written for the Chiming Jump Hour. If you don¡¯t think a watch tha

How bad is the durability of the AP RO really? Will she dent easy?
Hey guys.Yes it is this thread again. I do apologize, however I really just want to get an idea on what I am getting myself into. I actually don't mind scratches at all, especially knowing I will get the watch serviced every few years and have it polished, it doesn't bother me much.Having said this, will the RO pick up scratches on the very least things though?Also, if accidentally slamming a door, or a wall, can I expect a dent, and having to change the actual bezel?Surely they can't be that fragile? So many people questioning the durability is what makes me raise these questions.I do appreciate all the help. Any response is appreciated!Thanks guys

Breitling for Bentley Flying B
Braved the crowds for Christmas shopping on the weekend, and happened to see a new Breitling for Bentley Flying B in a shop window. One of these:I must say, this is one rather different looking watch in the 'flesh'. My impressions after seeing photos, was one of a watch that was rather sleek, refined and worked well as a whole. However, I was very dissapointed when I actually saw the thing. It just looks really, really square, above all else.Large, ungainly and almost gaudy are other words that spring to mind. It's very attention-getting....oh...and shiny!I knew immediately what it was, even with only a quick glance.But that great hobnail style pattern. and the round dials almost dissapeared, and were overpowered by the actual case of the watch.But, these are just my first impressions. I normally like the size and heft of Breitlings, especially the more complicated ones, but this one just seemed a bit too different for my tastes.Anyone here seen one, or tried one on?
