Romain Gauthier Logical One Secret Is Not So Logical After All
A bit over a year ago Romain Gauthier?(R. Gauthier) released the Logical One, his most complicated and most expensive watch thus far. In fact, it was so extraordinary that it went on to win the prize for the Best Men's Complications Watch at the 2013 Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Gen¨¨ve, defeating pieces from Greubel Forsey, Hublot, Montblanc and others. When a brand ¨C regardless if its a smaller independent, or a major manufacture ¨C creates such a complicated and special piece, they generally try and plan different future versions of it in advance, at the time when only the base concept is being created. This is understandable as it takes several years to develop such a caliber and it is only profitable if it lives through different iterations. The Logical One is likely no exception, as one year after its debut the brand just announced an interesting new version of it, called the Secret.The greatest¨Cand most obvious¨Cdifference that the Logical One Secret offers over its predecessor is th

Porsche Design P'6780 Diver Watch Is Hand-Me-Down Eterna
When I visited the Porsche Design booth at Baselworld 2010 I was pretty amused to see the new P'6780 Diver watch cause it looked pretty familiar. In fact, just a few years ago Eterna released a watch that was almost identical, called the Eterna KonTiki Diver. I really loved about that piece and wrote about it here. Why was it that somehow the Eterna KonTiki Diver was now a simplified Porsche Design watch?For starters you should know that Eterna makes all the watches for Porsche Design. So it seemed pretty clear that this was a deliberate move, meant to erase the history of the KonTiki Diver! If you compare the two watches, the Porsche Design P'678 Diver is a bit more simple, streamlined, and hopefully a bit less expensive. The KonTiki Diver retailed for bout $10,000. Though it had a ton of cool technology. The complex titanium case flipped out of a cage for winding and for a new position on the wrist. It just felt totally space age. Also, you needed to pull out the inner case so as to

Unexpected great day!
Well, I had a great day today, as I got that so long awaited pal...I'm at work now, and don't have a camera and writing from my cell phone, will take and post pictures once I get homejust wanted to share the good feelings...Any thoughts on what I got? until I get home...Just one clue, more than one black face...

I did something stupid....
But I am happy. As some of you know I was looking for a dressier piece to add to my collection without any luck. Yesterday I was talking with My AD and he showed me the amazing 5711 in blue (Hard to get and you need to be on a waiting list). I had bought the white 5711 a couple of months ago and I am very happy with the piece, but once I saw the perfection of the blue dial I was hooked and said What the heck. I know most of you would disagree in getting two of the same in different color but the 5711 in blue is a must and breaks any logic. You have no idea how this dial changes hues, its like its alive.... simply stunning and ridiculous at the same time. I can also blame Puffy and Mike for their amazing photos (LOL)..... just intoxicating in a good way. At the end of the day if I get bored I know any of the 5711s would easily find a loving home. And to make matters even worse (hehe) my AD ended the day with a cherry on top, and as a companion for the blue 5711, he threw in something so
