Jaeger-LeCoultre Sets Up Dedicated Site For Hybris Mechanica Grande Sonnerie Watch, To Make Case For $2.5 Million Purchase
First of all, I am a big fan of the new Jaeger-LeCoultre Hybris Mechanica Grande Sonnerie watch and the accompanying set. I discussed it at length here when going over the announcement of the Hybris Mechanica. Once again, it is the current most complex watch in the world, comes in a limited edition of just 30 sets, and will cost over $2.5 million. Recently Jaeger-LeCoultre has unveiled the watch itself and the uber display box (the safe), they have also opened a dedicated website to showcase just what the Hybris Mechanica set is all about, focusing of course on the Grande Sonnerie. You can check out the site here. The site is very nice looking and gives you lots of nice little details about the watch that you'd otherwise miss by just looking at it. However, the site is not easy to navigate - another victim of form over function. Just look out for the easy to miss "X" button on the upper right hand corner when you want to go back to the previous page (welcome to a Flash-based nightmare)

Present: Audemars Piguet ROO Panda (26170) or Audemars Piguet ROO Diver (15707)?
Hi, not sure why there is no Audemars Piguet topic under: Watch brandsBut I hope my post is at the right place here.My brother wants to purchase a watch for me for my 30th birthday when he's going to Switzerland. I have to be honest, I've never been a watch guy nor did I have any interest in it unlike my brother. He said I can have any watch I want with a max of $30.000. Well, I had to catch-up and read a lot on high-end watches to educate myself a bit (but it's still not enough).Anyway, I decided to go for a brand that he doesn't own one piece of, and that the AP brand ( royal oak offshore). I think this brand/series is something that fits my lifestyle the best: I am and always have been a sports fanatic: I'm generally a lot outdoors, going to the gym 5 days a week, do competitive swimming, as well as swimming in hotel pools, in lakes and oceans, do a lot of mountainbiking, motorcycle riding, travel a lot around the world: and would like to be prepared for every situation that can pos

Question about now discontinued Nautilus...
Hey,I'm a fairly new Patek owner and have been really enjoying this forum.A quick question as I'm unsure of which direction to take and would appreciate some insight:I own a 5726 white dial (absolutely love) and a 5205G. Love both watches and they have only wetted my long-suppressed appetite for more Patek. I'm especially enamored with the Nautilus, as it wears beautifully and just feels right. I planned on adding another Nautilus and I was going to try and source the classic 5711 blue dial. But I just got a very good deal on a new 5980 blue dial that is hard to pass up. Being that I already own a Nautilus with a complication, do you think its overkill to go with another complication, the 5980? Also, being that the model is now discontinued, should I anticipate an increase in value or was the 5980 not great seller in the first place? Bottom line, I could add to my collection with a 5980 new now, for a very appealing price, or have to wait months, perhaps even half a year from wh
