Porsche Design Rolls Out New Watches For Its 40th Anniversary
The Porsche Design Studio, founded by Porsche 911 designer Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, marks four decades this year. To celebrate, Porsche Design is releasing four new watches: a limited-edition model of its very first product, the Chronograph I, and three new additions to its Flat Six collection.The limited-edition Chronograph I features a matte silver-gray case and bracelet, replacing the matte-black color scheme of the original from 1972. Most of the other details remain the same, including the black dial; the type, hands and bar indices filled with white luminous substance; and the red central chronograph hand. It is identified as an anniversary edition by the “40Y” immediately beneath the day/date windows at 3 o’clock. The watch, which is limited to 911 pieces worldwide, comes packaged in a special collectors’ box labeled “40Y of Iconic Products” along with another limited-edition Porsche Design anniversary item, a pair of P’8478 sunglass

Hands-On: With The Absolutely Insane Blancpain X Fathoms (Live Pics, Official Pricing)
This is a good one, folks.? If you know anything about dive watches, you know that the Fifty Fathoms from Blancpain is often put in the same league as the Rolex Submariner when it comes to category-creating sport watches.? The 50 Fathoms, according to some, even pre-dates the Submariner by a year, and it was used by countless armed forces throughout the 20th century.Today, Blancpain continues the Fifty Fathoms line in a few different varieties, including this guy with a "no radiation" dial, a HODINKEE favorite.? But, the undisputed king of the Blancpain dive watches is this monster you see above, entitled the X Fathoms. 2 OF 14 The X Fathoms is something of a concept dive watch (though indeed put into production and sold via traditional retail channels), that was designed to be the ultimate in mechanical dive tools.? It features all of the following: a mechanical depth gauge, amorphous metal membrane, depth indication on two scales, maximum depth memory with secured reset

Ellis
Hi, This is my old Swiss made Ellis. I know little about the make other than it is Swiss.inside the case back there are several marks which I guess are service dates, but I am not sure. In order from top to bottom they read- 718W, 829W, 456, and cant read the next few lines then it reads 11-08. Case back also says S. Kocher & Co Swiss. Anyone able to help age this watch? Thank you, I do appreciate the assistance.DSCF1071a.jpgDSCF1072a.jpg

Portuguese Chrono strange behavior
Hello,I just bougth a beautiful Portuguese Chrono, white dial and blue hands. I was shopping for a sportier watch but I was completely taken away when I was showed this!After few days, however I started noticing that, while the watch was keeping perfect time, the second hand would "stumble" at around 37 sec and then catch up.Can anyone give me an idea on what may cause that?Thanks

Best Rolex Encyclopedia Books
I keep looking at the advert from Mondani books, and on Amazon but the prices seem a little high. I even tried to get a copy of one of the books from the library, but there was only one copy in the Library of Congress. Any decently priced Rolex books available on Amazon?
