My First Grail Watch: Mike Margolis
Welcome back to an original watches-dealer feature, "My First Grail Watch." In this series, we ask prominent people in the watch industry about the first timepiece that they lusted after. Today, we are speaking with Mike Margolis, a fellow who has worn quite a few different hats over the years, as well as being a lifelong collector of various things.watches-dealer (ABTW): Who are you, and what is your relationship to the watch industry?Mike Margolis: I am the North American distributor for H.

Hautlence HL-Q Watch + Videos
I would really love one of these watches - another in my "cannot afford, not even close" collection of watch desires. I can still appreciate them from afar right? The first Hautlence watches were in cases that looked like TV screens, and finally we see them in a round cased watch. You can see from the images and videos that there are many different styles that arose from the base design. If you want to click here (in French), you can see almost all of the watches in the Hautlence HL-Q collection. The timepiece begins here with the new case that is 44mm wide and has an interesting construction. I like how the lugs are applied and their cool special types of screws. Not sure about all the materials used. There are of course the gold versions (rose and perhaps white), as well as some to be in titanium or matte finished steel. The dial options are also impressive with a number of different treatments I am quite fond of looking at. As such, the dials are the most complex parts of the watch.

So here you have it, our tops picks of what watch (or watches) we would buy with the $1.5 billion winnings. Nicholas Manousos ¨C George Daniels' Space Traveller 1 OF 6 If I win Powerball tonight and could splurge on any watch imaginable, I would attempt to purchase George Daniels' Space Traveller watch. I say attempt, because the Space Traveller is a one-of-a-kind watch that was last sold at auction on November 6, 2012 for 1,329,250 GBP. I would have to somehow find the current owner, and convince them to part ways with their unique piece of horological history. Finished in 1982, the Space Traveller is George Daniels' masterpiece.
