IWC Portuguese Sid¨¦rale Scafusia Watch: Super Complex, Over $750,000
What you are seeing here is the most complicated IWC watch ever created. It is called the Portuguese Sid¨¦rale Scafusia (ref. 5041) and it will be available only via custom order. IWC recently launched it at a powerful celestial observatory in Chile, and it represents a new high-mark for the brand. While the watch itself is very interesting, the lesson it can teach us about how high-end watch brands operate is even more interesting.According to IWC a team of watch makers spent about 10 years researching and developing the Portuguese Sid¨¦rale Scafusia mechanism. While at least one other IWC watch offers more complications, the Portuguese Sid¨¦rale Scafusia is a much more complicated watch.

Some new tourbillon pics!!!!!
Some new pics of the new Stuhrling Original 40mm tourbillon.. The high-shine rose gold PVD is very difficult to photograph, as is the gray/anthracite dial.

26124ST Blue

Few questions to ask, thank you in advance
Rolex newbie here, but quite an Omega guy though.I have a budget of 4 - 4,5 K GBP for a first Rolex. I really like the look of Explorer 16570, so plenty of choices there, with or without papers. So far, so good. Even you can get it on a 12 months lease when buying from Goldsmiths or Watchfinder, no matter that they sell them really expensive, but with piece of mind as providing 12-24 months of warranty and full service before supplying the watch.I was thinking...well, to be honest, the bracelet of these Explorers 2 is not the greatest,I know it`s comfortably probably most of you will say, but majority of the watches are with folded end links. Even the ones with the SELs, they still have the cheap looking and feeling flimsy , Tissot thin buckle ,which I personally more likely don't appreciate at all. And this brings me to the core of my emotional battle with myself , particularly part 1 - why I just don't pay like 300-400 more and get a brand new Explorer 214270 with lumed indices and l
