Frederique Constant Classic Moonphase Review
When Frederique Constant released the Classic Moonphase a few months ago, it seemed to turn a lot of heads. Staying true to the brand's philosophy of creating accessible luxury timepieces, the watch boasted a new in-house caliber (more of a variation, to be picky) and a decidedly Patek-y look for a relatively low price point. Coming in just below $4k, the watch offered a lot of value for an in-house movement, and an aesthetic that often costs an arm and a leg to obtain. It also showed off an eye-catching flip-open case back, which gave it some unexpected panache.The last time we reviewed an FC it was the spiritual cousin of this watch, the Slimline Moonphase, which used a similar movement, and achieved high points for style and finish. While the watch was a winner, one of the complaints a lot of people had about it was the 42mm diameter.

Can some please help identify this watch?
This a watch that was given to me by my father, my mom bought it for him shortly after they were married in 1959,All I know about it is what he tells me, He said it was called a "Diamond Jim Brady" but I cannot find any info on this watch anywhere.I know it's 14k white gold, has a black silk strap with suede, its looks like a Tuxedo, but this has larger diamonds, and this one has diamonds on the dial,any help would be appreciated,myhamilton.jpgmyhamilton1.jpg

My new Riva. . .
NOT! Although Mrs. Rusty loves boats, this one would be a stretch, a very big stretch.The Riva history started when Pietro Riva took up a formidable challenge to repair two storm-damaged fishing boats. Later, Riva, already famous for his exceptional carpentry skills, was specially committed to build a new boat by a wealthy client. Nowadays, Riva is the most ancient shipyard in the world that maintained continuous production and member of the Ferretti Group, international leader in luxury yachting. It is proud of 22 production units.Here is a better pic of one of the Aqua Riva watches mentioned in the Feb. 2008 IW magazine. It seems more Euro than American IMHO.Source of pix/copy: infoniac

Today, I am wearing Max and foghorn's watch (which is really my watch) although I love foggy's pic of his Accutron Buzz Aldrin which really looks like it was shot on the moon.
