Jaeger-LeCoultre Master quartz

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Memovox International
At SIHH Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced a modern version of the Master Memovox International, originally created for the brand¡¯s 125th anniversary in 1958 and also known as the Memovox Worldtimer. The alarm disk on this Memovox (“voice of memory”) features different cities and regions. This piece will be produced in two limited editions in 18-carat pink gold and in steel. These new versions are fitted with the company¡¯s Calibre 956, which is the direct descendant of JLC’s Calibre 815, the first automatic movement with alarm introduced in 1956. This is a rare example of a movement that¡¯s still in production more than 50 years after its creation, though many improvements have been added over the years. In 1959, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 825 added a date aperture at 3 o¡¯clock. In 1970 the Calibre 916 replaced its swinging weight by a 360¡ã winding rotor and increased the balance frequency from 21,600 vph to 28,800 vph, which has become the norm for precision watches.

Bring a Loupe: A Heuer That Tracks The Tides, An IWC With A Compass, A Patek With Removable Lugs, And Many Others
This week's Bring A Loupe will focus on quirky watches, and explain the special something that makes each stand out from the standard production of the brand. Among the beautiful oddities featured, you will discover an interesting Patek with removable lugs and an IWC that hides a compass. This is your Bring A Loupe for November 13, 2015. The IWC Compass Reference 3510A, True Tool Watch With A Twist 1 OF 11 The Compass model was launched in 1978 as a collaboration between Porsche Design and IWC; it offered a very astute way to combine a compass and an automatic movement. Detailed R&D – yielding six patents – was necessary to properly shield the movement from the compass' magnetism and allow a swift opening of the top part to reveal the compass underneath. As a result, the watch is obviously thick – 12 mm – but the 39 mm case size partly makes up for that. In addition, it is divinely light, having been manufactured in both aluminu

Questions about PAM275
Your help is needed please. I have decided my next Panerai will be a 275. This is a big step, financially, for me and I would like to get it right. I have been offered a J-Series model with the "dot" dial and a K Series with the "am/pm" dial. Both are brand new. I have been offered about 15% off the J Series and a little less off the K Series, both from UK Authorised Dealers. My questions are: Is the "dot" dial more collectable now it has been discontinued? Should I expect to get more than 15% off a 275 from an Authorised Dealer? It was pretty easy to get that much off. I was under the impression it was difficult to get more than 10% off Panerais. Are the Specialties Series different? Any other info on the 275s would be greatly appreciated, ie residuals, reliability...photos Thanks in advance. Rick.
