IWC Schaffhausen is focusing on its iconic Pilots’ Watch collections at this year’s SIHH watch salon in Geneva, and among the many new timepieces the brand is launching for 2016 is yet another ticking tribute to the storied poet/author/aviator Antoine de Saint-Exup¨¦ry: the IWC Big Pilot’s Watch Annual Calendar Edition “Le Petit Prince.”Like its predecessors, which have included a chronograph and a perpetual calendar, the new watch is a limited edition (just 250 pieces worldwide) and features a striking blue dial as well as visual references to the title character in Saint-Exup¨¦ry’s most famous work, Le Petit Prince, or The Little Prince. The Big Pilot’s Watch Annual Calendar Edition “Le Petit Prince” (Ref.

Hands-On: With The New Limited Edition Grand Seiko Hi-Beat GMT With Green Dial
Grand Seiko is truly a hidden gem of high horology. Praised by the most astute collectors in the world for its unwavering dedication to craftsmanship and precision, this new GMT is one of GS's most attractive packages to date, featuring a brand-new, completely in-house, high-beat GMT movement, gorgeous green dial, and fantastically finished multi-tiered case. Oh, and thanks to Seiko's brand-new boutique in NYC, they're easier to find than ever before. 2 OF 19 This 40mm watch features the same style case made famous in the 44GS seen here. The quality of this case can't be stressed enough, with razor-sharp beveling, even brushing, and mirror-like polishing. I mean, look at those lines. 3 OF 19 The high-beat movement caliber 9S86 is a brand new movement for Seiko, beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour, with a power reserve of 55 hours. It offers a daily variance of +5 to -3 seconds, though likely performance is even more precise than advertised. The oscillating

The Explorer II Enigma
I know this has been discussed before, but I thought it might be interesting to revisit.Of all the SS Sport Rollies out there, the Explorer II (and Explorer, but the focus of this thread is on the II), particularly the black dial, seems to be the least desirable, and hence has the lowest resale value. I bought my slightly used one from my AD at a significant discount from MSRP, and it's fairly common to get TT like discounts on these, which differs from all the other SS Sporties. We see Explorer II's languish in AD's cases and on our For Sale page, often being discounted several times before they sell or are pulled.The watch is essentially the same as the legacy GMT II's, minus the rotating bezel. It has a sleek and unique profile not seen on other non-Rolex watches, except the Invicta's Rolex-inspired models. It's comfort is among the best of Sports Rollies, and it has the added complication of the 24H hand.I'd like to see a discussion about TRFers thoughts on why the Explorer II'

Upmost thanks to TRF, you did good.
I just wanted to post a quick thank you to everyone who frequents this forum with regularity, without your wisdom I could not be as happy as am I today. (And if you¡¯re just here for the thanks skip to the last paragraph because I¡¯m going to rabble a bit first.)I¡¯ve owned one watch for a very long time, a Tag Heuer my dad bought for me on my 13th birthday (more on that later.)For a long time I thought ¡°good¡± watches were crazy expensive, shiny things that I would never be able to understand, but over time and lots of research I started to understand them for what they are.Ingenious works of technology that should be cherished and loved (and worn and used) as the tools that they are, not something to be bought and hidden away.The more time I¡¯ve spend looking at your posts the more I¡¯ve come to realise the these things are treasures to be worn and used, so after many other ¡®toy¡¯ watches (and I mean that affectionately, like the Tag Heuer Monaco I loved dearly) I decided to buy my first Ro
