Greubel Forsey Invention Piece 2
Greubel Forsey indulges in variations on their unique horological themes. These variations are the Invention Pieces. In 2007, IP1 celebrated the Double Tourbillon 30¡ã, and in 2009 IP3 paid homage to the Tourbillon 24 Secondes. This year tribute is paid to the Quadruple Tourbillon in the form of the IP2, recasting the original’s innovative mechanism in a completely new movement. The IP2 movement is comprised of 594 components housed in a 43.5 mm diameter asymmetrical case. Two double tourbillons are presented head-to-tail, allowing the mechanisms to be appreciated from all angles through front and back sapphire crystals and a lateral window. The two double tourbillon systems are coupled via a spherical differential in the center of the timepiece. Hours and minutes are indicated by a red triangle and a rotating disk on a sub-dial at 5 o¡¯clock, which conceals the triple coaxial mainspring barrels. Small seconds are visible at 10 o¡¯clock and the 56-hour power reserve is displayed at

Breitling Navitimer 01 Limited Edition Watch
There is really no different on this Navitimer other templates that do not have the calibre 01 movement. Although the movement is the certified COSC chronometer. The watch is a limited edition (of 2000 pieces) and it is supposed to be a little larger than standard Navitimer in a case of 43 mm wide. The watch is available in 18 k pink gold or steel. Case is nicely polished and has everything you expect in a Navitimer in terms of function and quality.

Do you REALLY like the Rolex crown symbol?
Hi all I have always been ambiguous about the Rolex crown. Don't get me wrong; I get excited by seeing it on a display, or on a watch box, etc, but in itself sometimes feel it is perhaps a little old fashioned. I notice that they haven't tried to update the graphic, although that's probably a good thing, because I also very much like the font they continue to use for the ROLEX wording.My thoughts were focused on the issue while recently out shopping with my wife: whilst waitingaround the womens' clothes part of a department store I noticed a large ad for Triumph underwear and it has a very similar logo!(see link) triumph/global/#/index.htmlI realise Rolex need never (and will never) change the logo, but do you actually like it?- Solex

Decoding Longines reference numbers
Longines watches have references numbers of the following form Lv.w.x.y.z, for example L2.715.4.71.3. Knowing a bit about these references numbers and what they mean can help in deciphering differences between watches or making an educated guess about an unseen watch.v = category/class???w = modelx = case materialy = dialz = bracelet/strapSome examples to start showing how we can put it all together would be good. Lets start with a smallish line, the HydroConquest range.L3.644.4.56.2
