Hublot Watch & Auction For Boxing Legends
I was with Hublot in Las Vegas for a very atypical watch event. A merging of two extremely different worlds coming together for fun, publicity, and the pursuit of mutual goals. The rowdy and often dramatic world of professional boxing has little in common with the clean lines and sober attitudes you'll find in the luxury world. The heroes of watch making are executives, designers, creative minds, and marketers. They celebrate men and women of greatness from afar, and from a public perspective the luxury and watch business has a clean and stately face.Boxing is about fighting and the clashing of personalities to evoke excitement over the next big event. It is a hard and fast life for the stars, who often fade once the glory has worn off. Only a handful move on to make something of themselves in alternative businesses once they retire from boxing. Like the champions of many sports, life after competition is usually not very interesting. Especially those who haven't handled their finances

Found: A Breguet Pocket Watch, A Renoir, And The Mystery Of One Of The Greatest Breguet Collectors
Seeking shelter and distraction on a windy Sunday, some friends and I purchased tickets to the National Gallery in London to see the highly recommended "Delacroix and the Rise of Modern Art" exhibition. When in doubt, spending a few hours in the company of Matisse, Kandinsky, and Gaugin is never time wasted. 1 OF 8 Still shivering from the cold, we made our way down the stone steps of the Museum. Somewhat ironically, it was not Delacroix whom I wanted to see, but Renoir. His version of Delacroix’s The Jewish Wedding In Morocco had recently popped up during my research on the world’s first perpetual calendar wristwatch, a Breguet. Both had been purchased by Mr. Jean Dollfus. Or so I thought. 2 OF 8 The "Dollfus Perpetual Calendar," the world's first perpetual calendar wristwatch. That name was written in ink inside Breguet’s archives next to the sale of said Breguet no. 2516 in 1932. And it was printed, this time in

Hamilton Spur sold on the Swamp
This Hamilton Spur sold on the Swamp today for just over $2,000 (I didn't bid on it):Seller Swamp photoI don't see many sales of the Spur. So I'm not that familiar with historic prices. But it seemed a little low to me. I always thought most original Spurs sold in the $2,500-5,000 range?Mark S.

Guess what I found in an old box?
Looking through old boxes for something to repair/tinker with, I came across these...How odd as I don't wear cuff links. Maybe I'll flip 'em.

How difficult is it to get a lady Datejust in Sydney?
I¡¯ve done a search but I haven¡¯t found any relevant information. I want to get a 28mm TT Datejust, possibly with diamonds on the dial. I want to buy new as I¡¯m planning to have this one and only watch for many years to come.It¡¯s difficult for me to get to the CBD but I do live in Sydney. I have been planning on making a day trip to the few ADs in Sydney, but I thought I should get some advice on what to expect with regards to stock levels before getting my hopes up. Additionally, I have family in Hong Kong, and my parents will be going there later this month. As far as I know the prices aren¡¯t so different especially with our exchange rate- but if it¡¯s way easier to get what I want over there I¡¯m tempted to just ask my parents look into it for me (obviously I would prefer to physically buy it myself but I should take this opportunity if it¡¯s really difficult to get what I want here). Thanks!
