SIHH Preview: Ralph Lauren Slim Classique Collection
For Ralph Lauren, the 1920’s elegance and daring spirit of optimism have long been a source of inspiration. For 2012, Ralph Lauren presents two new interpretations of his Art Deco Slim Classique design featuring thin silhouettes, elegant guilloch¨¦ engraving and masterful gem setting.

ETA and the future
Well, now that ETA can start to scale back on the sale of their movements what does everyone think is going to happen to the watch industry?
