Sotheby’s to Auction Rare Patek Philippes Owned by Henry Graves Family
In December 1999, Sotheby¡¯s made watch-auction history. The auction house sold the so-called Henry Graves Supercomplication ¡ª a pocketwatch originally commissioned from Patek Philippe by noted watch collector Henry Graves, Jr., and which featured 24 complications ¡ª for an astounding $11,002,500, still the world record for any timepiece at auction. Last week, Sotheby’s announced that it will hold a single-owner sale on June 14, 2012 in New York that will include more rare watches from the collections of Graves and his grandson, Reginald “Pete” H. Fullerton, Jr., a noted collector and connoisseur in his own right.The auction, called Watches from the Collection of the late Reginald H. Fullerton, Jr. and his Grandfather Henry Graves, Jr., will comprise a group of 13 pieces collected by Graves that have never before been published or appeared on the market, as well as a group of 42 wristwatches and an important Knibb Grande Sonnerie Long Case Clock, assembled by Fullerton

SevenFriday V-Series Watch
So it has finally happened: SevenFriday have released a new collection ¨C or series, as they like to call them ¨C?with the?SevenFriday V-Series. It is the newest addition to the family that previously contained the P- and M-Series. While its forerunners were all 47mm soft-edged squares, the case shape of the V-Series is totally different. Two left side protrusions, housing a simple-but-smart FSC (Fast Strap Change) system, change the look of this watch entirely. In the same way Star Wars got creative with the shaping of their lettered craft, this watch kind of looks like a V that has toppled to its right and just decided to stay there.Aside from the obvious shift in silhouette, the SevenFriday V-Series features a round specially hardened and anti-reflective treated domed mineral glass and a more traditionally shaped dial.

Another Omega as a giftdamaged dial.
Yesterday I received a gift from my dad`s old patient (my dad is a dentist too)...Omega Seamaster, manual vintage model, white dial...but the dial is damaged probably from the water...Now I have 2 possibilities-to find another dial, caliber 601, which in my country is almost impossible..or as an option I`m considering a laser treatment, it means to change the color of the dial- I will probably choose dark blue or silver grey, and to write the omega and seamaster in the dial, as it is now...I will post some pics tomorrow...of the whole watch or after my ad removes the dial...and after treatment I will post pics for sure...The movement is fantastic, so is the case-back ad other part of the watch...some scratches on the glass, but It can be easy polished...Any suggestion is welcomed.here is a googled pic...my Omega is very similar, the case is also silver, and it has all the numbers, from 1 to 12. No date.
