Roger Dubuis Introduces La Mon¨¦gasque Collection, We Go Hands-On
Earlier this month, Swiss manufacturer Roger Dubuis introduced their entirely new La Mon¨¦gasque line of watches within the historic Monte Carlo district of Monaco. The venue served as the inspiration for the young brand, who refers to their newest creations as "an ode to gaming, glamour and the Riviera." In their attempt to capture this spirit, they've built no less than eight models to comprise the La Mon¨¦gasque collection. We were there, and we've got the skinny on the best of the new releases.?Roger Dubuis (first seen here) has managed to scale their manufacturing capabilities to near 100% since their inception in 1995. Production is handled entirely within the walls of their Geneva facilities, where every watch that comes out the door carries the coveted Geneva Seal. For the La Mon¨¦gasque collection, new calibers were designed and built, meant to embody the next generation of manufacturing abilities for the marque. One in particular caught my eye during the release event, the RD540

New here Hi everybody!
HI!!!!My name is Ryan and I like Rolex. Sounds like a confession doesn't it? :)I guess I should introduce myself.I'm a college graduate that is applying to serve with Habitat for Humanity's AmeriCorps program for a year. I've always been passionate bout Habitat for Humanity and this is a way to give back.I got "in to watches" sort of by accident. My grandfather wore a TT DJ for many years and when he passed, my dad got it. My dad wears it occasionally to church. So that's how I heard of Rolex and started researching the brand and its history.Despite being a member of more than one watch forum however, I don't consider myself a WIS. A watch is a tool, pure and simple. But there is nothing wrong with having a really cool tool. :) I don't see myself having a big collection, just one really nice watch will do me just fine. I'm young, so buying isn't on my mind yet. Paying off my college education is. But when that time comes I'm interested in GMTs and Subs. Aren't we all?One more item of n

Stauer Graves
I wore my Stauer Graves watch for the past few days. This is a reproduction of a watch custom made for a collector (Graves) back in 1933. At the time, this was the most expensive watch made. I would imagine that the $99 reproduction was not of the same quality as the original. Considering the price, I was realistic in my expectations and was not disappointed. For the price, I could have gotten a Miyota powered automatic, but the Chinese movement for the same price provided a few extra complications. There are four sub-dials; month, date, day of week and 24-hour indicator. The case was a little on the small side for my taste, but as I said, it is a 1933 design. The extended lugs do make it seem a little larger. The month and day of week are fairly easy to read, but the date and 24-hour dials are difficult. However, AM/PM is easy enough to distinguish. The three exterior buttons will advance the day, month and day of week making setting the watch that much easier. I wore the watch to a p

Hamilton Automatic K-202 value?
Hello,I am new to all of this and a have a watch that my grandfather owned. I was wondering if you all can help me with a value on this watch. It is a 1956 (I believe) 14k Hamilton Automatic K-202 with a serial number of L779428 and another number on the cover is 661. The stem is recessed and both the Hamilton and Automatic printing on the face curve with the dial.I hope this is enough information to get started.Thanks,Dave
