I could not find the name of this new Laco http://www.nalumar.com/porsche-design-911-turbo-replica-uk.html watch. Perhaps if I spoke German that would be possible or I am just too lazy to write to Roger Ruegger, from who excellent (German) website I found the picture. No doubt I will discover it soon enough and update this article, I hope. Roger, like myself is a great lover of diving watches, and…

Whenever I get a free minute anywhere I happen to be, I try to make time to visit those under the radar watch shops. I'm not talking about the Tourneaus of the world - more like those tiny vintage camera and watch shops that sit on the eighth floor of a church in the Ginza district of Tokyo. While in San Francisco, I had the pleasure of visiting the offices of vintage omega Aqua Terra replica…

Together with the new Cellini collection and the http://www.nalumar.com/porsche-design-911-turbo-replica-uk.html, the Oyster Perpetual Formula 1 Chronograph with a red and blue ceramic bezel is the other big Tag heuer novelty from Baselworld 2014.

Many fans of the so-called Pepsi version of the tag heuer replica…

If you would have asked me before I visited SIHH 2010 what brand would have impressed me the most, I don't think that replica U-Boat watches uk would have been one of my top choices. The maker of high-end watches usually focuses on the jewelry side of watch making more than the complex mechanical side. At least it used to be that way. Part of their current and future goals is to assert themselves as a true…

The movement inside (and take a deep breath now) is the completely in-house manufactured CH 28-520 IRM QA 24. That translated into http://www.nalumar.com/panerai-replica-uk.html means that the movement comprises a flyback chronograph, an annual calendar, a power-reserve indication (for what the brand notes as anything between 45 and 55 hours, likely depending on for how long the chronograph is in operation), and…

Names, design influences and physical attributes all intrigue me when I look at a new timepiece and this latest watch from http://www.speedroc.com/replica-u-boat-watches.html proves to be no exception. Firstly, there is the reference to watches uk, the year my wife was born, albeit I am sure she won’t appreciate my broadcasting this fact. It was also the year that Apollo 11 landed on the moon, the first manned… Continue

Last year replica breitling bentley flying b announced a licensing agreement with Taito Japan to bring the world bentley themed wrist watches. I wasn't allowed to show images of the actual watches, but now I can. Few people are ever going to see these watches, but they are worth knowing about - at least from a watch trivia standpoint. Would I wear them? Yes actually. But then again I am the type of guy… Continue

I’ve covered lots of http://www.speedroc.com/replica-omega-speedmaster-broad-arrow-gmt.html — the brand’s most popular families — in my series of Fratello Friday columns on Omega, but let’s not forget about the Constellation. Although the current Constellation is popular mostly in Asia, past models were considered to be the brand’s flagships just about everywhere. This week’s article reveals…

Nice watch, but you can't buy it. No one can. http://www.speedroc.com/replica-franck-muller-watches.html paid a lot of money to make this watch, and they are keeping it for themselves. I guess they enjoy it too much to part with it? Maybe. More likely, the special March Chagall ceiling watch will be on permanent exhibition, traveling around to show off VC's stuff. For the last few years, since 2007,…

It was perhaps a few years ago that I noticed my fellow watch lovers speaking more and more about replica U-Boat watches uk watches. It got me quite curious, because before that the brand had one main image - baby Breitling. My own experience with Franck muller timepieces is limited, and for good reason - they aren't officially sold in the United States. I am not really sure why that is, but it is likely a…

breitling Chronomat 41 replica watches are a lot like classic American Muscle cars -

expect for the American part that is. They are big, made with lots of metal, have cool designs on them, and make you feel good being around them. At the same time, they aren't very practical, don't always have what they look like they should under their hoods, and aren't the most comfortable machines to use on a…

A few months ago, I had a couple of loan watches residing on my desk. They had been sent for evaluation by two manufacturers and my intention was to write about them in due

course. Over a number of weeks, I would wear each watch for a few days and record my comments to my trusty red notebook. To fully appreciate a watch, there is no substitute for

extended acquaintance or, as some bloggers like to say, “getting hands-on”.I decided to take the watches on vacation and take a few…
