James. 4 Posted March 19, 2016 Two hugely surprising watch from basel... I never thought id want a Chanel watch. Then this happened... I've also always believed that if you're going to use a battery powered object to tell the time you may as well be your phone. But again...wtf WANT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klt11 1 Posted March 19, 2016 Stole my breath this year.. I don't know why I have a thing for blue watches.. I have a bigger thing for Patek Blue watches.. still waiting for a good blue PP rep though.. it's not happening.. Weirdly, this is my least favourite of Pateks offerings. The blue is nice but the dial is cluttered and it is far from elegant, but not very Patek! DC I find this being one of my favourite Pateks, I find that a lot of them are very simple and elegant and that's not my thing, they need to rep this even if I'm the only one buying Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted March 19, 2016 What they really need to rep from the new line up is this.... I wasn't sure about the new 5170 dial layout when the black dial version was released, and similarly this rose gold version with black dial doesn't quite work for me, but with white dial it is just a dream!! Perhaps this new release will encourage rep factories to finally do a proper job of the 5170 with an ST19 movement :wub: DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is absolutely gorgeous and really needs a decent rep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxindebox 465 Posted March 19, 2016 I think this looks amazing. Won't ever be repped though... :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piccolo 674 Posted March 19, 2016 Two hugely surprising watch from basel... I never thought id want a Chanel watch. Then this happened... I'm with you on that - I really like that date aperture surround. Dial finish look stunning as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FL13 511 Posted March 21, 2016 That Bulova.... they killed it with that Lug style.... Other than that... it's not half bad for a quartz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatarms 7,777 Posted March 21, 2016 A quartz with a see thru caseback seems a little strange to me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusty peters 0 Posted March 21, 2016 A quartz with a see thru caseback seems a little strange to me... But...it is pretty nice looking for a quartz. Bulova is doing a lot of things correctly lately. I was afraid they would go the Movado route and die a slow shameful death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cleebeauregard 2 Posted March 21, 2016 Just watched the hublots presentation on YouTube. The "tooty frooty" collection looks more like an ice watch collection that stared in pimp my ride... Ridiculous. For those interested WARNING: Above link may induce vomiting! LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DC_ 218 Posted March 22, 2016 Lovely video from Patek Philippe on the watch.. This might just change your mind DC and you can see it a bit with more open mind :P The case is beautiful, love the stepped lugs reminiscent of the 5970/5270, but still not a fan of the dial, can't put my finger on it but it's not doing it for me still!

NFleischer 4,355 Posted March 22, 2016 Some very cool pieces, I like that G-P , seems like they could make a good rep of it. I don't like that white Chanel, never been much of a fan of Regulateur watches myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
