A. Lange & Söhne: One More Off-centred Movement - FP

Sorry for the not-so-good quality photos. Micro-movement is indeed very interesting and I would like to add one more off-centred movement, which are in my current collection as well. It is made from Frederic Piguet Caliber 71. It also features a off-centred second at 5 o'clock on the dial. Very thin

Blancpain: Deviation from Traditional Blancpain Design

It seems to me that Blancpain is giving up their traditional "DNA" in their watch design. Now the new watches have no stepped bezel, replacing the 3-dimensional dial with open dial, newly shaped watch hands, chunky big size watch case (>43mm). Honestly apart from the logo, I can hardly find anything

A. Lange & Söhne: Quality of Bottom Plate and Keyless Works

Dear guys, I am thinking of buying the Saxonia Automatic (37mm)watch and add in my collection. I remember some years ago Walt Odets has commented that there is still room for improvement in terms of the finishing quality of the movement bottom plate and the keyless works.

I always wonder now the 5146 is using the same 324 instead of 315 movement, then howcome 5396/5135 are still charging 15% more provided they even don't have the power reserve function as found in 5146. Is it anything to do with the production cost of the dial and case?

Patek Philippe: Supply of 5396?

This model seems to be a more popular model than the 5146 and the supply looks very little. In Hong Kong I have not seen any 5396 in the display window of PP AD since the past 6 months. I have also been told that there is a long waiting list for this watch and many customers are eager to buy this, e

Chopard: It depends...

It depends on your preference and only you can make the final decision. The LUC movement is renowed for its movement finish and to me, it is a pity if you can't see and admire the movement. If this is the case, then you can forget about Fluerier RG. Limited edition watch is only desirable if there i
