Watches - another OCD problem
-
Lots of "luxury sport watches" coming out these days, as everyone else already noticed. I find those very compelling and I happen to have a couple coming my way in the next couple months (hopefully).
The just announced Lang & Heyne Hektor is a cool variation, although maybe overpriced given the hand wound movement…

On the way to theatre wearing Tudor Pelagos and Nigel Cabourn work shirt -
That Pelagos is damn cool, @Moty
How do you like it? -
I love it, really. This is my third piece, had the first gen. in black, when blue came it was instant love, than I had a watches-off period and 2,5 yrs ago it came back and I bought these and never had on my mind sale of them. They are from technical and design point of view for me absolutely perfect
-
Yeah, the blue is where it's at in my opinion, @Moty. All of the watch-obsessed folk on Hodinkee/other watch forums always talk about getting one of these and never quite do so. From what I understand, these watches very well and can take a beating. Plus, the design is simply perfect and, again, that blue is beautiful. If I were to buy a modern day diver, I'd have to say that it would be a blue Pelagos.

So true, it is such an universal watch, you can wear with jeans, suit or swimsuit
-
And lumi is a blast

Blancpain have come up with a titanium version of the Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe. Looks nice.
More at Monochrome.

If it´s blue it´ll be must-have for me
-
I just can't help but feel the Bathyscaphe to be a bridesmaid to the original models, though there are many fine examples, especially that one.
-
The Bathyscaphe's hands remind me of the Sinn U1's.
More refined but totally agree.

Just a personal quirk of mine, but I'm always put off when the hands are different widths like that.

Want a green Nautilus? Loupe This are currently auctioning one, and the price has (at the time of writing) hit $332,000, with five days to go.

The Nautilus is objectively a nice watch, though it's never really done it for me, but I remain to be convinced that it's worth nearly $300K over list. Several people, who are considerably richer than me, disagree.
-
There are tens of thousands of people in the world for whom that price tag has the same meaning as a venti latte has for us. Good for them. Paying $300k over list is how they spread their money around.
I do wonder, along with many others, what are the watches that will prove later to have been great purchases now.
