So here is an overview of Van Cleef and Arpels, I thought I would pay the bling first, next post will be for Armin Strom, something for the engineering appreciators. Not much to say other than that which doesn't glitter here is probably solid gold

For those of us OBSESSED with watches, this week is basically a holiday. The new releases from many brands were unveiled last night at Watches and Wonders. Some of the major highlights: Rolex: -New “Albino” Daytona -Two-Toned OP celebrating 100 years of the Oyster case -New limited edition celebration dial OP -New Yacht-Master II -DISCONTINUED the Pepsi GMT 😢 Vacheron: -New Overseas Dual Time model to celebrate 30 years of the Overseas Nomos: -White Dial Worldtimer 🤩 🤩 🤩 Tudor: -New blue dial Black Bay 54 -New model called the Monarch to celebrate 100 years of the company -New bracelet for BB GMT -New sizes and colors for the Tudor Royal (what do you think @Chad Smith?) Overall, not too exciting from the main brands. Although, those Vacheron and Nomos are gorgeous!! What’s your favorite??

W&W starts tomorrow and some brands are already announcing new watches. I've had a Nomos World Timer on my radar for awhile, but this white dial is the version I was hoping for. Placed tbe pre-order. ETA 4 months.

Just a couple of watches the Jay Z took from his personnel collection for a GQ shoot recently. I like the Patek Philippe 5004R, not sure on the gold colouring though.

Anyone else just love a themed watch? I agree watchs a are great to make a statement for how you hold yourself. But I also belive they are a glimpse into your soul. A watch can look sharp but bring in your hobbies and likes. Heres a few theamed watch I would love to get and of.
