[WIanthetCablet]

For now, we can't tell you any more than that, sorry. But in just a few hours the full story will be right here. We seriously can't wait. (Friendly reminder: those with the HODINKEE App installed on their mobile phones billig longines ure will get the fastest notifications of new products – and are able to purchase in-app quickly.)This lecture will share the results of this ongoing research, while shedding light on the major actors involved in the watch's creation, among whom are Italian agent Carlo de Marchi, designer Gérald Genta, and former CEO of Audemars Piguet Georges Golay. It will also pay tribute to the many people and companies that contributed to the timepiece's challenging development: case-maker Favre-Perret, movement-maker LeCoultre & Cie, bracelet-maker Gay Frères, and famous dial-maker Stern Frères.Cabriolet (or concealment) watches are a whole genre that I spend a lot of time thinking about. It all started a few years ago when I spotted a Patek Philippe ref. 5099 Gondolo Cabriolet at an auction preview. A pink and white gold square-shaped concealed wristwatch that wasn't getting much attention. But I was fascinated. Was this a watch or a teeny tiny compact mirror?


This week's selection of watches starts with two heavyweights, absolute grails for many collectors. One is a Rolex, a very rare kind of Explorer with replica tassen a single line on the dial that changes everything. The other is an oversized Patek Philippe Calatrava with a double signature. You will also find some less high-profile watches, from a Superman LeJour (yes, that is the actual name of this diver) to a great chronograph from Mathey Tissot. This is your Bring A Loupe for August 12, 2016.The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Annual Calendar will be available in white and pink gold, with both retailing for €37,500 (approximately $39,915 at time of publishing). Official pricing in U.S. Dollars will not be set until after SIHH.Once again, a big thank you to Olympian Curtis McDowald for joining us for this episode of Talking Watches!

The Paris-based brand's introduction of its distinctive square-shaped BR-01 line in 2005 has made the company's creations nearly ubiquitous on the shelves of watch retailers and easily identifiable on the wrists of watch collectors around the world.


They came out 12 months apart, both with rectangular reversible cases, and both constructed by Spécialités Horlogères SA. But different fates awaited the Reverso and the Tank Basculante. One spawned hundreds of models and celebrated its 85th anniversary fake cartier tank americaine watches earlier this year. The other would be one of hundreds that make up a larger collection, and would seldom be seen again. But it would be wrong to compare these two models on their success. We got our hands on a 1990s model to explain why.Furthermore the watch is powered by the reliable caliber 2121 automatic movement, which measures just 3.05mm thick and is the same exact movement that can be found in the original Royal Oak from 1972. So there's history inside and out with this piece.By applying a strategy of making a watch for their existing customers, Leica was able to apply some short-hand, some insider lingo, to the idea of this brand translation. Given that this is a very low production pair of models that will only be available at a handful of Leica boutiques around the world – Los Angeles is your only option in North America – it makes sense that Leica would "preach to the choir" when it comes to telling the story of (aka branding) their new watch.
