Watch from my year of birth - part 2 - Monochrome Watches
More about my quest for a watch from my year of birth. A few days ago i already blogged about this quest, now the story continues. I’m considering (a reasonably priced) GMT Master 1675 or Submariner no-date ref. 5512 or 5513. But there are of course other options. Heuer and Omega also had some incredibly nice watches in that time. And although i’ve searched the internet, i’m sure there are many more nice watches from that time, that i haven’t stumbled across yet. So i’m open to suggestions. Mostly i prefer chronographs, divewatches and GMT’s, so toolwatches from the past. I’m a Heuer fan, but i just can’t think of many vintage Heuers that would meet my requirements in this case. Maybe a vintage Heuer Monaco would do, but somehow i would feel uncomfortable wearing such a watch on a daily basis. Most other Autavia models would only be less interesting as the one i already have and the vintage Carrera or Camaro are less appealing to me. Th

Introducing: The Roger Dubuis Excalibur Grande Complication
Roger Dubuis celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, a milestone that calls for a look back at its remarkable journey. While the brand's history may not be long, it is undeniably rich and eventful. Today, however, the focus is on the latest revelation at Watches and Wonders Geneva: the Excalibur Grande Complication.This new timepiece is the second of its kind in Roger Dubuis' portfolio. The first debuted in 2009, shortly after the brand joined the Richemont Group, featuring an in-house grand complication calibre that combined an instantaneous in-line perpetual calendar, a minute repeater, a flying tourbillon, a moon phase display, a dual-time function, and dual micro-rotors. The latest iteration retains the signature Excalibur case and core complications – perpetual calendar, minute repeater, and tourbillon – while introducing a few changes, and the watch comes just as powerful, even though, strictly speaking, it isn’t a grande complication (which traditionally mea

Indeed, LVMH, the world's largest luxury conglomerate, officially signed on as a Global Partner of Formula 1 in a groundbreaking 10-year deal, with what was certainly one of the most important sports sponsorship deals ever.

Looking more closely, we knew already that the role of official timekeeper of F1, which?had been in the hands of since 2013, was about to stop,?too.
