i remember reading an article, i think maybe watchtime, that the royal oak is one of the few watches that actually costs quite a bit to manufacture, considering all of the detailing work and finishing. Not sure how accurate that article was, but i'd believe it considering how many brands put out generic looking steel watches that still cost 5k.

As a RO hater, I still must admit the bracelet is damn cool.

Just make sure with a vintage piece, it's in English if thats what you want. The pic there is French (which is kinda cool too if you ask me)

French would not be good!!

You said vintage...is the the Master Calendar no longer in production?

I just received my brand new Tommy Hilfiger watch which I fancy a lot. I like the feeling of breaking in the new leather straps as always.

What do you think? It's nothing limited, or high-end or luxurious but it will do a pretty god job for a day watch just for a change.

Does JLC even "go" to Baselworld? I thought they release their items at SIHH. I honestly don't know.
