There link was a jumping hour at Phillips New York and a steel triple calendar at Christie's Geneva. link You can tell simply by the virtue that each season there's only one or two vintage Breguets that come up that they're quite rare. I think they're really important watches that still deserve a little more link recognition."

The main suspect here was the use of "dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane" more commonly referred to as 'DDT' throughout the sixties and seventies. Runoff from the insecticide's link agricultural applications contaminated the link waterways link where the eagles hunted for fish. Once eating these tainted fish the residual chemicals prevented the birds from being able to produce strong eggshells resulting in a precipitous decline in the hatching of young eagles.

The last days of the year are upon us and link the auction season is just about to wrap up with the New York sales. Youve already heard about the cover lots so I thought wed shed some light on a handful of outliers deserving of link your attention. Since we havent had link a thematic roundup lately I thought wed give one a go. The name of the game this week is old and gold.

That's right in the 24 years since link the launch of the Overseas chronograph the brand has never made the obvious choice. Even more mind-boggling Vacheron released a "reverse panda" black with white link subdials all the way back in 2018 just two years after the redesign of the Overseas lineup but waited five more years to fully lean into the obvious and sporty link design natural to the sporty Overseas. Well the wait is over and all is right in the world.

And with the link slow release of new Gérald Genta watches from LVMH it makes a good bit of sense for the link conglomerate to support the revival and experimentation of the Daniel Roth name especially as the level link of interest and collector cachet of the original Roth pieces has grown substantially in the past few years.

Now let's say you're in the market to make a statement but one of a different sort. If that last GMT was link a red drop-top Corniche that's parked right outside this one is more along the lines of a silver DB5 tucked away in an underground garage that you didn't know existed. We're taking a moment to go off the wrist and into the pocket which I have a feeling you'll get a kick out of. Now that you've got the picture let's take a moment to ogle link the lines link of that aforementioned DB5.

The impracticality of link sidereal time aside which you can read on the left side of the dial just wearing it as you go about your day you can almost forget you're wearing a close-to-million-dollar watch with 18 functions in a 758-part 68-jewel manually wound movement link a feat in itself. Each function is set solely by the crown just like a more simple tool watch no recessed pushers needed. And if link you want even more of a "tool watch feel" each watch comes with a matching metal bracelet.

When you throw all these factors link together the tropical dial nicely faded bezel overall link great condition and great use of color on the link dial you have one hell of a watch. Check out all the details here!

Now of course his is not a vintage model. He wears a GMT-Master II 16710 link with the red and blue link bezel on an Oyster bracelet. Its the last reference before the Crown redesigned the entire GMT line and halted production of Pepsi models for more than half link a decade.
