Borsheims is known for its legendary Borsheims Price and its Signature Service to customers. The Borsheims Price is a link result of the store's incredible buying link power. With low overhead and a vast inventory, Borsheims is link able to pass savings along to customers – a price known as the Borsheims Price.
I also think link it is very daring that OMEGA sponsors GoodPlanet while they could have chosen for sponsoring the link x-th Formula 1 or LeMans link team or other similar activity that probably would have gained them much more exposure to watch consumers.
Even RJ owns one (in link the golden finish, of course) which he link rocks from time to time! I must admit, that other than having seen the golden PSR on RJ’s wrist, I had not previously had any experience with link these watches.
This is what sets the Mirage apart because link this is what sets watchmaking apart. Free from the need to truly consider function, watches today link are thought of as jewelry more than ever. A luxury. But if consideration of their original function is completely tossed aside, they're not watches at all. Design link for its own sake can be beautiful, but it's not watchmaking.
What we have is a link large monopusher chronograph inside the link large, 46mm-plus Big Pilot case with a Le Petit Prince-inspired blue dial and distinct vintage-inspired Arabic numerals. The link sub-registers are aligned in a vertical configuration and there is a date window at three o'clock.
With a 21mm width between the lugs link and a taper to 16mm at the clasp, once you have it sized, the bracelet feels great and is a good link match for the proportions and weight link of the case. From the case to the bracelet, the only way to make a better-wearing example would be to go for titanium and fit some sort of active micro-adjust into the clasp. You have my support for both, especially if the titanium lent itself to a somewhat more modern or tactical expression of the Spirit design language.
Another Serpenti for yours truly. How… predictable? I like to call it fiercely loyal. Whatever you may think of my gem-set, coil-shaped mania, it's a straight-up bonafide obsession. I think about Serpenti most days. I link can spend whole afternoons link scrolling through pictures of vintage enamel Serpentis and carved coral-colored Serpentis, Serpentis with link emeralds for eyes, or teeny tiny diamond-set tourbillon movements.
Given the complexity of the link system, the size of the watch link starts to seem, not Brobdignagian, but merely reasonable. As Coudray has said, the idea is to not just produce something which is link clever mechanically, but to use ingenuity and mechanics in the service of making something with as much visual razzle-dazzle as possible.
Nacho has opted for a slightly more link rugged companion in the RZE Resolute in Desert Tan. With a link 100m water link resistance rating, a screw-down crown, and a case made of hard-coated titanium, it's a perfect watch for nearly any adventure.
I think this 36mm Royal Oak, lot 38, with a bloodstone dial link is the absolute link sleeper hit of the entire auction. I'd never seen a Royal Oak with a bloodstone dial, also known as jasper, and it appears there's a good link reason why. Apparently only five examples of the 36mm ref. 14701BC with a bloodstone/jasper dial were produced in the early 1990s.
