Read MoreThe Black Tie "vintage-inspiration" watch by Piaget is the paragon of a revivified classic. As Piaget emphasizes, it's not a square, nor is it round or rectangular. This watch's case is a unique shape that mirrors the designs of Piaget's 1960's timepieces. The original version of this exact wristwatch was most notably worn and, evidently, made popular by Andy Warhol....
Read MoreAs next year's Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie nears, we will be definitely seeing a myriad of interesting and innovative creations from all of Richemont's brands and the few independent brands that also attend this event. While there haven't been too many watch introductions thus far, Piaget has unveiled something spectacular: The Piaget Altiplano Chronograph, a.k.a. the world's thinnest....

Patek’s Calatrava, Lange’s Saxonia, Journe’s Chronometre Bleu, and Vacheron’s Patrimony all sell for around $20,000, are known for their superb quality, and are downright dapper.

Read MoreA short while ago, I visited with IWC to get a closer look at the watch I have just been dying to see, the Aquatimer Automatic from SIHH 2014. At a glimpse, this watch isn’t dissimilar to its predecessors, but when actually taking the time to sit down and further examine the watch, the modifications speedily become evident. As with most, if not all, professional diving watches, the case is constructed of super-durable stainless steel and, overall, is rugged in nature. To be honest, it wears a bit loudly on my wrist, but at 42 millimeters in diameter and 14 millimeter in height, it’s ideally sized for a modern dive watch, actually the smallest watch of the Aquatimer collection.
Read MoreToday, I would like to introduce the most recent creation by Cartier, the Calibre de Cartier Diver Watch. This watch is indeed amazing, but had a totally unexpected release earlier this year. As most know, Cartier has produced some of the upmost exceptional masterpieces of jewelry and horology in the world, but within the 167 years of Cartier’s existence, the Calibre de Cartier Diver is the only serious diver’s watch in the company’s timekeeping lineage.
