WHY THIS WATCH

A very interesting Tiffany & Co watch. At first glance it appears the watch doesn't have a crown on the case. However, this watch is a "Reverso", and allows you to unhinge the case from the base, revealing 2 crowns, 1 for the GMT and 1 for the local time. 

This watch has a very interesting case shape and diameter. This is the closest to a UniSex watch you can get. While it measures 34mm edge to edge, since it's not a circle it fits more like a 36-37mm watch, making it perfect for most wrists. The watch comes on it's original Tiffany strap, buckle and Tiffany "Coffin" box. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

This is a one owner watch that was worn very sparingly. The case is in excellent condition with only minor wear, around 90%. The original tiffany strap is also in excellent condition around 85-90%.

Comes with an original tiffany tang buckle and original tiffany coffin box. This is a quartz watch that has received a fresh battery change and running without issues.

WHY THIS WATCH

Founded in 1853, Tissot of LeLocle is actually a company that has deep roots in Swiss watchmaking. The Seastar first showed up in the 1954 Tissot Catalog. The watch was advertised as a water-resistant model, something that was not yet a mainstay in watchmaking. While Rolex and Blancpain were coming out with bigger and thicker watches with rotating bezels, Tissot decided to keep it simple. This watch is so simple an elegant, and yet there are some cool details here, like the sector dial and interesting bracelet. The watch is 35mm, and wears more like 36mm watch. The crystal has a beautiful curve to it, and showcases a very nicely aged dial. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is 35mm and comes on the original Tissot bracelet. 783-1 movement makes this watch likely from the mid-late 1960s. The watch is in amazing shape for a watch for a watch this age, with some wear on the sides of the cases. The watch is running and setting correctly. Please note, we don't guarantee accuracy on vintage watches, and recommend a full service. Original Tissot bracelet shows only minimal stretch. No box or papers.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Sinn 156 was the child of Helmut Sinn, the founder of Sinn watch company. His vision was to design a pilot's chronograph similar to the legendary Heuer Bund ref. 1550SG, Leonidas Chronograph, and Zenith A. Careilli. In terms of the movement he chose the Lemania 5100 chronograph movement, a touch as nails alternative to the Valjoux 7750, with a very useful central minutes chronograph complication. This version is the 2nd generation, likely from the late 80's early 90's. This piece is the most desirable in our opinion, as it retains some beautiful Tritium lume points, and comes with the now rare NSA roller bracelet. The deployment on this bracelet rolls out to with changes to wrist size, a kind of automatic micro-adjust. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is 2nd gen from late 80's early 90's. Original tritium dial is showing gorgeous lume points, which have aged to a dark custard. Case is in vintage condition with wear consistent with age. Lemania 5100 movement has been oiled and clean, and is running strong with everything resetting to zero. NSA roller band has enough links for a 6.5 inch wrist. No box or papers.

WHY THIS WATCH

Don't let the futuristic design fool you, Zenith's Defy lineup actually started all the way back in 1969, when Zenith introduced a lineup of chunky, rugged watches, with futuristic designs. The Defy line of the 70's was the high-tech option of the time.

The Defy line is characterized by hard corners and angles, and this Defy Extreme Chronograph is no exception. Take a look at the pictures of the side of the case and you'll get a huge does of B2 bomber design. The case runs at 45mm in diameter and 15.5mm thick. And yet...it fits! This is due to the short lugs and full titanium case. On the rubber strap, this is the perfect summer watch. The tinted sapphire crystal gives you a view of the skeletonized Zenith Cal. 9004.

Let's get to the meat of this watch, which is the stunning and innovative El-Primero Calibre 9004, which shows elapsed time up to 1/100th of a second. The central chronograph hand moves around the dial lightening fast, and is really fun to watch. Zenith achieved this by adding a second gear train that vibrates at 360,000 vph. 

Using this watch, you notice it's very interesting functionally. The movement actually has two separate power reserves, one for the time (50 Hours) and one for the chronograph (50 min). These two power reserves are wound separately. Counterclockwise for the hours/minutes and clockwise for the chronograph. The chronograph power reserve is displayed at 12. Since the chronograph runs for 50 minutes after winding, there is no hours elapsed sub-counter. 

Finally let's talk value. This watch retails for $18,000. Compare this to other 100th of second chronographs like the Mont Blanc Timewalker (Retail $67,000), FP Journe (Retail $45,000), or the Tag Mikrograph (Retail $50,000). You're really getting a lot for the money here, not just movement wise, but also, the titanium bracelet, velcro strap, and rubber straps are a joy to use and behold, especially with Zenith's quick change strap system.

WHY THIS WATCH

Zenith was born 150 years ago, in Le Locle, a small town tucked away between the Neuchâtel mountains in Switzerland. Over the century and a half since it's founding, Zenith has produced countless innovations in watchmaking. It's most famous innovation was the El Primero movement, which was one of the first automatic chronograph movements. The El Primero is still considered one of the finest chronograph movements made. 

This watch is loosely based on the Captain model, a top of the line dress watch first released in 1957. Early Pie-Pan Zenith Captains are truly beautiful pieces that are very sought after by vintage collectors. 

This watch is powered by the aforementioned El Primero movement, a top of a line chronograph movement that is still my favorite automatic movement. My favorite thing about the El Primero is the feedback you get when engaging the pushers. It's this crisp feeling, which somehow evokes the feeling you get peeling the sticker off on an Apple product for the first time (Weird, I know!). For this particular model, the date wheel was moved to the 6 position, which I think feels way more in place than the traditional position at 4:30. 

Honestly though, there are a ton of El Primeros out there, so I'll get into what makes this one stand out from the pack. In the flesh, the dial on this watch looks completely different than in the photographs. In the photos, the watch dial looks pretty flat and lifeless, but in real life, this dial feels warm and alive due to the Rose Gold indices and hands. The color on these indices is really something special and what makes this watch stand out, along with the fit which I'll get into in a minute. The sapphire crystal is slightly curved, accentuating the softness of the dial. 

This watch is 42mm in diameter. I never considered this watch an option for me as I have smaller wrists, but it really does fit perfectly on my wrist, and thats due to a few things. First at 12.3mm, the watch is thin for a chronograph. Second, the case architecture, including the downward sloping lugs, and flat pushers was designed for a more comfortable, dressy fit. Finally, I think it was a smart decision to make this a 22mm lug width case, as I feel a beefier strap gives you more support, and somehow makes the watch feel smaller than it is. This is a chronograph devoid of any clunkiness whatsoever.

Value is something that is a consistent theme for Zenith watches. At $8,300 USD retail, you're getting a thin, elegantly shaped and balanced chronograph, with stunning dial and a top of the line in house chronograph that can easily be dressed up or down with the change of a strap. Speaking of straps, I'll also mention the strap on this watch is phenomenal. It's a gator strap with a rubber lining on the inside, so you don't have to worry about sweat stains ruining your gator.  

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is Like New - was purchased New in 2021 and was only tried on, but never worn. It comes with the Outer Box, Inner Box and Manuals. No warranty card. Comes on the original OEM Zenith Gator strap lined with Rubber on the inside, alongside a tang OEM zenith buckle.

WHY THIS WATCH

Zenith celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the El Primero, one of the greatest chronograph movements ever made, with this special 18k Gold Revival of the original Gold El Primero Chronograph, the G381 released in the sixties. This watch has been released exclusively through horological media platform, HODINKEE. Only 50 examples were made and sold. 

With this watch, Zenith attempted to make the revival as close to the original G381 as possible. Clocking in 38mm, it's true to the original diameter and gives the perfect fit for a revival. This watch has a Panda White Dial, and unlike it's steel counterpart, this watch has Non-Overlapping sub-registers, which was characteristics of the original gold chronograph. Also noteworthy is the acrylic crystal, which we always like on a vintage revival. This watch is powered by the legendary El Primero chronograph movement. On the backside the case is numbered xx/50, and engraved *1969-2019*.

On the wrist, this watch is effortless. Zenith hit this one right on the head, with a perfect diameter, and great vintage vibes. This watch takes well to a variety of different straps, but is partial to dark brown. 

One last thing I'll mention is the Warranty. This watch comes with a staggering 50 year complimentary warranty from Zenith! Yes you read that right. The warranty will cover any manufacturing defects, as well normal wear and tear of components, and covers the cost of all servicing during this period.

WHY THIS WATCH

A Masterclass in Subtlety and Old-School Watchmaking 

Breguet is a brand that you really have to look at in a closer and deeper way to appreciate. This watch is a perfect example. At first glance this is a simple, time-only dress watch with a plain dial. What's so remarkable about this watch to justify the $21,000 retail price?  

It's All about the Dial 

The dial here is a perfect example of Breguet's approach to watchmaking. This dial is a Grand Feu "Great Fire" Enamel. The way this dial is made is an extremely time-consuming process in which layers of enamel are added to the dial, which then gets heated in a fire to cast the layers in the place. The base layer alone can contain up to 8 layers. If one mistake is made, the enamel can crack and the entire dial must be thrown out. Are the results worth it? Yes, they are, and you gotta see an enamel dial in person to appreciate it. The dial on this watch is can be described as "Whiter than White" or "Pure White". It's just something special that you can't get any other way. Also, enamel never loses it's luster. Just take a look at the catalogs of vintage watches with enamel dials to see how well this type of dial ages. 

Take a look at the subdial on this watch, and notice how it sinks effortlessly, with no transition edge. I have no idea how this was done. The aforementioned dial is the perfect backdrop for those gorgeous blued hands and hand painted black Breguet numerals. 

Slim Case

The first thing you notice when strapping this on, besides the standout dial, is how slim this watch is. At only 6.5mm thick, this watch is very thin and comfortable despite being 40mm. You also have a cool fluted middle section that adds some contrast to the case.

Calibre 502.35D

Breguet certainly isn't a slouch when it comes to movements. This watch is powered by the Calibre 502.35D, which is an ultra slim automatic movement with a 45 Hour Power Reserve. Flipping the watch over you'll notice the movement is beautifully decorated with beveled bridges, Guilloche, Cotes de Geneve, and polished wheels/screws. While this movement is not going to win any awards for innovation, it's a very finely finished and slim movement that's going to provide reliable timekeeping. 

Wrist Impressions

This watch has such a simple and elegant look and feel. It's truly a dress watch par excellence. What I love most about this dial besides the enamel is it's legibility. There's no subdials (other than the offset seconds) to block your view of the hour and minute hands. Also, the wood on the box is really outstanding, and was a nice suprise.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch was purchased from an Breguet AD in 2018 and was worn sparingly. Case and bracelet are around 90%, with very minor wear throughout. Watch is running strong. Comes with all you see in the pictures, including beautiful elm wood box, outer cardboard box, manuals and warranty paperwork.

WHY THIS WATCH

Razor Thin, unique and One of a Kind

 

Jaeger Le-Coultre has been known for it's mastery of ultra-thin mechanical pieces since the early 1900s. JLC mastery is in full frame with this Vintage Inspired Ultra thin mechanical watch released in 100 pieces for The King's Man movie.   

Impossibly Thin Movement

 

This watch is only 4.2mm thick and was inspired by an ultra-thin pocket watch from 1907, nicknamed The "Le Couteau" which means "the knife". This movement has a pocket watch architecture and is composed of 123 components and is assembled by the same watchmakers that are in charge of JLCs grand complications. The 849 is not only thin but also known for it's reliability. 

Slim Case

 

The movement is housed in an all Pink-Gold 40mm case. At 4.25mm, this watch is beyond thin. You won't have to worry about this watch slipping under any cuff. Just as interesting is the winding crown at 12. There's a vintage style bow that covers the winding crown that was inspired by the original pocket watch. The bow is angled towards the lugs, so it doesn't stick out in front of the case. I was worried about how easy it would be to wind such a crown. I'll say this is probably the easiest winding watch I've ever laid fingers on. The bow acts like a perfect holder for your finger and the crown is very free flowing. 

Wrist Impressions

 

This watch is an easy choice for a standout dress watch that no-one else has. On the wrist, this watch cuts such an elegant and seamless profile. The bow at 12 really makes this watch look and feel special, and isn't obtrusive at all. The watch is a joy to wind, and the dial is refreshingly simple. The gator band is one of the most supple ones we have handled. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is #1 out of 100. Watch was purchased from an JLC AD in 2021 and is Brand New, never worn. It is under JLC's warranty until 2029. It comes with the full set of box and papers.

WHY THIS WATCH

Less is More

 

Here's a surprise: Nomos has produced a high end watch in a noble metal. Nomos has always excelled at providing simple, Bauhaus inspired watches with great mechanical movements. While the Lux is new to the Nomos line, the design formula is the same one Nomos has been following for the last 22 years. 

Bauhaus All The Way

 

At first glance the Lux is a simple, time only model that utilizes a new Tonneau case shape. The case is all white gold, with beautiful wire lugs, and case dimensions of 40mm by 36mm by 9mm. The real showstopper is when you flip the watch over and get a view of the stunning, manually wound calibre DUW 2002 (more on that later). Dial side we have a gorgeous, Bauhaus inspired central dial, with a lighter color backdrop. The backdrop really frames the central dial and sub-seconds hand in a way only Nomos can pull off. 

High Level Watchmaking in disguise 

 

The real highlight of this watch is the in-house calibre DUW 2002. This is a full in house, 23 jewel hand would movement with 84 hours of power reserve. The first thing that hits your eye when you flip the watch over is the sunburst pattern on the three quarter plate. This "fine sunbeam polish", is like a traditional Cotes De Geneve pattern on steroids. Peering deeper into the movement we see that Nomos didn't pull any punches. Beveled edges, thermally blued screws, and gold chatons, abound. To top it off we have an engraved balance cock, with "Lovingly produced in Glashutte" etched by hand. This movement is stunning to behold and wind, and truly offers the best of German watchmaking. 

  

Wrist Impressions

 

On the wrist this watch does what Nomos does best - effortless, pretentious free elegance. The older I get, the more attracted I become to simple, hassle free dials. The white gold adds a nice heft to the watch, allowing it to sit flat on your wrist without jumping around, and without being too heavy. In terms of fit, I would say this watch fits like a 39mm-40mm watch. The movement is a joy to behold and wind, so much so that I wish the power reserve duration was a bit shorter than half a week. The shell cordovan strap is perfectly proportioned, with a nice taper and a very nicely designed buckle. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch was purchased in 2021 and comes with the full set of box and papers including stamped warranty card. Watch is Like New, and only has very minor wear from handling at our storefront, around 98%.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Bear is Back!

 

Every year, Oris releases a Limited Edition run of watches to celebrate Holstein, the village Oris was founded in and still works out of today. The Holstein collection is one that usually sells out pretty quickly and collectors look forward to. This 2021 Holstein watch is limited to a run of 250 watches. 

Inspired by the Original Big Crown 

 

This watch has vintage feels, taking inspiration from the original Oris Big Crown from 1938. The case is the perfect size for a neo-vintage piece, at 38mm, the case is both polished and brushed. Dial-side we have a Matte Grey dial, showing a very nice pointer date complication. I've always been a fan of pointer dates, as I feel they maintain the symmetry of the dial. Flip the watch over and you get a nice engraving of the Oris Bear mascot. 

Bullet-Proof Calibre

 

Inside we have an ORIS Calibre 403, which has a longer than usual 5 day power reserve, and one of the best warranties in the business of 10 years. It's worth mentioning that the calibre this is based on, the Oris 400 is known to be a very reliable and bulletproof calibre. 

  

Wrist Impressions

 

I've always loved matte grey dials and straps, and this watch is no exception. There's just enough color here with a touch of red at 6PM for the seconds hand. The pointer date is truly useful and easy to read. At 38mm this watch is going to fit almost anyone perfectly. The big crown makes a statement but doesn't get in the way. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch was purchased in 2021 and comes with the full set of box and papers including warranty card. Watch is Brand New, never worn. Watch is reference 01 403 7776 4083 and is limited to 250 pieces.

WHY THIS WATCH

This watch was made in a limited run of 2000 pieces to commemorate Carl Brashear, the first African American to qualify as a NAVY diver and the first amputee to qualify as a US NAVY diver. 

This watch is based on the very popular Diver's 65 aesthetic, and comes in an all-bronze case. At 40mm in diameter, 13.3mm thick, 48mm lug to lug, and with a 20mm lug width this watch will fit mosts wrists and slip under any cuff. The caseback shows a nice engraving of a vintage divers helmet, alongside a quote by Carl Brashear. This case is water resistant to 100m. 

Dial-Side, the first thing that pops out is the crystal, which is actually a highly curved sapphire crystal, though it looks like an acrylic. You get the best of both worlds here, with the scratch resistance of sapphire and vintage look of an acrylic. Gold plated  markers are used on to outline the beautiful deep blue gloss dial. The 120 click bezel is also bronze, and uni-directional with lume on the numerals. 

Inside we have the calibre 401, which is automatic winding, 5 day power reserve movement. This is no run of the mill movement. There's 2 mainsprings here, giving you 5 days of power, which is a few days more than a standard movement. The balance wheel is silicone, and tuned to -3 +5 seconds per day at the factory, which is within COSC specs. 

This is so such a great watch for the money. You're getting an all bronze case, housing a movement that is not at all run of the mill. The fact that this is limited to 2000 pieces will also help resale value.  

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is Like New - was purchased New in 2021 and was only tried on, but never worn. It comes with the Outer Box, Inner Box and Manuals and Warranty Card.

WHY THIS WATCH

This beautiful chronograph has hands inspired by the batons of an orchestra conductor. It's topped with a gorgeous blue dial that has a wonderful sheen, especially in direct light. At 41mm, this watch fits more like a 40mm due to the compact lugs. Inside we have the Hamilton H-21 chronograph movement, which has an extended power reserve of 60 hours. This is a fantastic chronograph in the sub $1,000 range.
