East West® by Tiffany & Co

Reading Time: < 1 minute A Tiffany travel clock from the 1940s serves as an inspiration for this interesting wristwatch. A classic design, but with a touch of difference.

Perrelet as a collecting item

Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to make this particular watch mine so I put it on the wish list. This beauty has an 18k yellow gold case, a very nice decorated ETA2892-A2 and the original box.

Chaumet HORTENSIA “AUBE ROSÉE”

Reading Time: 2 minutes When it comes to ladies watches, the market is not so full of choices. But the main issue is that a lot of the ladies models are just quartz. My wife told me she is always frustrated that for her, the usual (to read the only) choice must be, in […]
