Watches - another OCD problem
-
Montblanc have announced a new chronograph, with one of those gorgeous Minerva movements in it. It's 40mm, so slightly smaller than the bronze one that we've drooled over in the past. I like the green dial and strap too.
They're also bringing out a gloriously impractical pocket watch with a stone dial, Minerva movement, and a compass at the back. I want one.

Damn, that Lange looks fantastic. Love those special edition IWCs, too. I've always liked the jumbo date.

I thi nk it's just an artifact, a shadow. Check this page of the same model in gold and look at the various pics - no hole.

They're transitioning into the new "super premium luxury tool watch" category.

Expect a hand-polished version of the Leatherman Tread from Lange in white, yellow, or rose gold before too long.

Jaeger LeCoultre have revived the Polaris line. I particularly like the limited edition Memovox model.
There's also an three hander with date and non-date versions, a chronograph, and a world-timer chronograph.

The Mont Blanc Chrono is splendid. The 48 Vintage is a bit too Vintage for me, Mark XVIII Edition «Tribute to Mark 11» is my Favorit of the Pilot Series at the Moment.
The new Lange Triple Split is an Intense Piece of Watchmaking, a Dress Watch with the Measurements of a Full blown Diver and the most compliacted Clockwork ever.

@Giles I wish Jaeger had done a reissue based on the Polaris II from the 1970s, though that loses the super compressor case. It is, however, very blue.
@Steffen I agree on the Lange. For those who haven't seen it, Hodinkee have a write-up.
If you're into chronographs, the FP Journe Rattrapante is interesting. The titanium version is my favourite, but they all look a bit over-styled for my tastes.
Given how obsessed everyone is with vintage, I really like that the Hermès Carré H has gone for a simple, modern design. It's one of my favourite pieces from SIHH.
Lastly, there's the H Moser & Cie Endeavour, which has an Urwerk style orbital hours display. (Urwerk are planning a mechanical watch that's regulated by an atomic clock)!

My Favorit Vintage Watch is already remade by Jaeger, the Deep Sea.

That thing is the singularly worst doohickey I have ever purchased
