      The new Singer Heritage chrono is gor-geous. Powered by a hand-wound Valjoux 236, which is beautiful in its own right. MSRP is 16,700 CHF.

          @chiverus thx mate . That will be exciting for you to go hunting for those . I used to own a chronostop 145.008. Didn’t get much wrist time so ended up selling it . Love the Zenith . Keep us updated if you find something interesting 🤙😊💙

              I may well be able to at least have a singer watch before one of their cars ( which would be my car that they just rip apart and then put back together albeit somewhat better than it would have ever been)

                If you can stomach Ben Clymer's overwrought prose, Hodinkee has just posted a hands-on with the 6196P, which he calls "the best Calatrava in a generation."

                  I have a thing for the Omega Aqua Terra Ultra Light, and this year Chopard and Ulysee Nardin have replaced conceptually similar pieces.

                  Chopard has put the Alpine Eagle on a diet, replacing its movement's plates with ceramicised titanium, much like Omega did with the Ultra Light, to create the Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF.

                  Alpine Eagle Super-Light

                  Alpine Eagle Movement

                  I've been a fan of Chopard's 8HF series, from the original LUC model onwards, and I really like the look of this watch. I wish they had the option of a bracelet, which is an opinion that I share with the Hodinkee journalist who covered it, although that would probably blunt its mission statement.

                  Ulysee Nardin has skipped the Ozempic and gone straight onto weight loss surgery for the Diver [AIR], which weighs 52 g on its strap. They have removed a large part of the movement's backplate, then built the watch out of titanium and recycled IMOCA offshore racing boats. Again, Hodinkee has more.

                    That Chopard is a stunner. Agreed on the bracelet but I’d take it on the rubber.

                    Think it, be it.

                            @mclaincausey it's probably my favourite Alpine Eagle, even without a bracelet, but the open worked model is a close second.

                            @louisbosco I don't know how much clout Ben Clymer has these days, but that Patek seems to be on a lot of best of lists. Mere mortals like us will probably not get one.

                                Zenith is offering a platinum bracelet for the GFJ, if you've got more money than the average Doctor Evil meme references.

                                  They really love that cross hatch motif innit?

                                  ChatGPT said that if we want to do an economically illiterate tariff based on trade deficits Switzerland will sit at 30% so that's now in place. Fun times for American watch enthusiasts!

                                            Just heard back from MB&F that I was picked for their M.A.D.2 raffle (I have entered the raffle each time). So this should be coming to me in the next few weeks or months. Not too excited to pay 31% tariff on it. Maybe I'll get lucky. Fourth green dial watch...
                                            M.A.D. is the (much!) lower priced small series production from MB&F. It uses a La Joux-Perret G101 movement with a custom jumping hour module.
