the same L686 movement used in its sister model in the Longines Admiral line
The impressive case (diameter 44 mm) is fitted with the same L686 movement used in its sister model in the Longines Admiral line. The case features a double tachymeter on the bezel. Graduated in kph as well as MPH, it can be used for measuring ground-speeds of up to Mach 2. The dial in a choice of black, dark brown or white with a silver sun pattern and featuring a large 12 brings a sporty touch as well as elegance to the model. This sporty aspect is emphasised by the non-slip surface of the crown, the caseband and the push-pieces. The latest addition to the GrandeVitesse line is available on a steel bracelet with a triple folding safety clasp or a black or dark brown leather strap lined with alcantara and fitted with a folding clasp.
Perhaps one of Victorinox's earliest achievements
Perhaps one of Victorinox's earliest achievements was creating the earliest mass-produced pocket timepiece with a couple of separate time zones, in 1853. Another key achievement came in 1929 with the production of the very first anti-magnetic watch.

The seller claims it is 100% original, and we have nothing that good things heard speak this particular seller, so we would like to think they are the truth.
Harry Winston Opus Eleven Watch
With another year comes another Harry Winston Opus watch. As we eagerly anticipate the result per annum, 2011 reveals itself as being a shockingly good season for the collection. Back in 2000 the Opus collection started as a series of limited edition timepieces that were a collaboration between Harry Winston and a single famous watch maker (go here to see all of them). The concept was dreamed up by then man-in-charge Max Busser. The tradition has been so successful, that it continues in even fuller force. This year the Opus man is watch maker Denis Giguet of MCT, who created the amazin
Greubel Forsey Invention Piece 3 Watch
The first thing you will notice when checking out this watch is the text all over the dial - at least that is the first thing I notice. This is some sort of secret message written in "billionaire tongue" from Mr. Greubel and Mr. Forsey to buyers of the limited edition Invention Piece 3 watch. The text isn't in English, but rather in French (I think). It could also be code that you need a cryptologist to decipher all Da Vinci Code style. In fact, here are the top five things the tiny text on the dial could be that would amuse me:1. Operating instructions for the Invention # 3 timepiece
