Trump showed a chart listing a levy of 31% on goods imported to the US from Switzerland.Trump said tariffs of 10% would be imposed on all trading partners while "'reciprocal" double-digit tariffs would be levied against a group of individual nations, including Switzerland. One of the most friendly of the group was Sandro Fratini, seated in the center. Fratini is known to be one of the most prominent collectors in the world (top three, one person there told me) and published his My Time tome of a book with Christie's years back, but he would walk around with his hand firmly grasping my arm or around my shoulder as we talked. Seiko has also announced a more modern version of the classic design. References SPB051 and SPB 053 are, respectively, the bracelet and strap versions; the two also have slightly different bezel treatments. The dial gives way to the open-worked, in-house Calibre 3132, with its double balance wheel mechanism. You can actually view this from the front or back of the watch. That double balance mechanism, of course, also debuted in 2016 with the ref. 15407 (another openwork piece). These routines are all artificially regulated by the clock. When these engravings were commissioned, clocks could still be expensive consumer goods in Europe, and it seems like there could be a bit of poetic license in the depictions, since the people in this poem, even the poorest, have a working clock available in every room of the house. Jean Arnault is the Director of Marketing and Development for Watches at Louis Vuitton. In his short tenure shepherding the brand, beginning in 2021, he has made considerable noise in the industry and proven that while he's here to change things for the better, he hasn't lost sight of the past.

The trouble with limited edition watches is that they often celebrate something incredibly esoteric and only significant to a select few. Seiko's 55th anniversary trilogy is not one of those limited editions. Instead, it celebrates over half a century of innovation in dive watches. Many of us in the hobby found our way in through a Seiko diver, and that's no accident. “It certainly doesn't represent the cutting edge of state-of-the-art modern horology,” Jack said, as only he can. In his counterpoint, Mr. Forster inserts photographs of the Tudor Black Bay GMT One for Only Watch with its caliber MT5652-1U, and tries to pass this off as entry-level. A Tudor piece-unique is entry-level?? Despite being quite niche, these ABC-Kameras have commanded not-so-insignificant numbers in recent years which, knowing the market for rare photographic equipment, is to be expected. This particular example looks to be in excellent condition, with all its painted accents still intact and likely still shootable should you wish to get crafty and start cutting up 35mm negatives. At launch, there are ten different references. There are three different variations of the 41mm version with date, and seven examples of the 36mm no-date version.

Did you really think I’d do an entire list of non-diver quartz watches? When you think “cheap-as-chips” and full of charm, few watches deliver as well as the Russian-made Vostok Amphibia divers. Available in a wide array of versions, this is a watch that was introduced to many a collector via Bill Murray as Steve Zissou in Wes Anderson’s The Life Aquatic.
