Probably the most beautiful Cartier Lady Dress Watch


Well, this is a beautiful Art Deco design, elegant, slim, 18kt Pink Gold with some finely selected diamonds.....

I am sure not too many beauties can match with this kind of watch, of course, it is a limited edition. "Rare" does it mean that it is expensive? Yes... it is... very expensive!

How much? HKD$420,000.00! I am sure that I can not afford to have one... Even though I had one, donot know to whom of my SheNth should get it... She1st, She2nd, She3rd, She4th...??

Cartier has the best design from Heaven... don't care it is made with quartz movement, even though it is,  So what? Who would Care?

Daytona TT and Solid Gold

Daytona is always one of the best sport watch, super durable, super beautiful and functionable. Attached is two of them. I had one Two Tone but I sold it to Paul in 1997. The Gold one is one of my favourite as it is massive and bling-bling! There are three favourite Sport watchs, PP Nautinus, AP Royal Oak automatic, and Daytona!

Restoration of Watches


After using a few year to tenths of years, watch would become blurred, having scratches, slowing down as the lubricant dries and mixed with dirts. These are two watches that has been badly worn off and badly scratched...

I had take away to some of the master for restoration...and I will show you again soon after the repair.

Breitling Chrono Cockpit, A watch for the Pilot

This is the watch of a UK friend Alf.... A Breitling Chrono Cockpit.

I have seen a lot of pilot wearing Breitling. Usually they are big, complicated on the dial, a lot of functions that they know me, but I do not know them..  This is a typical chrono with traditional design of placing the three indicators in the triangular shape of position.

Beautifully polished bezel and strap...good for man with a large wrist...but not for A typically stocky Chinese like me...
