First Generation AP Royal Oak

The automatic watch of AP included a 21 carat gold rotor placed in the center. Their "Royal Oak" series was produced in 1972 and is considered to have created the market for the stainless steel luxury watch. It was designed by Gerald Genta.

Today the company, along with Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, is sometimes claimed to be one of the top three Swiss watchmakers. Every timepiece manufactured in-house is still made using the old-fashioned hand-made technique.

This early Royal Oak is 18K solid gold massive huge watch, with "AP" was imprinted on the lower portion of the dial, instead of set at the 12 o'clock position as on the later design. Very Rare!

SleepTracker Watch

The Key to Waking Up Refreshed

Why is it so hard to wake up to a normal alarm clock? Because a normal alarm clock can't detect where you are in your sleep cycle - a continuous cycle from deep sleep, to brief almost-awake moments, and back to deep sleep again. Occasionally, your alarm may catch you at an optimal, almost-awake moment and you wake up feeling refreshed, but usually you grope for the snooze button waking up tired and groggy.

Wake at Your Perfect TimeSLEEPTRACKER® puts an end to that tired feeling. Once you set its alarm window, it monitors your body and continuously looks for your optimal waking times so it can wake you at just the right moment. Imagine not feeling tired in the morning and getting a few extra minutes out of your day. Sleep Tracker ensure you morning to fresh and ready to get to work at best physical condition.

Seiko Automatic Generating System Watch

Seiko’s Quartz watch breakthrough in history with the its AGS or Automatic Generating System . Introduced in Germany , Jan. 1988 , it was the world’s first quartz watch to use an automatic power generating system . The auto pendulum or rotor is swung by movement of the wrist and this goes through a gear chain and multiplied by 100 .

This in turn spins a power-generator at high speed to produce a current and charges a capacitor which in turn feeds the time circuits. High technology and cutting edge in the 80s ; It has now been developed further in the guise of the Seiko Kinetic but AGS was the name only on the first models . The watch can stay up with 75 hours power reserve by the capacity. I think it has the advantage of both accuracy and enviornment friendily as it does not need a battery cell at all!

Attched is a rare sample of Seiko A.G.S. One photo shows the rotor in use as what we are using on our Automatic Watch.

Another one is the display of the two coils, one for the drivr for the step motor to energize the movement of the watch.

The last picture reviel the capacitor to store up the kenetic energy from the rotating rotor for power of the quartz and the electronic IC chips.

Nowadays, Seiko AGS watch is named with "Kenetic"!

Patek Philippe Man's dress watch

Patek Philippe - since its founding in 1839, Patek Philippe timepieces have been considered among the finest in the world. Currently the only manufacture in the world that creates all of its movements by the rigid standards of the Geneva Seal, a Patek Philippe watch is a work of horological art and timeless aesthetic perfection that represents the absolute pinnacle of luxury, elegance and refinement.

Patek Philippe models hold and increase their value more than almost any other brand in the world, which has led to the manufacture’s mantra: “You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation.” Some of the famous model has caught the auctioneers’’ and had been the most after sought item of Watches.

The most touching ad and in fact right and true description on how a valueless watch that is!
On April 10th, 2008, the Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon model set the world record for the most expensive modern wristwatch ever sold, bringing $1.49 million at Sotheby's Hong Kong auction.
