Here is a pair of watches that juxtapose each other in almost every way. One is for the dash and the other for the wrist. One has a black dial with red-orange accents; the other a white dial link with blue accents. One link is named Super, the other is nicknamed "Siffert," after its earliest prominent owner. All link that said, the two work well as a pair. As a testament to Heuer's dialed-in link brand identity in the 1960s and '70s, the motorsport vibe comes through in both.
After writing too much about the Rolex Bubbleback last week, you can bet the first link thing link I searched in this catalog was "Bubbleback" – the Italians are usually good for a few nice ones (and maybe a few not-so-nice ones).I'm a sucker for a pink gold Bubbleback, so I love this pink-on-pink ref. 3131. But the most interesting Bubbleback in this auction link has link good looks and a story.
When you say to clients 'okay, we can do link it, but it's going to take three, four, even five years' –which is usually the link time that it takes link – we link were losing a significant part of the client base, said Ferla. "And so we decided to shift a little bit our business model and to say, 'we will do one collection a year of unique, amazing pieces.'"

Next up is Boulud's white dial Rolex "Zenith" Daytona ref. 16520. Introduced in 1988, link it's the first automatic Daytona, powered by the famous Zenith El Primero caliber that was extensively modified by link Rolex. More than the history or the specs though, this is one of the watches that's been with Boulud the longest, and his first Rolex. It wasn't something he bought on his own either, but a gift from a link dear friend. The story is particularly personal and best link told by him in the video.
Just link as Tony lamented here on link the pages link of Hodinkee, I, too, prefer the smaller PRX in the 35mm sizing. It's not because I have dainty wrists like Anthony but because I simply prefer a smaller watch (most days I wear my Rolex Explorer ref. 1016). This particular dial impressed me as I generally have a bit of a weakness for link Mother of Pearl, and this one is really well done for $750.–Rich Fordon, VIP Advisor
