I like the new green one better.

New Release: Chopard L.U.C XPS Forest Green Watch | aBlogtoWatch

Introduced in 2006 and rightfully sustained up to this day, the Chopard L.U.C XP and XPS collections reflect the watchmaker’s decision to bring its higher-end, more craftsmanship-focused L.U.C collection to a somewhat more competitive price point. World timers and two-handers near the $10,000...

I didn’t think I’d see anything from W&W this year that I desperately wanted. **** me, I was wrong.

Literally the perfect reissue. Glorious.

The rear view is pretty nice too.

Sadly, limited to 200 pieces each in gold and platinum.

Is it the THA movement?

No, it's caliber 1928MC supposedly their thinnest chronograph movement ever. The THA movement was caliber 045MC.

Cartier are bastards for doing this, but I do hope the completely new movement is an indicator of plans to do more with the Tortue Monopusher in the future than just a limited run.

Did the original SS ceramic GMT ever get a nickname?

No, I don't think it ever had a nickname.

They do this every year. Make some really nice watches that are extremely limited and basically only whales and influences can buy.

Cartier is best in show IMO. In addition to everything shown already, these are two that I called...

Dark dial Americaine - I'm actually very interested in this one, but it's probably not going to make it to my AD

Santos GMT - really nicely integrated subdial, very well balanced colors, no obstruction of numerals.

I don’t even have crazy spend and can probably get whatever short of a crash.

I’m not sure these are that limited.

ALS did a release of 2 Datographs that no one will be able to get.

And that are absolutely hideous for a watch that is already f*cking atrociously ugly.

The release I'm most excited for today is the next generation Toyota 4Runner.

What watch is that?

Krayon, brilliant, love it. Underrated brand.

The Americaine is cool, but the Santos GMT looks like it might have some legibility issues with the subdial.

The Americaine is really cool. I hope Cartier makes this in other colors and not some LE watch.

The Patek offerings are rather underwhelming.
