Some baubles and trinkets for those that are considerably more richer than thou:

Zenith Ultra-thin (3.mm auto movement)




Panerai, first a sandwich dialed LM with P9000 in-house movement:


...and a LE Radiomir


...and a back-in-the-day Radiomir Composite Marina Militare 8 Giorni (which has some interesting hardness tech)


...and finally an Equation of Time watch - (EoT is the difference between real solar time and time as we know it, (or something like that), a mere $220,000. Luminor 1950 Equation of Time Tourbillon Titanio 50mm




Gruebel Forsey with the usual cheap tat:
Tourbillon 24 Secondes:




Richard Mille with something typically easy on the eye....(Using carbon nanofibre(?) it's only 8.7mm thick)
017 Ultra Thin Tourbillon:




IWC have some new stuff too...
IWC Da Vinci Chronograph Ceramic. (Ceramic case).


(I think the rest of the offerings from IWC were the existing models with a bigger choice of case material i.e. rose gold)


A. Lange & Sohne. Interesting, apologies if not a new model, I'm not too up on L&S.
Zeitwerk Luminous



Last but certainly not least here is JLC, chucking complications our way as if they were going out of fashion...
Jaeger-LeCoultre Duomètre à Quantième Lunaire:

"A new development of the "dual-wing" concept, with the Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 381, and a new open-worked dial revealing the details of the movement, with an indication of the moon phases and a jumping seconds hand. A new seconds jumping hand stop mechanism allows precision to 1/6th of a second when setting the time. This timepiece is available in pink gold and a limited series of 300 in yellow gold."

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor LAB 2:


...a return to the Memovox, Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox International:


...and the Master Memovox:

Some new AP ROO pieces as well - the GP LE - don't like them, bit too flashy.

Some beauties there....

But I'm still waiting to see a Panerai that I actually likefrown

They do absolutly nothing for me....
I'm wearing my 44mm Luminor Power Reserve today and love it. Easily my favourite watch.

A good alternative would seem to be the Paris 'Belles Montres' exhibition. At SIHH I think it's a trade show rather than a public one like BM so there's better access.

Belles Montres Photo Essay

Dom - I did actually think that when I saw it originaly!
