Hermès Clipper - Automatic Chronograph Watch

I haven't blogged about a watch in a while mainly because I'm honestly someone who just sticks to the regular G-Shock that I can wear all the time. But there comes a time when the G-Shock isn't appropriate to wear all the time and you have to step your game up a little. Hermès has released a new watch called the Hermès Clipper – Automatic Chronograph. It is 44 mm in diameter, and has an anti-glare treated sapphire crystal with water resistance up to 200 meters. It also features a Swiss automatic ETA Valjoux Caliber 7750 and contains a 46 hour power reserve. Definitely a step up from you average "every-day" watch. Very cool!

Celsius X VI II Remontage Papillon

I'm never one to leave the house without a watch, it always makes my wrist feel naked. I know a lot of people dont mind having their cellular phone as a substitue for a watch but the good folks at Celsius X VI II have taken it one step further by completely combining an cellular phone with a tourbillion watch that integrates a patented rewinding mechanism hidden within its hinge.
Inspired by tourbillion watches—invented in the late 18th century to offset the supposed effects of gravity on accuracy by rotating a full 360º within a cage—Celsius' love for mechanical triumphs of centuries past permeates the many components of the the Papillon. Made using 547 mechanical components (most of them hand-finished), the new gadget strives for "the dream of a completely mechanical mobile phone: a phone in which every function will operate mechanically, solely through human energy."
To produce the hybrid, Celsius collaborated with renowned watchmaker Richard Mille and horological design team Confrérie Horlogère. The end result is a completely original design that brilliantly combines technology with the mechanical mastery of a Richard Mille timepiece.
Assuming you have the $275,000 that this timepiece cost, you can venture to Germany to for the 2011 Baselworld Watch and Jewelery Show. If not you have an entire year to save up. The show will be held from March 24th - 31st 2011.

IT'S FINALLY DROPPING! Bape x G-Shock DW-6900

All of my original "Bape Heads" that have been following Bape since way before the SoHo store opened know that this is the watch that started it all. This watch in both white and black colorways were the original Bape G-Shocks that were released in Japan. Here in the US we didn't get a chance to see the release of this colorway until now. On August 23rd, anyone looking for this watch can pick it up in Bathing Ape store nationwide.
