From the Inside Flap
Panerai’s watchmaking tradition spans 150 years from its foundation in Florence in the 1860s. As supplier to the Royal Italian Navy, Panerai perfected the world’s first underwater timepieces in the 1930s, which were both waterproof and luminescent. Panerai timepieces represent both glamor and technical brilliance. Until the 1970s,iPhone users FratelloWatches just became iProof..,rolex airking, these beautifully designed watches were known only to the connoisseur; today they are collected by “Paneristi” throughout the world. Courageous adventurer Mike Horn wore a Panerai Arktos designed for him while making a solo circumnavigation of the Arctic Circle between 2002 and 2004. Panerai: The History presents the watchmaker’s remarkable technical and aesthetic achievements in original photography. An extensively researched catalog of the watches and other pieces in the firm’s collections and archives provides a unique resource for collectors and watch specialists.

Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011! - Fratellowatches.com

Dec
31

Dear readers of this blog,

We are only few hours away from 2011! I am pretty sure that 2011 will be an exciting year for (haute) horlogerie. In 2010, we’ve seen a lot of new watches that were really out of this world, such as The Palace by Jean Dunand, the Rebellion T-1000 and Max Busser’s HM No.4. Besides these, we’ve seen re-incarnations of classic time pieces such as the Rolex Explorer in 39mm, the Bulova Accutron Spaceview and the Glycine Airman Base 22. And everything in between of course. My friend Frank Geelen of Monochrome did a nice write-up on the best timepieces of 2010 and I wholeheartedly agree with his choice of timepieces.

So, what will 2011 bring us? We’ve seen some great previews for the SIHH2011 already, like the Tribute to 1931 Reverso by Jaeger-LeCoultre for example. Personally, I can’t wait to see some of the new horological promises by Audemars Piguet, Rolex, Grönefeld Exclusive Timepieces, Linde Werdelin’s new chronograph and so on.

What about Fratellowatches in 2011? Well,rolex replica, I will continue to blog about watches and will do my best trying to increase the number of articles. You can – again -  expect in-depth coverage on novelties, BaselWorld, SIHH, GTE and other watch events. More importantly, I will keep voicing my opinion on watches,rolex replica, the watch industry and what more. Keep in mind that this is my personal blog and therefore always reflects my personal opinion on watches, brands, watch books, events etc.

Besides Fratellowatches and my regular job, I am currently working for a number of other media (e.g. AskMen, MotoringExposure, WATCH Magazine, WatchUseek and others) as much as I can, which I will also continue to do in 2011 of course.

For now, I would like to thank all watch friends (old and new ones),rolex replica, readers (and the number is still growing every year) for your time and comments, my advertisers and sponsors for a great horological 2010 and love to see you back in 2011!

Just like last year’s end-of-year post, let me end this post with a photo of my latest acquisition, my Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph ref.26300ST. A big thank you to Jaap of Precisionwatches, who has been sponsor of Fratellowatches for years now.

Thanks For All Support And Happy New Year Everyone!

Louis Vuitton Damier Canvas Speedy

,Hublot Watches

Ok so I realize that I have been MIA for a while. My apologies. Work was taking over my life but now I won’t let it. To start off on the right foot with my paying more attention to the site, comes a purchase of a new bag. Yes, I had to do it Most and many are in the Speedy Club. Remember back in grade school when everyone got a Trapper-Keeper and you didn’t have a new hip one… well that is how left out I felt from the coveted LV Speedy. The Speedy boasts tons of exposure and is one of the most recognizable styles from LV. Right now, the Damier canvas Speedy’s are in stock and I just clicked on submit for my 30!!!

The Louis Vuitton Damier Canvas Speedy is trimmed in chocolate leather which flows perfectly with the Damier canvas. There is something about the Damier canvas that I love- very simple,wholesale leather handbag, but different in a way. The bag closes with a zip top and has a gold padlock. On the inside you will find red textile lining with a patch pocket to store some goodies. Available through eLuxury in the 25 (which measures 10″ x 7″) or through eLuxury in the 30 (which measures 12″ x 8″). I opted for the 30. Next week I will show you all some pictures (below is the 30),Thank you for the good writeup!!

Louis Vuitton Simple Keep It Bracelet

You may have seen various kinds of fashion bracelets,uboat classico,Its like you read my mind, innovative or luxurious,rolex gmt replica, cheap or expensive. But I bet that you have never seen such a bracelet like this Louis Vuittom Keep It Bracelet. Its design can not be simple, yet it has a deep meaning. Perhaps you would also like it. Let’s have a look.

This LV Keep It Bracelet is available in two styles. One is made from the historic LV Damier canvas and the other from the Damier Azur canvas. If you have ever paid attention to LV Fashion Jewelry, you would know that actually LV has used most of its material elements in jewelry design. It is not rare to see the use of Monogram Floral motif, the brand initials and multicolor monogram. And here comes the Damier canvas and Damier Azur canvas. That is the LV style.

The iconic Keep It bracelet in time-honored canvas pattern is perfect for men and women alike. But I would suggest the Damier one for men and the Dameir Azur one for women. It is not for particular reason, just feeling. The Louis Vuitton-engraved lock made from shiny golden or palladium-finish metal is easy to open and close. It is simple but definitely not dull. Perhaps you would like to wear it every day and keep it forever. After all, it is not that pricy. Each retails for $170.00.  Or you could buy yourself a Replica LV Purse as well.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull

The latest Louis Vuitton catalog was one of the best photographed catalogs I have seen in a long time. There was a holiday theme which was not over-the-top cutesy, rather sophisticated and perfectly fitting. One of my favorite photos was a fairytale-like forest scene accented with an array of Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bags.

From the minute the Louis Vuitton Neverfull hit the scene,replica rolex Daytona, it was a handbag lovers favorite. The design is inherently simple yet functional. And then Louis Vuitton decided to dress up the Neverfull with Crocodile skin,watches u boat, which had us at hello (though the $32,000 price tag is a bit out of reach).

The Neverfull is available in Monogram, Damier,rolex daytona replica, and Monogram Roses right now (with new versions being released periodically). There are three sizes as well. Shop via Louis Vuitton online.
