New pilot watches in 2008

Aha, the AP strategy. It is somewhat galling that they are making a series for Tourneau. :bangin: Why not Zales? :Jumpy:

Or Kay Jewlers.....Can just hear the Michael Bolton song now :p

I actually think it is smart marketing. I prefer the orange dial over a BR -_-

"Father & Son", both made of platinum.

Looks like the St. Exupery. Only not as nice. And the name -- Father and Son? Sounds like it should've been a DH Lawrence edition. :p

"Bartorelli titane"

Clearly, the best of these new watches. Titanium gives it a stealth look.

"Sincere titane"

Guys, I know from the replies this is popular with you, but this is AWFUL.

Yes, better than the B&R, I agree, but it ruins the elegance of the Big Pilot...

"Rabat"

Rabat? For the King of Morocco, no doubt. The gold on black is garish enough.

"Tourneau"

This cannot BE a Tourneau caseback. It doesn't have a snobby attitude when I come in.

"Gassan"

My favourite. Which isn't saying much. :p

These computer generated pictures may look deceptive. Sometimes watch is much better in real life :p

Agreed. Even on this pictures, the "Father & Son" combo looks different.

The Sincere ti already starts to grow on me, though. I'd like to have a 5002 or 5004 first anyway.

There are rumours (on rwi) they have already started repping them but still searching for a fitting movement.

Hi,

Has anyone pulled the trigger on the Bartorelli ; link here :

Just curious on how accurate it is if you have it. I"m thinking of getting it but not sure of the accuracy. Are there big flaws or just minor ones? Please comment.
