Watch journalist and replica a lange soh replica chopard Mille Miglia Rubber Strap watches friend of the show, Kristian Haagen, made a few great photographs of one of my favourite watches, the Patek Philippe Nautilus. His version, the chronograph, is the 40.5mm ref.5980/1A and uses an in-house caliber CH 28-520 C movement. I mention in-house, because for a long time, Patek Philippe was relying on chronograph calibers built by Lemania. This particular chronograph has a mono counter for both the hours and minutes totalizer.

Hayek, Chairman and Delegate of the Board of Directors of The Swatch Group Ltd. unexpectedly passed away today due to heart failure during work at his beloved Swatch Group.Mr. Nicolas G. Hayek’s greatest merit was his enormous contribution to the saving of the Swiss watch industry and the foundation and the commercial development of the Swatch Group. Mr. Nicolas G. Hayek’s extraordinary vision enabled him to realize and ensure the sustainability of a strong watch enterprise with high Swiss added value. He is rightly recognized as a leading entrepreneur in this country. With the right personnel decisions, Mr. Nicolas G. Hayek also ensured that his ideas and beliefs will live on and that continuity is guaranteed in regard of shareholders, Board of Directors and the Group Management Board.Lets not forget, that without this man and his entrepreneurship, current (haute) horology probably wouldnt be the same as we know it now. My sincere condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
