Some realworld shots of three refreshing watches seen in Basel 2008
Hi
Just returned from Basel and thought I could share some (quick and dirty) realworld shots of three not so usual watches. Apart from their creative approach they have nothing much in common, varying (dramatically) in prices, functions, formats and places of birth. I just found them refreshing. Here we go:
1. The only digital watch I would wear—and with pleasure: De Grisogono Meccanico dG
2. And a close-up shot of the dial
3. The ingenious new Seiko Spring Drive chronograph
4. And finally, something to chill out after all this gadgetry: Two beautiful variants of the elegant Pita 9.2
I hope you enjoyed my choices. Thanks for looking!
Valentin

Prototype?
Thanks Valentin, The de Grisogono Digital is an interesting variation on the mechanical watch. I hope that it is a prototype as those hands are rather disappointingly finished, although the colour choice adds an interesting accent to the watch The Pita si...
Hi Kong, the piece shown here was in a glass
cabinet and there were no other pieces available for the public. I can only say that it's a huge and fat watch. However, due to its nicely curved shape it could still look good on the wrist. Cheers, Valentin
nice selection!
I like the watches you selected to show. Of course the Di Grisogono is my absolute favorite for this year, but the revival of the Seiko Bullhead is also more than excellent Thanx for sharing!
I really love your selection, especially...
....De Grisogono Meccanico dG. Thanks for all nice pics. Cheers
Great choices. That De Grisogono looks very interesting!
That close up shot of all those gears and levers are soooo cool. Thanks, Valentin!
