A few weeks ago, I reported about the Timeless Tale expo over at the Rolex boutique in Berlin (as part of the Wempe emporium). Some friends of the Dutch Rolex Forum went to Berlin to see the most important watches in the history of Rolex. Rolex Forum regular sBmRnR published their report in this thread, including some nice pictures of the trip and the Rolex Boutique. The report is in Dutch, so here is a small summary in English:

The Rolex Boutique at the famous Kurfurstendamm in Berlin. They had a lot of pieces of their current collection on display, even the stainless steel Daytona ref.116520 was available. Although I noticed that some other authorized dealers have them on display every now and then as well. List price and market price never were so close I believe.

Inside, Rolex displayed their most important or better yet, meaningful watches of their 105 years of existence. The first Oyster case, the Deepsea, Sir Edmund Hillary’s original Rolex… they were all there. Let’s have a look at a few of them:

Here is the original Deepsea, on a rivet bracelet. This watch survived the famous 10916 meter dive in the Marianas Trench on the 23rd of January 1960. The watch was on the hull of the Triest submersible. Fellow blogger Roger Ruegger has done a nice article on this particular watch for his Dive Watches Blog (which is in German).

On the left you see Sir Edmund Hillary’s Oyster Perpetual watch and on the right, the first Oyster Perpetual Explorer (1953). I believe sherpa Norgay wore a Rolex as well and Sir Edmund Hillary is known to have worn other watches during is climbs.

One of my personal favorite Rolex watches is the Day-Date model, launched in 1956 (above is the first model). The first automatic chronometer watch with a day and date indicator, shown above with the famous President bracelet. On the right, the Rolex Milgauss. For a long time, even during the 1980s, no-one wanted to have a Milgauss. Look at these little treasures now during auctions.. you wish you or your father/grandfather bought a few on sale…
More pictures can be found on the Dutch Rolex Forum, but as already said, the text is in Dutch. The photos above and in the Rolex Forum are a bit blurry, it has a reason
Thanks to Jiff, sBmRnR, Frankster and Vandenbroek to report their visit to Berlin and taking the quick ‘n’ dirty shots.
Update: Here is a link to the English Rolex Forums.

Paneristi world wide celebrated their shared passion in Firenze (Florence/Italy) this year, during the P-Day 8 event. The Panerai forums are flooded with pictures, like every year after the event.???? Although not having???? a Panerai in my current collection, I still have lots of love for this brand. After owning a Panerai 113 and a Panerai 000 Logo, it still itches every now and then. Especially now that Panerai has great inhouse movement models (like the Panerai PAM 00312), for decent prices.
Dutch Paneristi Martin Wilmsen, also known for his blog www.wristwatchphoto.com, has this great website PaneristiPix where you can find great photographs of Panerai, Paneristi and their famous get-to-gethers.

Besides PaneristiPix.com, make sure to visit the mother of all Panerai sites, www.paneristi.com for some great photo stories about P-Day 8.

Now that I am a mom, I get to enjoy Mother's Day as the honoree. It is a day when I can truly reflect on how fortunate I am to be the mother of 3 beautiful, healthy children. They, in turn, make me feel like a Queen for a day. I wish I could say that I have always understood what an important day this is for moms. Unfortunately, though I have always loved and appreciated my own mother, it was not until I cleaned caked-on food out of the dining chair seat cushion, pee pee out of the car seat, and throw up out of the carpet that I could start to grasp the relevance of this day. It was not until I experienced what was to become an ordinary day consisting of a wake time of 6 a.m., breakfast, dishes, laundry, bus stop, snacks, playdate, grocery shopping, lunch, naptime (thank goodness!), snacks, bus stop, dinner preparation, dishes, homework, bedtime routines, and shear exhaustion, that I realized the enormity and responsibility of the duties of a mom. Not until I became intimately familiar with the thrill of soft, chubby arms grasped tightly around my neck or utter delight in the sound of all of my children playing cooperatively in the next room or the raw power of an unprompted "I love you, Mommy," when it comes from a high-pitched, sing-song voice behind me as I drive in the car did I begin to understand the complex relationship of a mother and her child(ren). This day is not just a day to be honored for all that we as moms do for our families and our communities, but it is a day for moms to meditate on this gift that we have been given: the task of loving, nurturing, educating, and training our children for their place in the world as adults. Who I am as a mom is in large part because of my mom's influence, and someday my children will come to understand that their mom helped shape who they are as parents. i like fashion watches,see rolex explorer ii and swiss replica read more: Costume Ideas for Young Girls on Halloween A Vagabond's Nightmare

Who I am as a mom is in large part because of my mom's influence, and someday my children will come to understand that their mom helped shape who they are as parents. i like fashion watches,see rolex explorer ii and swiss replica read more: Costume Ideas for Young Girls on Halloween A Vagabond's Nightmare

It was not until I experienced what was to become an ordinary day consisting of a wake time of 6 a.m., breakfast, dishes, laundry, bus stop, snacks, playdate, grocery shopping, lunch, naptime (thank goodness!), snacks, bus stop, dinner preparation, dishes, homework, bedtime routines, and shear exhaustion, that I realized the enormity and responsibility of the duties of a mom.
