Is The Big Watch Game Over?

clowning

42mm seems to be the resting point for big watches. Companies go bigger and smaller still to play it safe 39mm-42mm is always in style and a safe trend buster. The Folks at Rolex could care less and put most of their product at 36mm and it works, but if you collect others, hit the sweet spot. CTWG

Nienaber Bünde - Hidden Talent

Watch Maker.jpgstunde.swfPicture_0488.jpg

Exceptional watchmakers get special attention on CTWG and Nienaber Bünde would be one of them. Retrograde specialties and hand made beautiful watches are all you will find in his collection. If you make your way to Hall 5 in Basel you will find some of these special watch professionals, showing pieces they labored over for years. Many do not deal with the public often and have shy mannerisms, but amazing talent. Look beyond some of the big hitters in the industry and you may find the perfect timepiece that you never thought would thrill you, perhaps a Nienaber Bünde? CTWG
