Neat little blurb from the tube that has a French Flim vibe, since we just talked about Tavannes. You can see how far they really go back. CTWG

Tavannes “Ta-Von” watches have started to hit the watch market again? A blast from the past? Kinda, Tavannes is a re-release name, but owned by an outstanding gentlemen from Switzerland that had great interest in Cyma Watches for years. Take the watch guy’s word, some great things will be coming from this company soon! I had some sneak peaks at the product and all I can say is WAIT! Solid construction, and new inovative ideas will put them on the map again soon. Check their site for more details! TAVANNE CTWG

So what’s a Turbine for real? A turbine really is a mechanism that draws from air and or sometimes water for power. The relationship and marriage of the mechanism to power is perfect for watches and what better name for a watch than TURBINE. Check the video and new release from our friends at Perrelet, they are making fresh moves in the industry. CTWG

If you want to move some watches, put them on a U.K. actor’s wrist. Time and history have proved that the watches and tough guy-Brits (substitute Scottish, Irish) go hand in hand, driving watch sales. I too find the “Bond Appeal” a selling point. New guys on the scene like Jason Statham have sported high dollar timepieces, making them more desirable in the marketplace. Product placement, a good accent and square jaw=watch sales. Cheerio CTWG
