Earlier this week I had a short but interesting mail exchange with Nick, owner of He pointed this article out on his website, regarding the Dent 1508 Ship Chronometer.

To this:
The original dial (with gold print) and hands are kept and restored as good as possible. The bracelet has been repaired and refurbished as well. The case also has been refurbished as you can see. The caliber 1030 movement got a complete overhaul and is running within COSC specifications again. This project took about 12 hours in total. Amazing.

So Balmain is trying out the whole handbag endeavor. And the consensus is a bit of mixed with mostly a side of “ehh”. I felt entirely underwhelmed and let down. Fairly simple messenger style bags were released with a few adornments,watch rolex replica, but all the exact same design. And the price was exorbitantly high for a new line of bags that were not hand-stitched.
I ignored and moved on. And the handbag-o-sphere went silent about Balmain. But now Net A Porter popped up with a few clutches and it time for a review.
Come on Balmain, I expect more from you. It is not that these clutches are not ok, because, well, they are. They are simple clutches. Simple designs. But the worst part about the simplicity of it all is that the final product is rather simple. One option is the Balmain Night Punk Studded Suede Clutch. This option brings us precisely the same bronze, pewter, and silver-tone studs as one of the messenger bags they released. The shape of the clutch, again simple. Entirely simple, so much so that I find it to be boring in its shape. Oh, and the price tag is a whopping $2,Fashion Week Must Have Bag Be&D Genesis,710 at Net A Porter. You read that right. And the clutch is not even oversized.
The second Balmain clutch I can withstand a bit more. It has a bit more of a punk edge to it. The Balmain Night Pearl Leather Clutch features black leather with silver tone embellished heart and flower charms. Also there is crossover leather strands across the front and back of the clutch, adding volume. This clutch gives me the feeling of the pin up girl, a feminine dress with killer heels,wiss replica rolex, bright red lipstick, and this punk rock clutch. The price is more manageable than the suede studded version, but I am still no where near clicking to buy. $2120 via Net A Porter.
Overall I am still rather underwhelmed with Balmain bags. Their clothing and shoes are a force to be reckoned with but their bags need work.
Last week (well,Its like you read my mind,rolex yachtmaster replica, the 17th of february already,leather handbag manufacturers, but didn’t have much time to make a picture and post something here) my watch arrived. I really had a hard time choosing a new watch… Another Panerai with a black dial, a vintage Submariner (ref.1680) or a new GMT-Master II. I used to have a ref.1675 GMT-Master, but I didn’t want to wear that one on a daily basis. However, the voices in head told me that I really needed a GMT-Master again. So I ordered one at my watch dealer and it didn’t take too long before it arrived!
This Rolex GMT-Master II ref.16710 is a 2006 model (with the new box and no holes in the case anymore).
