Is this a new pick-up?

I was in the Ball AD last week and he was showing me the PR pics of the new Ball BMW line (42mm) coming soon, COSC, power reserve, GMT,etc. May be interesting except for the BMW logo on dial.

Wow, how many Top Times do you have? If you used a really wide angle lens, think they could fit in a pic? :)
Congrats! very clean.

About 3 weeks ago. I was going to buy a very simple day/date Hamilton dress watch and they showed me this one, which of course was about 3 times as much, but when it was sized and I put it on, I had to have it. It is a love/hate watch - no in between. The day/date is crazy, but I kinda like crazy. I would prefer the blue lumed numbers on the ceramic bezel insert were a tad smaller. The bracelet links are not welded like a cheap bracelet, only 2.5mm thick and about 5mm wides, so it flows and hugs the wrist better than any I've worn. It certainly gives it a "make no mistake" tool watch look. I'm going to be trying it out on a spare 20mm DPII/deploy and thing it will look good that way. Only 41mm, it wears much larger. And, no pun intended, after 3 weeks is dead "ball(s)"on at +/- zero sec/day. I never thought about Ball and quite dislike many, but in looking at the huge collection they had was amazed how many I did liked and how reasonably priced they are.

well, actually this one below would be where the Transocean Chrono really got it looks; the ref. 810, on my wrist today.
Love the Vacheron, Sal !

@Kodiak: afraid a wide angle lense would not be enough, but that new Panorama feature on the iPhone 5 ?
admit I have quite a lot of TopTimes .....
