Cloud 10 Status: Gucci 90 Anniversary '1921' Timepieces


The subtlety and sheer elegance of these Gucci timepieces designed by Gucci head Frida Gianni herself. I think these would look so beautiful adorning a dainty female wrist.  This post reminds me of the old Gucci watches with the interchangeable colored bands.  YALL REMEMBER THOSE?

The “1921″ collection includes four slick leather “G-frame” styles for women and two styles of the “Coupe” silhouette for men designed by Frida Giannini. Glamorous and classic, the kind of watch you will want to wear for a very long time.

The Men's offering.. Love the bands on these.

Cloud 10 Status: Breitling Chronospace Automatic Chronometer

The Upgrade Main Chick Watch... Your old watch is BITTER..

This is the watch your watch will feel jilted for, the watch your watch may pull a Mary Harvey and start a tirade of promotion, maybe milk a book deal and a reality show.  This Breitling Chronospace Automatic Chronometer is one of those timepieces that will turn heads.  Yes ladies and gentlemen... MEET THE OTHER WATCH!

According to Selectism "Here is the Breitling Chronospace Automatic Chronometer – soon to be available in four dial colors. ”The case, in stainless steel, measures 46mm. It has an AR-coated sapphire crystal and is water resistant to 200 meters. The new Chronospace Automatic is available with a choice of four dial colors – Volcano Black, Mariner Blue, Tungsten Gray and Stratus Silver – enhanced by black totalizers.”

What really caught me is that they did not skimp on any details nor did they make a mistake by adding that chain link band.  Beautiful and dashing!

Cloud 10 Status: Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Traditionelle World Time


REAL GLOBE TROTTERS really should be the only ones viewing this particular blog post.  Peasants and wanna be ballers like myself we should just focus on the Timex, Citizen and Bulova's of the world because this bad boy here!  This Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Traditionelle World Time Watch  (I DARE YOU TO CLICK THAT LINK TO SEE THE SCHEMATICS OF THIS WATCH) the one pretentious enough to have an entire sentence as its name is really out of this world. 

"The watch can not only tell the time in multiple time zones across the globe, but can simultaneously display all 37 of them, even the countries who have a half-hour or quarter-hour time difference."  It goes without saying any watch that lists the international destinations that many of us can only dream of visiting is just straight DYLAN (Hot Fiyah)

Price not even considered to be mention so just imagine a number with several commas in it...

Cloud 10 Status: Hermes Carre H


Dear Hermes, I see your artisans and fine designers are still being GREAT!! This watch is all a refined gentlemen could ask for lets see. 1) Leather strap; 2) Gun metal gray color 3) subdued square face; 4) indestructible titanium.  Yeah that's a check list for a GREAT TIMEPIECE!!

According to AcquireMag "Hermes worked with designer and architect Marc Berthier on the limited edition (173 piece) Carre H ($15,000). The design is both beautifully contemporary and classic with its curvy, gunmetal colored titanium case and its elegantly detailed dial. Inside the watch houses a Sowind/Girard-Perregaux movement with a power reserve of 44 hours."

The Sartorialist Files: Kenneth Cole Touch Screen Watches


Kenneth Cole has just upped the ante, not just by creating a touchscreen watch (for all us touchscreen junkies out there TOUCHSCREEN is taking over) but for the price.  These bad boys range between $125-$175 (if you get the enamel coated band if not you will have to settle for rubber). 

According to Uncrate.com "its touch screen to provide a clutter-free, minimalistic design, with a stainless steel round case sporting only one button at the two o'clock position, 32-city world time, a chronograph, an electro luminescent backlight and its waterproof!!"

Click after the Jump to see the watch in the other colors available!!

Cloud 10 Status: Wood Shock Watches


G-Shock has been holding down the mid-range watch game for a long-time. As I sit here and type this blog I am rocking my own G-Shock with pride (there is a long story about how I came into owning this piece but that's neither here nor there) and glad to write this post. I must state that these watches are not G-Shock released products. The Wood Shock (W-Shock) are a joint collaboration between PRPLMNT and Saint48 to introduce use to these wood bezel watches. They come in red and black while delivering a nice alternative to those metal/rubber based watches we are used to seeing.

Cloud 10 Status: Hublot “Liberty” Bullets by the Confrérie Horlogère


I am still confused as to how this is a watch (unless its a timepiece) but anyway it looks cool as hell. Its probably one of those things you need to see in person and have demonstrated for you in order to understand the magnitude of its awesomeness. So, until someone can come back with some user feedback let us pretend that we know how it works and remark at its coolness.


According to Hypebeast: "The Confrérie Horlogère division of Hublot represents the watchmaker’s efforts to push the boundaries of watch design and engineering. Among their latest feats is the Liberty Bullets time piece. The watch features a Tourbillion design as well as the ability to be worn both as a bracelet, pendant or simple pocket watch. The watch’s body is a combination of a titanium tip and black aluminium base."

Nice

P.S. I will tell you what I thought these were at first but this is a kid friendly show and my mom reads the blog sometimes...#dirtythoughts

Cloud 10 Status: Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M White Dial Diver Watch


The Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M White Dial Diver Watch is one clean watch. I know its probably out of most of our reasonable price range (without taking a second mortgage on our house) but man if this isn't one of the most precise, clean watches I've seen in a while. Just look at it white band, white hands and surgical silver steel. It exudes cool and class! Yeah buddy this is a watch's watch.


According to Selectism "“This year OMEGA presents its white version of the Ploprof. It has all of the features professional divers have come to expect from OMEGA: a white bi-directional locking bezel with chrome-coated Arabic numerals, an automatic helium escape valve and water resistance to 1200 metres (4000 feet, 120 bar). The watch, with its timeless white bezel and dial, is presented with either a white rubber strap or a brushed mesh ‘Sharkproof’ bracelet… The Ploprof’s case cannot be mistaken for that of any other watch: the screwed-in crown is located at 9 o’clock under a protective buffer. Its unique positioning allows freer wrist movement and prevents any inadvertent manipulation.”
