Parmigiani Fleurier has had a long standing relationship with supercar maker Bugatti. Some of the watches produced as part of this relationship are unique, for instance, the exclusive and pricey Parmigiani Supersport driving watch. However, Parmigiani also makes other "Bugatti" watches that are ...
Bulova's Accu-Swiss Bellecombe is a new collection that was introduced in 2014 and for this year has some new options, including the Accus-Swiss Bellecombe ref. 65R164, which, in my opinion, is a really nice mixture of style and value when looking for a solid lady's timepiece. The Accu-Swiss ...
