Here is a shot of the new Ball Engineer Master II Diver that has a black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon). This is a dive watch, but the coolest feature is the mechanical thermometer that reads Fahrenheit and celsius. They used tritium tubes in the watch dial and the rotating inner bezel for excellent illumination. There are 2006 Limited Editions available worldwide for $3,299.

The new Chanel J12 GMT with a black ceramic case has a nice 42 mm wide and 10 mm thick. Chanel claims that is unscratchable and stain-resistant. I have never had a problem with stains on any watch, but scratches are a different story. I do find it hard to believe that they made this ceramic material unscratchable and I would definitely have to see it to believe it.

Richard Mille makes some really nice timepieces and the RM 012 pictured here is another fine example. This version was limited to only 30 editions. The watch is made of a special alloy that includes aluminum, magnesium, titanium and silicone. This alloy is highly resistant to corrosion and wear and is very good at absorbing vibrations. Too bad this watch probably costs more than most cars.

In keeping with its long tradition of philanthropy, the Le Brassus manufactory has joined forces with the Foundation established by the former American President and to mark the occasion is launching an exclusive collection.
With its declared aim of helping the world to move beyond the current trend of globalisation in order to recreate a mutually dependent international community that shares profits, responsibility and values, the Clinton Foundation can now count on a new supporter of stature: Audemars Piguet. Their partnership was unveiled to the press on 10 October this year in New York, in the presence notably of Bill Clinton and Georges-Henri Meylan, the Managing Director of the Le Brassus based firm. On this occasion, Audemars Piguet launched an exclusive collection named Equation du temps Fondation Clinton, a large part of the profits from which will be paid to the foundation of the former American President of the United States.
