Haute Time Meets For Breakfast At The Four Seasons NYC With Zenith CEO Jean-Frederic Dufour

Upon returning from Basel World 2012, Haute Time had the opportunity to meet with Zenith CEO Jean-Frederic Dufour for a breakfast at the Four Seasons in New York City. Dufour has been with Zenith since 2009 and implementing innovative new ideas with the company. Zenith recently put out its new Pilot Collection and while Zenith has been creating aviation timepieces since the first days of flight, Dufour believes it is important to honor and see through that strong legacy. In part of the new collection, Zenith created a limited edition 58mm watch in titanium (250 pieces) and gold (70 pieces). Arnold READ MORE

Alain Delon’s Vintage Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo Sells For €68,750

  A vintage Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo once belonging to French Actor Alain Delon sold for a record price of €68,750. The sale price is even more spectacular when taken into consideration that Delon’s Royal Oak Jumbo doesn’t have the dial with the AP logo at 6 o’clock, which the new Jumbo does have. The auctioneers website also didn’t mention whether the vintage timepiece is an A-series for one of the later B, C or D-series. Last month, a sought-after A-series with 6 o’clock dial from 1972 sold for the absolute record price of €31,200—that is, until Delon’s watch came along. Delon READ MORE

  The all-new Girard-Perregaux 1966 Chronograph 42 mm has new proportions, guaranteed performance, perfect readability, a 42 mm case to make room for shorter time period measurements, and a new dial that further enhances the timepiece’s functionality. The Girard-Perregaux 1966 has established itself as one of the brand’s icons, and the larger diameter was designed in response to client demands. Although the size of the case has increased, the piece maintains its pure lines, curve and horns that are carefully designed to hug the wrist. The silver-plated dial proposes the date at 6 o’clock, and with an elegant central second READ MORE
