Hands-On: Vintage Cartier Watches From Harry Fane Exhibition At Dover Street Market Los Angeles, Now Through February 19th
Running now through February 19th at Dover Street Market here in Los Angeles' Arts District is an unexpected and totally captivating vintage Cartier exhibition by Harry Fane, who is a British collector, gallerist, and Cartier expert. Dover Street Market is a large retail space that sells brands like Comme des Gar?ons (whose founder, Rei Kawakubo, opened the multi-city space) and Maison Margiela. I love that Fane chose such a compelling venue that doesn't fall into the usual Beverly Hills spots, which can get pretty stale and a bit obvious. The exhibit is a collection of 36 important vintage Cartier watches and, while there is a focus on the Tank, there are several other vintage Cartier pieces, as well. The watches exhibited include several Tank Normale (which was the first Tank), several Cintree pieces, a Cartier Reverso, a Cartier/Piaget Tank, and others that I'll discuss here.

Prometheus Manta Ray Watch Review
Up to now the Manta Ray is the most impressive watch Prometheus has released in terms of features and hardiness. I’ve reviewed other Prometheus watches here on aBlogtoRead.com and really like where the brand is going.

The Manta Ray is their new flagship diver watch and certainly looks it.Anyone picking up a Manta Ray will no doubt notice the watch’s impressive heft. The large 44.50mm wide case is thick with very broad lugs. It sits tall on the wrist and very much looks like an instrument. The cases looks both modern and retro with its brushed surfaces and angular edging. Large screws line the side of the steel bracelet adding to the piece’s technical feel. This is really not a watch for the feint of heart, and I love that fact.
