Why Aren't There More Mechanical Women's Watches? - Ask Watch Experts Questions About Watches
Caroline S. from San Diego, California asks:Why are so many ladies’ watches made with quartz movements? I love automatic watches but many of the designs I like are available in with quartz movements only. Is it just a size thing? Can they not make small watches with automatic movements? Or do watch companies think that women care only about looks and not about the mechanics of a watch?That is a really good question and one that we hear a lot. There is really no simple answer but it is a combination of market reality and economics. While there are many mechanical watch loving women, mo
Who Uses High-End Dive Watches To Actually Dive? - Ask Watch Experts Questions About Watches
Keith S. from Colorado, USA asks: In your estimation how many high-end dive watches get many actual, daily use miles in true ocean environments? How do they fare? My perceptions lead me to believe that regular divers wouldn’t rock a $12K Clerc Hydroscaph to the “office” each day. I am friends with a former full-time scuba instructor, and from the income they earn are more likely to wear a Seiko Orange Monster (or even cheaper brand) since dive computers handle the work dive watches used to.Are high end dive watches simply status symbols? I have no doubt they are fin
Pebble E-Paper Watch For iPhone And Android: Review
Pebble watch showing off one of the very readable watch faces.I first held a Pebble watch in my hands in January. I've had it on and off my wrist since March. Since that time, it's undergone considerable refinement in how it behaves as a smartwatch. But is it a good watch?Smartwatches have been around for decades, especially if we include the earliest Pulsar calculator and Casio Databank watches. The Casio Databank has a calculator, appointments, contact name, address and phone numbers. It?¡¥s almost a proto-PDA. Then we actually got wrist PDAs that ran PalmOS from Fossil. Microsoft and
Memoirs Of A Watchmaker: Coming Of Age With Horology
I came of age in the 1960?¡¥s and 1970?¡¥s in New England. If you asked most of my schoolmates back then what they wanted to be when they grew up, most would have said a fireman, policeman, cowboy, politician, lawyer, doctor, teacher, sailor?-. just about anything but a watchmaker. The average age of watchmakers in the 1960?¡¥s and 1970?¡¥s was around 50 years old, and it seemed, at least in the United States, to be a dying breed, perhaps even an endangered species. Americans didn?¡¥t value watchmakers as highly skilled technicians, as they did in Switzerland and other European communities, they
Montblanc TimeWriter 1 Metamorphosis Watch Transforms
There was a lot of excitement at Montblanc in Geneva for this watch. They only had one of them?at SIHH and it was in a case. Still a prototype but I got to check it out a bit. In a nutshell, you press down on a lever on the left side of the case and the watch dial magically transforms into something else. Not only does the look change, but more importantly the functions do as well. One face shows the time (regulator style with?retrograde minutes) and the date, while the second style is a chronograph.In the included video you can wait through most of it or skip ahead near the end when
