First Look At Rocker Dan Spitz's Jeanrichard Aeroscope Limited Edition Watch
Toward the end of 2014, Jeanrichard will announce a limited edition watch produced in collaboration with rock-and-roller Dan Spitz. On his Facebook page today, Spitz previewed the prototype of the upcoming model that will be based on the Jeanrichard Aeroscope timepiece. Dan was wearing it on his wrist presumably at the pool in his Florida home. We know that Dan has been looking to partner with a watch brand for quite sometime. What makes Spitz a bit different from your average watch-loving musician is that he himself is a watchmaker.Now, 51-year-old Dan Spitz took a break from music i

Casio G-Shock Baby-G Watch With Breathalyzer For Vodka Maker (Update: Fake)
UPDATE: Apparently this is not real. Casio has reached out to let me know that someone Photoshopped this fake watch, but for amusement you can read a "watch if" below.

Consider me such a fan, and I have a feeling that Mr. Mille falls into this same camp. At SIHH 2013 my enduring image of him is sitting in a chair and speaking energetically with his hands.

On the one hand you have a rather fragile tourbil

RGM 801 Aircraft Watch
eBay to the rescue again. I swear, I have so many conversations with watch executives and designers that end with "and I got it on eBay." A lot of brands use vintage watches and instruments as the basis for new timepieces - a least from a design perspective.

RGM for instance picked up a couple of these cool WWII era cockpit clocks online originally made by Hamilton, and decided to make a watch based on the theme.
