The democratization of watch enthusiasm is something we are keen to promote on a regular basis. As you can imagine aBlogtoWatch receives a lot of questions each week and we do our best to answer the salient ones in our Ask Us Anything section.

Jaquet Droz The Charming Bird Automaton Watch Sings And Dances
Museum objects produced by Jaquet Droz and his contemporaries (seen here) in the 18th century often take the form of automaton birds geared to emulate in eerie detail actual birds complete with movement and sound. Bird songs were produced by moving a piston style tube in and out of a shaft rapidly. A small air hole would whistle, sounding remarkably like a real bird. The mechanical bird figurines were designed to often have moving heads, wings, and even beaks. These machines were often parts of ornate clocks.For the first time ever, Jaquet Droz has produced a miniature automaton bird

Of which, there are actually going to be only a few. There will be the pictured two-tone model in steel and rose gold, a white gold model, an all steel model, and a all rose gold model. This is arguably a more marketable model than the GMT given the more conservative and "Omega" looks of this watch. The GMT had a controversial bezel, while the smooth polished bezel of this Aqua Terra Chronograph is m

It is indeed a small world. I'd like to share with you a charity auction featuring a Girard-Perregaux timepiece which is connected to my family (the charity not the watch). Girard-Perregaux has donated a new 1966 Automatic 41mm watch (new for 2012) that is currently being auctioned-off in support of the University Kidney Research Organization (UKRO).The UKRO was started by a close relative of mine to research diseases of the kidneys.
