The mere mention of Omega Speedmaster Racing chronometer evokes the image of Michael Schumacher
Today, Speedmaster became a powerful brand with more than 50 years of proven history. Famous models of the Speedmaster series are the Collection of legend Speedmaster, Speedmaster Day-Date, Speedmaster Broad Arrow and ladies Speedmaster. The mere mention of Omega Speedmaster Racing chronometer evokes the image of Michael Schumacher, posing with his famous victorious smile.
Alexander Shorokoff Chronograph Kostya Tszyu Watch
I haven't spent much time covering this (Russian named) German brand, but they do make some cool stuff. This piece is a limited edition while a bit more mainstream with some interesting design cues. Yes, that bezel design is from a Vacheron Constantin Overseas. Alexander Shorokoff made this watch in honor of Russian champion boxer Kostya Tszyu and the piece has his name and silhouette all over it.Tszyu is another person on my list of "people I don't want to meet in a dark alley alone" but I have a feeling if you did run into him, it would help you out by wearing a watch with his name
Ludovic Ballouard Upside-Down Watch
His English is bad and my French is non-existent, so we talked about what any two nerds discuss: Model airplanes. What little I knew about Ludovic Ballouard is that he was a watchmaker who recently started his own brand, and that he liked to build small planes.

URWERK Black Cobra Watch: Can Comics Sell Luxury Watches?
While it is hard to give proper credit, Linde Werdelin is the first luxury watch brand that I know of that employed the use of comics (ahem, graphic novels) to sell high-end timepieces. They still do that, and certainly are going to carry that idea into the future. UPDATE: I just learned that I had it wrong. Linde Werdelin might have been the first to disseminate marketing comic imagery online (that I know of), but Urwerk had published comic content as far back as 2008 (republished here - thanks Ian).Now luxury brand Urwerk offers a new comic strip (see below to check it out). I think
Longines Saint-Imier Chronograph Watch Review
This past May, Longines invited us to attend the 139th Running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville. In typical Derby fashion, it was all fancy hats, mint juleps, beautiful horses, and fast women. It was an epic weekend, and we?¡¥re just now sobering up enough to tell you about it. Seriously, have you ever had a mint julep? For breakfast? They know how to do it right in Kentucky.Longines has a long history of equestrian connection, and their timepieces have been used since the late 1800s (!!) for timing racing events. That connection is alive and well today, an
