Zenith recently suffered a new direction, and it may be one of the first models to the stem of this change.
As expected, this is yet another model of watches "vintage" of a popular luxury Swiss brand of watches (this is a coincidence of French-owned). Zenith recently suffered a new direction, and it may be one of the first models to the stem of this change. There are great hopes for the brand which has been during the past few years, interesting, but incorruptible watches that have no soul or clear purpose. This new model is certainly a change, but I do not think that it is for the better.
bold limited-edition timepiece represents the third series in Concord¡¯s exploration
This bold limited-edition timepiece represents the third series in Concord's exploration of the tourbillon. Three tourbillons are in action here, each rotating at different speeds to perform distinct gravity-defying functions. Two of them are nested one inside the other while the third tourbillon carriage rotates a separate balance on a single axis in the conventional way, but at the relatively high speed of one revolution every 36 seconds. The hours and minutes are shown on discs rotating against their respective markers, and the seconds appear on a scale around the bi-axial tourbillon. Sapphire and citrine gemstones are used to indicate the power reserve. Eleven color-graded blue sapphires from dark to pale show the power left in the mainspring. When the six yellow citrines appear against the marker, the wearer knows it's time to wind up the watch.
IWC Aquatimer Watches New For 2014
The "new way" at IWC is to make each year themed. Last year was the year of the Ingenieur while the year before that was year of the pilot watch. 2014 at IWC will be the year of the Aquatimer, so expect to see a fully re-launched collection of some of the nicest high-end tool watches around. Actually, before we move on to discuss a preview of the 2014 Aquatimer watches I want to clarify my previous statement. While for the most part IWC shows the media only pieces of a specific family (i.e. Aquatimer), it isn't true that they don't release other new models. Those merely wait until late
Roger Smith GREAT Britain Watch Specially Made For Prime Minister David Cameron
One of our favorite English watchmakers Roger Smith (Roger W. Smith) just announced that he has completed a watch commissioned by the British government for Prime Minister David Cameron's Legacy to the 2012 Olympics. Called the GREAT Britain, this is the latest in Roger Smith's series of bespoke timepieces produced on a made-to-order basis. The watch was commissioned by Conrad Bird, the Prime Minister's Director of Communications in 2012. Why? It was part of the Prime Minister's 2012 Olympic Games Legacy. Is Roger Smith late in delivering the watch at the end of 2013? No, in fact he is
Hamilton Khaki X-Patrol Watch
Ah, now here is a slide-rule bezel complication that I can use. I tend to make fun of these as I am not about to do long-division or calculate fuel consumption on a tiny slide-rule, if I need to figure that stuff out at all... But this one is actually handy. This new watch for 2012 from Hamilton is the Khaki X-Patrol and it has a metric to imperial conversion scale. That would prove useful as I often travel to Europe and having no idea how far things are and how much things weigh. I am such a proud American. It isn't going to replace a calculator, but in comparison to most slide-rule b
