About Me
The Seiko Prospex (standing for Professional Specifications) are notorious for being some of the best tool watches around, with the collection including two dozen serious divers resistant from 200m Réplicas Richard Mille rm 055 to 1,000m deep. Among those are the Turtle worn and loved by Jack, a staple for Seiko since the launch of the reference 6309 40 years ago, and the short-lived Samurai which was only produced from 2004 to 2008.As with the original Portugieser watches, this watch is properly scaled to the movement inside. The caliber 59215 is, again, a 37.8mm (17 ligne) movement, so it fills the caseback of the Hand-Wound, showing no spacer or dead zone when viewed through the massive sapphire window on the rear of the watch. As far as the architecture goes, the movement isn't really related to the original pocketwatch calibers used in the first Portugieser, but the identical dimensions are a happy accident anyway.In 2003, my dad took a pair of old sneakers, boxed them up, and gave them to my mom for Christmas. Upon opening her present, she asked (in his words), "What is wrong with you?" and he replied that she wasn't looking hard enough. Swaddled in a sock and stuffed into the very tip toe of one of the old shoes was a Rolex Yacht-Master ref. 168622, a gift he justified by explaining that the beautiful, teeny-tiny Datejust would be passed on to me when I graduated from college.Back in 2020, Breitling launched the Navitimer Automatic 35. As Cara explained in her review of this earlier model, "Breitling has been and always will be a consumer-focused manufacturer," their mission is clearly to expand on an existing idea in line with current market trends and make it fit as many consumers as possible. This watch is marketed to women but fits the new demand for smaller size everything by male watch enthusiasts too.
For the look of this watch, Tsao aimed to bridge consistency in design with versatility, all inside an everyday-ready package: "I wouldn't say I'm like that fancy kind of guy that would wear a fancy type of watch, but rather something that I would be comfortable wearing in any type of atmosphere." Another design flourish is the use of what's called "old radium" for the lume, which is actually just C3 Swiss Super-LumiNova with an old radium look.Sure, vintage-adjacent watchmaking is a powerful force in modern watch design, and I don't see that changing any time soon. But as the financial crisis continues to fade into the past, I suspect – as some readers pointed out in the comments in the Point/Counterpoint series – that we'll see that as more of a swing of the pendulum rather than a never-changing feature of the watch Replica Richard Mille rm 032 world.As the name suggests, the Bulgari Aluminium GMT features a GMT reference time indicator. While keeping the iconic details such as the aluminum case, Bulgari added a modern and practical home-time and local-time display feature to the model.The official announcement states that Rolex has created a new subsidiary, Tudor Watch USA, LLC, and the launch date is currently slated for late summer of this year! It goes on to say that Tudor will be supported with advertising on a national and regional basis with a selective distribution base that has been chosen for the launch, and it will be helmed nationally by Mr. Russell Kelly.I mentioned up top that the watch went through nearly 40 years or so with simple painted dials. And then things changed. The matte dial Explorers of old were revamped with the 14270, featuring a black gloss dial display complete with the most drastic change of all: The applied numerals (with white gold surrounds). It's not just that they were applied, but that they took a particular modern shape, and by virtue of the precious metal, catapulted this watch into a different category.In 1988 Zenith, with the help of Charles Vermont, in what must be the greatest story in watch history, brought their El Primero movement to the Daytona. The collaboration was a success anThose days are long gone, replaced by waiting lists that last several years or the aftermarket where watches sell at multiple times the retail price. If you do go this route we recommend you buy from a trusted seller - wink, wink.
This brings us to the reference 3448, manufactured between 1962 and 1981. So, why was the 3448 different? Well, most importantly, it was the very first automatic perpetual calendar by Patek Philippe. The 3448 is powered by the caliber 27-460 Q, a modified version of the caliber 27-460 (an automatic movement without perpetual calendar). The 27-460 Q featured a yellow gold rotor, had a 38-hour power reserve, and was known for being incredibly efficient.With his new ICON Duesey, which is limited to 50 numbered pieces, Ward has tapped into his love of a great American automobile, the Duesenberg SJ, whose black dash and mechanical-digital displays has a futuristic look for the time it was produced.The dial layout evokes the Seamster 300s of old. The Seamaster wordmark has moved from the top of the dial to the bottom so as to read Seamaster 300. In doing so, Omega was able to clean up and simplify the dial. On the previous version, text indicated the chronometer rating and co-axial movement – all of that has been shipped to Repliche Richard Mille the caseback.We were cruising across this landscape at about 400 knots, and there's no talking, it's silent, but you're absorbing such a picture. Such a moment of beauty, grandeur, speed, power; you've got everything you ever wanted to do as a kid, you are now actually doing it with your hand on the stick. And you're overwhelmed with the whole enormity of the moment.So I opened up Photoshop took a color sampler to the dial of the new Chronomaster Sport. While the Jets use "Gotham Green" which plays out to an RGB mix of (18, 87, 64), the Packers use what they just call "Dark Green" which is RGB (24, 48, 40). Well, judging by my samples, the watch seems to land closest to the Jets' green of choice with (3, 76, 47) on the darker parts of the dial and (46, 91, 60) on the lighter parts of the bezel. J-E-T... no I can't do it. The cheesehead in me hurts too much.
