SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

Watch-Related Valentine's Gifts For Our Colleagues

The genius of this watch boils down to its indicator at six o'clock, which shows whether the chronograph is engaged or not. You get a yellow dot when the repliky jaeger lecoultre hodinky chronograph is on, and a black one when it is inactive. Breitling heavily modified the Venus 188 movement so that it would offer this "slow counter" and only measure the elapsed minutes in the clearest way possible for its users, for which it was a matter of life and death.This watch is all about looks and beauty, the movement is great and is in-house, but for me it's more about the unusualness of the dial display. It isn't often that you see an eccentric sub-dial done well (the Lange 1 being the best example of this in my opinion), so it is refreshing to see Hermès tackle this one. In my opinion they did a great job incorporating this design feature into one of their most successful collections to date.This deep and detailed piece, written by Cole Pennington, originally appeared in HODINKEE Magazine Vol. 5. There is also an accompanying recorded reading of the story (by Cole, himself) that I highly recommend you listen to. This is a thorough and fascinating look at a forgotten piece of Cold War history and the role a very special watch played in it all.Through the display caseback, Gagà Laboratorio shows off their movement: a La Joux-Perret LJP–G100 movement (modified, of course, to offer the disc display). The rotor for the movement has been creatively modified to evoke the Gagà Laboratorio logo. But this is also, unfortunately, where my experience with the watch started to fall apart.Rather than a beautifully executed dial, we have none. In its place are the movement components you would expect to see when viewing through a sapphire caseback. It's an effort to showcase what else the brand does well outside of dial work – meticulously crafted movement components. The end result is now the best men's watch of 2024.It's not something most of us think about on a daily basis, but most watches are basically useless for the visually impaired. Traditionally, the solution to this was to make watches with crystals that could flip up, allowing the wearer to feel the hands. These tended to be poorly made and touching the hands is a really good way to throw a watch off over time. But there are more creative solutions out there. Meet the Dot, a sleek motorized smartwatch that uses braille to give the wearer the time.

Outro fator a ser considerado é a adaptação dos nossos olhos à luz. Quando estamos em ambientes com pouca luz, nossos olhos se ajustam, aumentando a sensibilidade à luz. Isso significa que, ao olhar para o lume de lado, podemos perceber uma maior intensidade devido a essa adaptação. Além disso, o contraste entre o lume e o fundo do mostrador também pode influenciar nossa percepção. Um mostrador escuro em combinação com um lume brilhante pode criar falske iwc klokker um efeito visual mais impactante quando visto de um ângulo diferente.This week, Bring A Loupe offers a wide selection of vintage pieces – all outstanding watches with their own merits. You will find a sensational dive watch from Longines, a dress watch from Vacheron Constantin, and a chronograph from Heuer – and it doesn't stop there. This is your Bring A Loupe for May 27, 2016.Our final outside contender comes from the Swiss-made, German-born house of Montblanc, which relies on the chronograph maestros at the erstwhile Minerva headquarters in Villeret for its multitude of split-seconds offerings. We've seen a number of rattrapante releases from Montblanc in recent years, all executed in a very traditional technical manner, with a single pusher and a gorgeous hand-decorated manually wound movement.Yang's is an earnest collection, one many readers will relate to. I know I did. The only difference is that while many of us have let our first watches slip away, Yang has managed to hang onto his earliest pieces, including an anime tribute to Dragon Ball Z from his Hong Kong childhood. Join us for the watches and stay for the laughs. This is your Talking Watches with Jimmy O. Yang.IWC is back with another U.S. Naval aviator squadron watch, this time with the Strike Fighter Squadron 41 (VFA-41), also known as the "Black Aces," based at Naval Air Station Lemoore in California. And for the first time in a production IWC pilot's watch, the new Pilot's Watch Automatic 41 Black Aces has a fully lumed dial with hands to match.

The Super 8 is, of course, not a stopwatch (neither countdown nor conventional) but it does duplicate the size, placement of the crown, and bezel of the ref. 637 and you can use the red triangle (also a feature of the original) for elapsed timing purposes. It's a behemoth – the bezel is 50mm, edge to edge, which is pretty close to the distance across my entire wrist.However, the fact remains that it's craft in movement finishing which has been one of the fundamental distinguishing features of fine watchmaking, historically speaking. The various decorative and semi-functional finishing techniques have always been a basic part of what one expected from a better watch, and it is one of the great ironies of watchmaking that when wristwatch movement finishing was at its peak qualitatively, the vast majority of the best work was hidden behind solid casebacks.At SIHH it's easy to get stuck in a pattern of looking exclusively into glass vitrines and at the wrists of passers-by. However, look up and you'll notice that in addition Replica breitling watches to a lot of great watches there are some pretty stylish people walking around too. Here we highlighted a few of our favorite watch/look combos.Check out the full story here.Racquet is a young, tennis-focused media company with a flagship quarterly print magazine that has absolutely turned the world of tennis editorial on its head. Founded by publisher Caitlin Thompson and editor David Shaftel in 2016, the company's detail-focused and design-driven approach to storytelling quickly caught the attention of our team and we've been fans ever since.But the Royal Oak is an icon for a reason. The desirability and pop-culture relevance of the model won't be dying out anytime soon. As we move further out from the brand's 50th anniversary, and as Audemars Piguet continues to grow and develop its range, I think it will be increasingly interesting to see how much of the collector sphere and larger marketplace remains laser-focused on the Royal Oak.
