It's Time To Upgrade Your Horological Library
While the bulk of time-only Zeniths never been ultra-desirable, or tremendously exciting in any notable sense, I've always been a fan. This admiration can be attributed to the movements hodinky Richard Mille Super Clone found beneath their casebacks, the architecture of which I've always appreciated. I'm no expert in the field of micro mechanics, but I know a good looking movement when I see one, and if you'd like to as well, do yourself a favor and focus in on this one.Today, enthusiasts debate the real purpose of wearing watches. Beyond displaying the time, serving as fashion accessories or social statements, or giving us the pleasure of operating fine mechanical instruments, watches connect us with people or things that we enjoy, perhaps our heroes or our history. Watches can also provide a sense of escape, from the here and now to a memorable era.I really, really enjoy the funky, chunky sport watches that were born from the 1970s to the mid-'80s. I've asked Saori, Rich, and Sean on our vintage team to be on constant lookout for an extra-minty Heuer Kentucky. Or the Mark II Speedmaster. But what I've really been bugging them about is a 1970s vintage Zenith Defy with a ladder bracelet.But make no mistake, the 1500 is a big case, bigger than I would likely need, given my personal collection of 10 to 12 watches. Measuring 18.5 inches wide, 14.06 inches deep, and 6.93 inches thick, it's the size of a large laptop bag and, as you'll see below, can quickly be set upThe plus of the larger size and considerable thickness is that you have more space for activities! Want 24 watches with space under each for a strap or a rolled-up NATO? Go for it. Want to do 16 watches and space for toThe plus of the larger size and considerable thickness is that you have more space for activities! Want 24 watches with space under each for a strap or a rolled-up NATO? Go for it. Want to do 16 watches and space for tools and straps, you can do that, too! All you need is a bit of planning, a box of toothpicks, and a knife that's long enough to go all the way through the central block of foam.In this exclusive video interview, Jon Bues visits the French factory where Tudor's woven straps are made, and talks with fifth-generation owner Julien Faure about how they create what may just be the finest fabric watch straps in the world.For models fitted with what Rolex calls old-generation material or when components are damaged, a replacement with "new-generation" material or components is offered to the customer during what's called a vintage service.
The other problem is the change in oil volume with temperature. The solution here is as ingenious as the magnet system. The Réplicas Richard Mille rm 005 titanium membrane between the two chambers sits on a semicircular disk that holds an arrangement of minute bellows. A valve system allows oil from the upper chamber to alternately fill or empty the chamber in which each bellows sits, as the volume of oil rises and falls with temperature changes.Caliber: In-House Caliber L021.1Functions: Hours, minutes, seconds, day of the week, dateDiameter: 31.6mmThickness: 6.1mmPower Reserve: 50 hoursWinding: AutomaticFrequency: 3 Hz (21,600 vph)Jewels: 67 (7 in screwed gold chatons)Additional Details: Plates and bridges are crafted from untreated German silverFollowing the successful launch of their classically-minded, hand-wound Marlin, Timex has just announced a new Marlin Automatic line. Carrying a simple and inoffensive styling, these new automatics are 40mm wide, have a date function at three, a lovely domed mineral glass crystal, and a steadfast '60s-derived design that leverages a common aesthetic that has never really been out of style.Origin story: A lifelong tinkerer, Lass fell into watches after flipping through a university course catalog while studying mechanical engineering in Copenhagen. One day at the local library, he rescued a copy of George Daniels' book Watchmaking from the throwaway bin – and before long, he was enrolled at the one watchmaking school in all of Denmark.During my time with this one, I was partial to the green leather strap, though the NATO will certainly bolster its tool-watchiness. Not many brands can pull a design like this from its archives and make it work in the modern context. Do I wish it was 40mm? You bet I do, but the Majetek still works at 43 and was a joy to have on wrist, even if just for a short time.
Virtually everyoneThere was a period Hida collected several watches equipped with a micro-rotor, and an example of such pieces is this Universal Genève Polerouter. The manufacturer commissioned Gérald Genta to design a watch to commemorate the launch of Scandinavian Airlines' direct flights from New York/Los Angeles to European replica Richard Mille rm 055 destinations. The watch featured antimagnetic properties, which was uncommon back then.If you want to find fault with this watch, you certainly can. The numerals being painted on rather than applied won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but the juxtaposition of flat numerals against the guilloché detailing and Water of Ayr graining, creates an interesting balance of textures and adds a touch of irreverence. It’s the kind of thing that people love about Massena LAB’s collabs, and makes this limited-edition likely to sell out as quickly as their previous ones have.I began consuming watch content again, reading HODINKEE, and dreaming of my next acquisition. I wore the Batman less. It felt strange walking around wearing something so expensive. But every time I thought about selling it, I would look at it and remember the experience of buying it with my dad. There was that, and the fact that I still just loved it – pretty much every aspect of it.The Bulova Watchmaking School was founded in 1945 by Joseph’s son Arde to help train returning GIs and while Arde did not serve in World War II, his brother Harry D. Henshel did. It’s here that the connection to General Bradley can be seen; Henshel served as an officer in the First Army directly under Bradley and it was Henshel who invited Bradley to observe the Watchmaking School.
