Reliable Independents, Hard Falls, And What To Be Rockin' When The Reaper Comes A-Knockin'
Seiko introduces three new dial variants to its higher-end King Seiko models. These are last year’s SJE089/SJE091 under the hood but with fancy new dial textures and Tag Heuer Formula 1 colors. This pushes them a bit further away from their austere 1965 KSK ancestor and into modern territories.The reason for this was relatively simple: it's a watch I bought to mark my 30th birthday (even though I got it when I was 29).Starting from the wearer's perspective, he tries to design the most user-friendly watch possible.I needed to support him in pursuing the ultimaContrary to what the title of this article may imply, independent watchmaking is nothing new.The standout on this watch for me is the dial. You need only look at the caseback to see where its design originated. Printed over the exhibition sapphire crystal – which gives way to the Omega Co-Axial in-house caliber 8801 in 38mm and 8901 in 41mm– is the Tokyo 2020 logo, complete with a specially designed emblem made up of asymmetrical squares and rectangles.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.
Raymond Weil also offers a cleaner version with a central seconds hand, but it's this Small Seconds version that wins it for me.As this is only a Strap Check, I repliky Rolex won't be retreading Rob's steps, as for the most part, I echo his thoughts.While Girard-Perregaux is known for its mastery of technical horology, the introduction of the 2020 Infinity Editions shows a side of the manufacturer that eschews high complications and next-generation materials in favor of restraint and simplicity. The Infinity Editions include interpretations of historic Girard-Perregaux references from 1945 and 1966. We'll be taking a look at the Vintage 1945 Infinity Edition, a watch inspired by a reference from, you guessed it, 1945.The last thing that had to be sorted was the bracelet which, unlike a watch from Rolex or AP that could easily have its links removed, required more effort to be sized. The bracelet had to be sized overnight after hours, cutting links until it was perfect for its new owner to wear at the Oscars less than a week later. The rest, as they say, is history.
Originally released in December 2021, the Five In A Row X BOLDR Venture was made for the Scottish rowing team, which took part Rolex Lady-Datejust in the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge (TWAC).Everything about it contrasts with what I am used to in watches, from the slanted display to the oddly shaped case and even the bracelet.For one of its latest works, a limited edition of 178 pieces, a collective specializing in architecture and design was called upon.Naturally, I would choose a light dial color to contrast the black dial of the one I already own.Some watch observers claim that the 100%-plus premiums over the retail price paid for new steel Nautilus watches on the secondary market amounts to a bubble. It's a safe bet that Patek's product development strategy does not call for the company's signature product – gold Calatravas – to be eclipsed by its less expensive steel sports watch. The fact that the Nautilus does, critics argue, is a warning sign of something amiss in the Patek Philippe market.I do think that the dials are a bit too minimal. Something about the "Must de" text on the older models felt right, and would have looked right at home on these pieces. Another distraction was the length of the minute hand. It just feels shorter than it should be and adds further complexity to the act of telling the time. To round out my list of nit picks: The name Must de Cartier feels special. Tank Must sounds like an incomplete sentence.
