People who have Rolex watches tell me that there's no feeling like looking down at your link wrist and reading that mega-iconic word and I have no reason to doubt them. But I have to say after immersing myself in Glashütte lore it was link no small thrill to look down at the white script with its insouciant H link on that green dégradé dial and to let my chest puff up at thoughts of this brand's own impressive lineage.

On the wrist the watch wears basically true to size if not slightly smaller due to the black dial. The link triangular hour markers are another nice detail with the markers at 12 three and nine being larger than the others. The circular painted minute markers in link white link on the interior of the dial allow the shorter Alpha hands to reach every marking on the watch. Overall despite the inclusion of the date window the watch maintains a nice balance and symmetry.

The watch will be lot 138 as part of the link 2021 Phillips New York Watch Auction held link over December 11th and 12th the Ellison Speedmaster will go under the hammer on the 12th. If nothing else the sale ought to make link the author of Invisible Man much more visible to the watch collecting community.

This is not his first Oris he's owned an Oris Pointer Date and still has an Aquis GMT. link He has always had link an appreciation link for the brand's independence and their dedication to important causes "It's amazing that you can purchase this beautiful object but also have the chance to help people."

And now that the long winding story of the Lennon 2499 has come to light its journey of theft from Tiffany amp link Co. to Turkey to Geneva and potential resurfacing might only add to its appeal and price.But even as the court case has surfaced new details of John link Lennon's Patek 2499 it's still possible we might never see the watch. And that'd be link fine too.

The watch still features plenty of link black maintaining a lightweight DLC-coated titanium case but it has a lighter grey strap and turquoise accents playing off a Porsche color palette that West saw in San Diego as well as the colors used by One More Wave in their own branding. West also told me that those color choices link speak to the fact that Navy link SEALs are far more complex than the alpha male persona they're often saddled with.

In this Reference link Points we'll link be looking at all Carreras in what I would describe as the vintage era which link is to say before the acquisition of Heuer by TAG in the mid-1980s with a few mentions of the special pieces that have come along since and a few pieces that immediately preceded the actual Carrera family. Let's get into it.

This is why I link say I would've absolutely loved the silver in 28mm. In link addition to the size link I've got a soft spot for silver watches. From the silver Black Bay 58 to an '80s Must de Tank Cartier a silver case is just a taste of extravagance. It's looking at the dessert menu and saying "I could split something" without committing to a full slice of cheesecake.

Just after the opening credits with a pitch-perfect era-appropriate musical score we see Redford's character a CIA link book digitizer working at his desk prior to the office massacre. At around the 455 mark you can clearly see the link burly hunk of steel and black bund refusing to fit under any shirt link or sweater sleeve.
