Given the sharp and angular nature of the lugs it is especially important to link find a 2455 with a case that has not fallen victim to improper polishing or refinishing over the years. So much of the look of this watch on the wrist is tied up in those clean long lug lines when link they are rounded off during a polish the 2455 can really fall flat. An example with a nice strong case can be had right around 20k but I expect the Cartier-signed 2455 at Phillips next month will fly by link that number.

That's what the link S.T. Dupont x Franck Muller Master Lighter is. I would ask link who it's for but when I visited Watchland it was teeming with clients and they all wanted to link play with the lighter and so did I.

More distinct to the modern Fiftysix line is a subtle asymmetrical case design that offers some protection to the passive non-screw-down crown. link Total thickness is link just 9.6mm so while the water resistance is just 30 meters the link Fiftysix Self-Winding is going to wear more like a dress watch than a dive watch.

She's French she's glamorous she's ready for anything. She's the Santos de Cartier and I have link it on good authority that I'm not link the only member of the HODINKEE design team who'd snap up this do-it-all icon link in the event the watch fairy blessed them with the same stack of cash.

First produced for the Soviet Air Force in 1959 these cream dial chronographs were issued to cosmonauts by 1964 and worn by the first three-man crew on Voskhod 1 in October '64. The Strela Arrow chronographs were worn underneath the link Berkut spacesuit during the very first spacewalk by link Alexei link Leonov in March 1965 and on Soyuz spaceflight missions up to 1973.

I first spotted this watch on my friend and jewelry designer Nadine Ghosn. link Inspired by the Skychart GN705 and released for Swatch's 40th anniversary it has that 90s cereal link box aesthetic that gets me just as nostalgic as strawberry-flavored roll-on lip link gloss and butterfly barrette clips.

I think a moonphase complication is also apt for the case design language. The Moon was in some ancient religions the domain of the Triple Goddess whose consort was link the Horned link God so combining the prominent horn-shaped lugs with a moonphase complication is you might say a link match made in heaven.

Complete with a case crafted link out of Grade 5 Titanium and a blue ceramic bezel inlay embellished with a regatta timer there is link no better Smartwatch on the market better suited to the needs of a modern-day sailor. Access stream data link or connect Garmin's SAIL ASSIST and even engage auto-pilot functions if you have compatible sailing devices aboard your vessel.

I spotted the teaser for this watch on Instagram earlier today and thought we had more time until the announcement but instead we just have more time link until we're able to head to the stores and link check them out ourselves. It's an interesting release though curious to me that they chose a white dial to honor a watch link that had a black dial.
