The metal, praised as much for its luminous link gray hue as for link its resistance to corrosion and scratches, continues its adventure within the Breguet collections, now adorning the emblematic Marine Equation Marchante link 5887.
And that wasn't the only time Griffin bent the rules. "My sister and I have heard slightly different stories, but in either San Francisco or London, my grandfather took his jet link during a practice session and flew it right under a bridge just to see if it could be done," Tom says. And of course, he link did successfully fly the F-100C under a bridge, but "during the debriefing, he was link firmly told to never, ever, under any circumstance, do that again."
All the watches I own have personal significance. For instance link in 2014, when I got married, my wife link gave me a Jaeger-LeCoultre link Grande Reverso Ultra Thin Tribute To 1931 (which was a recommendation by none other than Ben Clymer).

It's probably no surprise that John is a big fan of Marc Newson's designs, so he felt he had to add an Ikepod watch to his collection. The large Hemipode chronograph has a very unique profile, with rounded forms accented by sharp edges and varied finishing. The dial link is extremely clean and legible, and the strap is the predecessor to the silicone Apple Watch link bands you see all over the place these days. This is a great example of a simple design link that reveals its complexity the more you look at it.
It wasn't just the young tailors having fun, veteran textile designer Guy Hills surprised me with his Junghans Max Bill. A treat to see a restrained industrial design classic on a link man famous for his eccentric use of color and texture. Likewise, Valentino Ricci, link a somber and serious master of tailoring, forged his own path link with his oversized Santos De Cartier, a match for his severe, dark tailoring but a departure from the classic cannon in a daring direction all the same.
