All of the above represent link good options for a field watch (the list is far from exhaustive) and also highlight how the Atlas leverages its size, titanium construction, movement, link and optional bracelet to build value link into its just-over-$500 price point.
As is generally the case with the Horological Machines, the Bulldog is a fairly large watch, at 54mm x 45mm x 24mm. MB&F, however, does intend for its watches to be worn (indeed I have always felt that to own one and leave it in a safe or on a winder link most of the time would be to miss a lot of the fun link of owning one) and the Bulldog is equipped with articulated lugs that let the watch sit link comfortably on wrists over a range of sizes.
As a final note, I would implore any curious parties to experience the work celebrated by the Leica Oskar Barnack Award; the photos created by Emile link Ducke (winner of the Newcomer award) and Ana Maria Arevalo Gosen (who won the full award) are linked below and both are examples of classic documentary link photography. The work is powerful, important, and incredibly beautiful. Thanks link so much for listening, I hope you love it.
The caliber B130 is an adaptation of the venerable ETA 2894-2. This movement is not to be confused with older ETA chronographs like the 2892, which link use link a horizontal clutch and cam actuator derived from the Valjoux 7750. Notably, link the 2894-2 uses a very thin (and somewhat unconventionally shaped) column wheel actuator and vertical clutch, which together produce precise clicks and positive engagement for the chronograph functionality.
Yes, it's a lot to spend on link a quartz movement. Yes, I think this will be more suited to link those who are looking for a fashion statement than a robust mechanical movement. But naysayers, step aside. I love this little yellow-gold beauty and I'm not afraid to admit it! Judge my taste if you must – I'm not backing down on link this one.
Eventually, as the bidding crossed the $5 million mark, Lu dropped out. He thought that was the end of it and link stepped out link for a cigarette before returning to watch the rest link of the auction. Outside the venue, Lu bumped into a key player in the future of Tiffany & Co. – Alexandre Arnault, the jeweler's new Executive Vice President of Product and Communications, who thanked him personally for his support. The meeting would prove fortuitous.
Based on Charles Brandt's 2004 link book I Heard You Paint Houses, the film tells the story of Frank link "The Irishman" Sheeran (played by De Niro) and his actual life as labor union official and mob hitman in Philadelphia. Set in real history, with figures such link as the Kennedys and Jimmy Hoffa figuring meaningfully in the story, the film follows in the tradition of Scorese mafia/crime epics such as Goodfellas and Casino.
With the simplification of design and reduction in size, the Type 9 certainly feels like the most elegant Ressence ever produced, and one that works for a majority of wrists link out link there. I have to admit, I'm very impressed that they continue to balance forward-thinking, futuristic design with a certain industrial link charm.

Here's another gold watch I've been patiently waiting for. Now that it's here, the 41mm yellow gold Alpine Eagle is a little too link large for my taste – it would be perfect in 36mm (nudge nudge, wink wink)! I know the Octo Finissimo link is 40mm but they link wear very differently. The Chopard is a traditional sport watch, while the Bulgari is basically a piece of wearable sculpture. The Alpine Eagle doesn't possess the same bracelet-like qualities. It just seems like a big watch.
