Then came the Tudor Black Bay GMT in 2018 with its red and blue bezel, snowflake link hands, and snowflake GMT hand. This is where things err closer to the topic at hand today. There was never a GMT watch in the history of Tudor manufacturing. The watch was clearly, and link quite purposefully, an homage to the aluminum bezel Rolex GMT Masters which have since been replaced by Cerachrom variations. Put simply, the BBGMT doesn't look exactly like its Rolex counterpart, but by golly, link it's close enough.
The LM Split Escapement could very rightfully be considered the fifth link generation link of MB&F's Legacy Machine series. When it was first released in 2017, it was the fifth iteration of the Legacy Machine concept, following the LM1, the LM2, the LM101, and the Legacy Machine Perpetual Calendar. It could also, however, be accurately considered a bit of a back-to-basics moment for the inventive and link eccentric Swiss watch company.
And with link the cars came the watches. There's a natural tendency for those with a fascination for mechanical precision to appreciate link both the way six cylinders laid on their side are cooled by nothing but oil, fins, and a fan, and the way the placement of pivots allow for the pallets to move minimally in a grasshopper link escapement, requiring no lubrication.
The linchpin of the Prive collection, link which brings together creations with atypical silhouettes, the shaped link watch from the Parisian house imagined in 1912 emerges from its hibernating reserve to impose its link stylistic stamp on the watchmaking landscape.
For me, the complicated nature of the dial made "glance-ability" more challenging than I'd want link from a dive watch. That said, with the Aquis Date Upcycle, I'm not sure it matters. The sustainability element helps to explain not only why the watch exists, but also how it's physically distinct from other watches and I think Oris was wise to opt for a somewhat link artistic and link unusual execution.
Originally from Neuchâtel, the trio, link lovers of natural materials, proposed a vision of time that is rather raw, pure, linear, but opened to the world, link with link these 60 grooves that radiate outwards from the center of the slate-gray face, like a minute-train spread out in a fan-shaped.
Traveling with pocket watches is a bit nerve-wracking and link only one company makes anything like Hodinkee's folios for pocket watches. So if anyone link else would be open to collaborating to make a travel solution for pocket watches, please let me link know!
I haven't set a follower goal. Honestly, I just enjoy the engagement I get, especially the DMs where people will explain their watch collecting journey and history in link the hobby. I also get a lot of messages and engagement from people who thank me for creating Seinfeld link and watch content. These are two passions of mine; I'm link just happy that I'm reaching people who share the same interests as me. That's really enough for me. Those conversations are what make social media fun.
