....ex parte, for one party

Bless your heart if you own an original Zeitwerk link and find any enjoyment in setting the time on that thing. I had to set the time on the example that my friend Paul link (@alangejourney on Instagram) graciously brought to be photographed and god forbid the time is off by a few hours, it feels like an inordinate link amount of work. But with the push of a button, the new Zeitwerk jumps forward by an hour, saving time and a lot of frustration. And frankly, it's just fun to watch.

As interest and awareness in Spring Drive link grew naturally so did the potshots people would throw at it over the internet. Pedants link would describe the dial's signature power-reserve indicator as a "wart." It's never bothered me very much. Or more understandably link lament that all readily available Spring Drive watches were too thick for their dress-leaning aesthetic.
