Let’s Get Lost In The Legacy Of The IWC Porsche Design Compass Watch

For clarity’s sake, we need to define some terms. This article is about independents in the broad sense of the word. I am speaking here of watch companies that are unaffiliated with large luxury groups. They are often relatively young, founder-owned, and small enterprises. There are many exemptions to these guidelines, but let’s take this as a starting repliky Tudor point.If you are a dedicated Rolex fan, you know that white gold Datejusts are very rare.Releasing a watch in tantalum is enough to get enthusiasts pretty excited. The extremely hard, heavy, dark, lustrous, and ductile material is gorgeous, in my opinion the best white metal material on the market. But most enthusiasts know it's also a nightmare to work with, gumming up machinery and driving case makers insane. And while a tantalum watch might not be the massive achievement it used to be, it is certainly a moment for a brand to proudly say "look what we can do."


Toge is a Japanese word meaning “mountain pass,” and this pairing of the Mount Iwate pattern with a color synonymous not just with Britain but with automotive sport is intended to evoke the scenic drive one might make over the northern mountain’s many ridges. The color, the design, and the story that goes along with it are in line with other recent Grand Seiko releases that reach for more poetic, allusive meanings, such Tag Heuer Formula 1 as the Seasons collection.Six months later, the brand introduced the new 9RA2 movement with five-day power reserve in the SLGA007 and SLGA008, moving the power reserve to the movement side of the watch and resolving a pet peeve of GS Spring Drive fans.The brands will tell you it's a blend of dive and dress watch, "guaranteed to remind any New Yorker of a certain hometown baked good."

He restored watches and clocks for some of the world's most important collections, from the hallowed halls of the Patek Philippe Museum to the humongous pocket watch and automaton collection of Maurice-Yvez Sandoz.


Its patentee, Abraham-Louis Breguet, revolutionized the precision of a mechanical movement with a mechanism capable of countering the negative effects of gravity.A memorable visit to NASA commemorates the long-standing connection between NASA and Omega.Laplace actually owns two identical examples of this Universal Genève ref. 20964 from the 1940s, one featuring the initials (H.P.C.) of Henrique Pfeffer Caracas, a mid-century Universal Genève retailer from Venezuela, and another without any additional signature that he sourced from the United States. "Both are in amazing condition, and are very, Breitling Aviator 8 very beautiful," he says.There are five anti-reflective coated sapphire crystals: two for the eyes, one for the brain, and one for the engine. The fifth is for the movement "undercarriage" or belly of the beast, so to speak. There, you'll see a beautifully crafted movement featuring large openings to see the gears, an emphasis on hand-finishing, and a power reserve indicator hand.
