The Turtle bracelet's polished inner section replika bell ross hodinky is reminiscent of the last generation Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch. The Samurai has a more traditional Oyster-style three-link all-brushed bracelet.The Comments: 1. This is a really cool surprise, James Bond is one of my (if not) my most favorite fictitious character. (Right next to Batman & Indiana Jones). In regards to the watch, I'm indifferent with the swatch brand, but the collab with Omega is pretty cool. But since Daniel Craig wore it, I admit I may wanna get one noSure it may have only been published yesterday, but we feel compelled to share it again – especially for those of you who miss the Old Hodinkee where every story was a million words long. (It lives!) Our resident vintage expert, Tony Traina, nerds out in this compendium of all things Fifty Fathoms. Make sure you're sitting somewhere comfortable for this one.


- This is one of the models containing a Piguet 1185 derivative (AP caliber 2385); the giveaway is the sundial layout and the proximity of the date wheel to the dial surface - note how a billige audemars piguet ure lot of Offshores have a little 'tunnel' containing a magnifying glass in front of the date (click here to read our Offshore Safari review).Interestingly, the inside of the box top asks owners to show off their new #timex watches on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X.Note the "our warranty."

Sternglas continues to evolve its watch lineup rapidly. Today's new Tachymeter 2.0 is a great example because it replaces the original model after a short three-year production run. We like it when a company is not content to rest with its existing designs. The question, as always, is whether the newest watch is an improvement.

While that is not how I would have my ultimate Datejust, I can't deny the incredible charm and beauty of this smooth-bezel model. Yes, I would pick the Datejust ref. 1601 over this one, but the 1600 comes in a close second place.But these almost dangerously convenient devices haven't always been around, and some of the tasks these gorilla glass rectangles now handle were left to mechanical watches, from knowing the time and date to timing tasks and setting a handy alarm.There were still several lots to go before the Anniversary watch sale, so we decided grab a table in the lobby bar. The group included Roger, Claude Sfeir, myself, a very nice man named Hamdan Bin Humaid (who I realized very quickly was the man behind so many of the cool projects I'd seen online for independent watches in the Middle East), a great American collector named Mike S., Hodinkee's own Malaika Crawford, and at times, a few others. Here are a few of the watches from around the table.
