For centuries, the physical and spiritual center of Florence has been the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, better known simply as the Duomo. Centuries in the building, the Duomo is the result of the
link work of an incredible number of hands and minds, and contains treasures, and represents history, of incalculable value. Today we'll look at just one of its many remarkable features: the clock that stands over the main entrance to the cathedral.Jumping to lot 225, the titanium 40mm Laurent Ferrier Galet Micro-Rotor Limited Edition For HODINKEE (case number 1 of 12) more than doubled its high estimate, with a hammer price of CHF 63,000 (over an original retail price of $46,000) and a brand new home in Switzerland.The handset is also quite faithful to the original, down to the diamond shape of the seconds hand at the center post. While I had assumed the black sections of the hour and minute hands, interrupting the center stripes of white lume, were painted, a quick UV test showed me that they are in fact lumed, though fading much faster than the white SuperLuminova. Of course, the star of the show here is that black and red checkerboard GMT hand.
The title of first-ever Japanese free-sprung balance wheel goes to the Grand Seiko Cal. 9SA5, which is still quite fresh. It's truly great to see the two domestic giants releasing
link their own free-sprung balance wheel design that is synonymous with high-end watchmaking, but the Cal. 9SA5 and Citizen's Cal. 0200 are different in their respective approaches.This watch is being touted as the "Outdoors" which is meant to signal that it's fit for all outside activity, not just diving.

Under the dial, you get Norqain's version of a Kenissi movement, in this case the NN20/1. In addition to the custom rotor, Norqain's version has
link a conventional Nivarox hairspring in lieu of the silicon one that Tudor uses. Nonetheless, the movement is COSC-rated and features the same sturdy construction as the version used by Tudor.The Certina DS PH200M features a 42.8mm case and it's 11.90mm thick. The ETA Powermatic 80.611 boasts an 80-hour power reserve. It's water-resistant to 200 meters. It's delivered with a blue NATO strap and has a 20mm lug width. The spec that's most shocking, however, is the price. It's $980.That's why it first struck me as unusual for Marathon to pair up with a brand like J.Crew. Marathon operates quietly and humbly, and it has genuine military history, while plenty of other brands grossly embellish their origin story regarding the watch's connection and role to the armed services.Both watches feature a striking gray, radial-pattern dial with the classic Pasha numerals (well, one single numeral for the chrono), and blue accents for the hands. Each has the same date window location at 4:30 though the positioning is very pronounced due to the design.
