Storing Watches In A Not-So-Safe Deposit Box

[PaulaYanni]

Apple is the big threat. It sold just under 18 million Apple Watches in 2017, according to industry estimates. (Market data companies International Data Corp. and Asymco put the figure at 17.7 million; Creative Strategies estimates 17.4 million. Apple itself does not disclose watch sales data.)Watches aren't quite as seasonal as something like fashion, but that doesn't mean our editors don't find themselves wearing certain watches more and less during particular times of the year. In this story, we round up the watches that our editors couldn't take off this past summer, with a healthy mix of modern and repliki Rolex vintage, complicated and simple, all represented.Check out the full story here.The Rolex Submariner wThe dial markers are applied and filled with Super-LumiNova – as are the rhodium-colored hands. The stark white of the lume and the pronounced black chapter ring make this watch surprisingly legible against the see-through dial surface. The crystal is a boxed sapphire with anti-reflective coating on both sides.


But outside the difference in weight – the high-end alternative is over 50 grams lighter pas cher TAG Heuer than the standard GMWB5000 in steel – the basic metal GMW models and the new MR-G pieces share identical dimensions and almost exactly the same feature set. At a distance, it would be impossible to tell the difference between the MRG-B5000 and an even more basic "square" G-Shock.Zelnick is drawn to the oblong case and wide brushed bezel, which make the whole thing look like a silvery egg. If you can get past the general strangeness of it (or, even better, embrace the strangeness), it's a surprisingly versatile watch. And it's the inspiration for...Up until today, the list of essential watches according to Hodinkee wasn't a list at all – it was the Speedmaster Professional. "I'm not saying you have to keep it," Ben Clymer wrote in 2016, "but I really think each man or woman who loves watches owes it to themselves to own a manually wound, three-register Speedmaster at some point in their lives."


The cases, and dials for that matter, are produced completely in-house by F.P. Journe, though at a location just outside Geneva. You can see here the final polishing machines of Les Boîtiers replica Cartier de Genève, Journe's casemaker.As we've seen in earlier versions of the watch, the two Moon disks are labeled Nord and Sud (north and south) as each represents the Moon as seen from the northern and southern hemispheres. The Sud disk, rather counterintuitively, is up top (north conventionally is at the top of most maps), but the reason for this is that to an observer in the southern hemisphere, it is the leftmost side of the Moon which falls into shadow first after a full Moon, and vice versa in the northern hemisphere.Now I say this with no intention to impugn the Swiss national character, nor indeed the country of Switzerland as a whole. I think of it almost as my home away from home and in any given year for theBesides the logo, the most eye-catching detail though is the choice of blocky, enjoyably severe-looking numerals that capture something of pre-Soviet Russian austerity. These are formed in a material that was patented by Swiss company Xeno Print in 2016 called Globolight, a ceramic and Super-LumiNova mix that can be colored however you want and carved into any shape you can imagine. Here, they glow a limpid green.There have been flashes of brilliance – 2021's Offshore Diver Khaki was a personal favorite, as is the audacity to make a Grande Complication skeleton Offshore with a hilarious "don't you dare take me into heavy rain" 20m water resistance for an Offshore – but nothing ever struck home for me. But it was a winning formula for AP, a blessing and a curse that has proven hard to break over the years.
