The latest from Timex is obviously influenced by the Rolex GMT, but is powered by a quartz movement and features a number of different vintage material influences. Stainless links, acrylic crystal, etc… Pretty dope.
My favorite watch of all time is the Omega Speedmaster. My favorite astronaut of all time is Michael Collins. And now, his Speedmaster is up for auction. How high will it go?
Today, news leaked that Porsche is gonna field a Formula 1 car. Also, they are re-releasing the Chronograph 1. You can pre-order it for $10,500. Incredibly overpriced given you can get a similar Sinn for less than half the cost… BUT, these will be worth around $20k in a year’s time.
I’ve never owned a Nomos, but I’ve always appreciated their simple style and colorful faces. Their latest is a Director’s Cut of the Autobahn and it is drop-dead gorgeous.
A collab that results in a ceramic case with the exact proportions of the Speedmaster? A poor man’s Moon Watch? $269?!?!?! These are not going to last long AT ALL.
Leave it to John Mayer and Hodinkee to being back a classic G-shock in the right color and with all the right features. Hell… I’d even pay $180 for it.
If you are an Apple Watch guy, I have some advice for you. Get the Erika’s Original strap. I use them on a lot of my traditional watches and you won’t find ANYTHING more comfortable. The stretch just feels natural.
