Ahead of the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11's historic mission, we take a closer look at the history of lunar timing.

The funny thing about classic designs and the good old days is that you often recognize them only once they are over-when you are no longer experiencing them in the present. But how remarkable would it be to own and wear something knowing that it was made precisely for its time but with potential as a future classic? The Brew Metric Black & Gold Carbon chronograph seeks to accomplish just that: to be a watch designed for this very moment but distinctive enough to be recognized for generations to come. As the latest evolution of the Metric chronograph, the Black & Gold is at once evocative and alluring. The Metric is perhaps Brew’s most famous design with its off-centered sub-dials and curvaceous case and bracelet. The elapsed seconds dial at ten o’clock curiously marks the optimal window of time to extract the perfect espresso shot, which is just the kind of anachronism and modern charm that has come to define Brew as a whole. The stealthy 36mm case and bracelet, subtle touches of carbon along the edge of the dial, and gold accents all combine to make a beautiful watch that is just different enough from the mainstream today. In other words, it just might be a future classic. The post Lookbook: Keeping It Classic with the Brew Metric Black & Gold Carbon appeared first on Worn & Wound.

We caught up with our friend at the band's anniversary show in Brooklyn and saw what watch goes perfect with sweating through your shirt and doing handstands on keyboards.

It's the smallest Master Chronometer-certified Speedmaster yet.

In our watch-related movie of the week, a Speedy gets so much screen time it deserves an acting credit.

Is Canopus gold the traditional metal for a 65th birthday?

To call the Speedy “influential” is like calling Paul Bunyan “tall.” Hodinkee literally would not exist without the chronograph that went to the Moon – and then kept on flying higher and higher. There have been many iterations over the past half-century. These are the ones we love the most.

We've all been there, so let's break down the ways you can wear a 3861 Speedy.

Seven Apollo XI Speedmasters appearing in less than a year has me asking: Is now the best time or worst time to buy an astronaut's gold Speedmaster?

Houston knew they had a problem, but didn't know a certain timepiece would help solve it in our watch-related movie of the week.

It's green and gold and right on the money.

And we thought it could only travel to the Moon. Our watch-related movie of the week, a brand new film on Netflix, says otherwise.

Let me play among the stars.

With its first new motor in decades, the venerable Moonwatch is ready to rocket.

The newest version of the Moonwatch replaces the cal. 1861 Moonwatch, after five decades.

Yea, Mine Too.

The first Speedmaster to be powered by the new caliber 321, in the (platinum) metal.

History comes alive.

Of cryo-stirs and cartoon dogs.

We make this choice not because it is easy, but because it is hard!

The real deal, in steel. Oh, and it's not a limited edition, either.

Taking the Speedy Racing for a few hot laps.

This is one of the most compelling Speedies in recent history and a watch that flat-out makes me smile.

After a decades-long hiatus, one of the most renowned movements of all time is coming back.

On the 50th Anniversary of the first time we saw the dark side of the Moon, we take a closer look at Omega's Apollo 8 Speedmaster.

The watch that inspired HODINKEE's creation returns as a special 500-piece limited edition.

It broke through both the estimate and the previous record in dramatic fashion.
