Bad Luck Begone! - The Richard Mille RM 26-02 Tourbillon Evil Eye
I didn’t really get this watch at first. As we conventionally understand the term, one is said to have been afflicted with the evil eye if one experiences an unmitigated and inexplicable stretch of misfortune, suffering and illness. It’s more or less like a kind of jinx. The way I saw it, there didn’t seem […]

The art of scrimshaw is surrounded by layer upon layer of romance, tradition and controversy.
