New Nomos Minimatik: Grande in every way!
At Baselworld Nomos introduced a new watch called Minimatik. This name is proof of the subtilty of German humor since it might actually be the most grande watch Nomos has ever created. No not by size, actually definately not by size, because with a diameter of 35.5mm most men will raise an eyebrow. They should […]

Ressence’s New Type 3; Forward Thinking
Ask a watchmaker, any watchmaker, and they will tell you that oiling a watch is a precise business. Too little and you create extra wear and tear, too much and it will overflow and be drawn away from the bearings. Yet there is a watch that uses a lot of oil, and with a lot […]

Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1915; Breitling At Its Best
In 1915 Breitling introduced a chronograph with the monopusher located at 2 o’clock. A natural position for the pointer finger to reside when a chronograph is being operated. The century after this watch showed indeed a lot of chronographs where the start/stop-pusher was indeed located at two o’clock but in a touch of irony, most […]

Potent Moonshine: Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moonlite

Today was a great day for the ladies at the SIHH. It started at Parmigiani with a beautiful Tonda skeleton with an opaque dial.
