Why There Is No Best Watch And How I Don't Have A Favorite Timepiece
Choose just one watch forever? Why?I am sorry to disappoint the superlative loving masses but there is no one best watch and I regret to inform you that I don't have a standout favorite timepiece or watch brand. It is worth noting that what prompted me to assemble the collection of thoughts in this article is the experience of several years of people innocently repeatedly asking me these questions. The inquisitive remarks themselves are no doubt natural but few people seem to be satisfied with my response. When it comes down to it, I cannot in good faith claim a single best or list of best watch brands, nor will I put myself in a position to choose "just one watch I could own if I had a choice." Here is why, and this gets philosophical at first...The topic of what one does for a living is a natural query in social conversation and few people respond with the answer of "I write about watches" (or whatever description I feel to offer at the moment of what I feel is a less than straightfo

Introducing The Longines Conquest 1/100th Alpine Skiing Chronograph
The ability to time?events to hundredths of a?second?is quite a technological feat. Such recording requirements surpass the needs of the average chronograph-user (who is more likely to?use this complication in more modern ways (e.g. grilling time, decanting time, souffl��-rising time. Heck, maybe even a light?jog if it's not raining). But for the adventurous watch-wearer, especially one who lives on the slopes, Longines is offering the Conquest 1/100th Alpine Skiing Chronograph.Longines has a long history of athletic timekeeping �C since 1878, to be exact �C and this new model continues that heritage.?The case measures in at 41 mm �C modern dimensions, but not egregious. The dial is black with a single applied Arabic numeral at 12 o'clock and eleven applied indexes?with Super-LumiNova coating.The?hands are rhodium?plated, with the red hand swiping at 1/100th of a second when engaged. Subdials include a 30-minute counter at 2 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 10 o'clock and running seconds at 6

Ap nyc/apsc
I just wanted to do a quick post about my recent experience with AP in light of all the hand wringing about accuracy and movement issues. I sent in my RO for the 3 year warranty and to have them check the movement as it was running fast. Dropped it off on 7/28 and received the call today 8/15 that it is back and ready to be picked up. So three weeks max, including shipping both ways. Could not ask for more -- AP service is by far the best of all the brands I have dealt with. So, yes, my APs tend to run fast but if there is ever an issue AP fixes it no questions asked, and they do it pronto. This is why my next watch will be another AP. So if you like APs but the horror stories of movement issues are holding you back, buy what you like, enjoy it and stop worrying about 10 seconds here and there. Slow down, enjoy the watch and rest assured it will be fixed should anything go wrong.
