Close-Up: Omega Speedmaster ��Grey Side of the Moon��
To accompany its highly successful Dark Side of the Moon collection, Omega launched the Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon last year. Fashioned from ceramic and platinum, the watch features several design elements that distinguish it from other Omega watches.The watch’s look is inspired by the lunar dust that captured the footprints of the Apollo astronauts in the iconic images beamed back to Earth. When creating this watch, Omega had to employ a special process to capture the color of the lunar surface. The ceramic material starts out white, but it takes on the required darker hue in a high-temperature plasma furnace. Exposed to a proprietary mix of gasses at a temperature of 36,000 degrees Fahrenheit for three hours, the ceramic emerges in a shimmering grey. This unique ceramic is used to create the case, caseback, bezel, crown, pushers and buckle of this 44.25-mm timepiece.In another first for Omega, the engraved tachymetric scale on the bezel is filled with Super-Lum

Casio G-Shock G-Aviation GWA1100 Watch
When it comes to watches that will stand up to just about anything you can throw at it, there's one lineup that's probably at the top of just about everyone's list�Cthe Casio G-Shock. The Casio G-Shock G-Aviation GWA1100 is brand new to the collection. These watches have proven themselves over time, and have an enthusiastic worldwide following. They offer a variety of styles, all with full complements of functionality; when it comes to the more vividly-colored models, we've most commonly seen these in the digital displays. With the latest addition to the Gravity Master line, however, we see an analog display paired to a day-glo orange case with a compass.With this particular Casio G-Shock GWA1100, big and bold seems to be the name of the game. Along with the bright coloration, we've got a case that's just a hair under 54mm�Cdefinitely not a subtle piece. Should your wrist be up for this particular mission, though, you're going to get a cornucopia of functionality. My favorite of the feat

Any funky experience with PP winding boxes?
Like your watch not quite being wound properly and stopping? I have two PP winding boxes for my perpetuals, and for whatever reason the watches run out of power while on them for a day or two. Yes, the little switch at the bottom is set to cal 240, the batteries are new and the watches face me when I turn the winders on... they SEEM to run appropriately at a gentle speed for 8 hours, stopping for 16 hours before resuming their 24 hour cycle (which is standard)... If they are running a bit slow, then BOTH boxes are running a bit slow because they seem to be rotating at the same pace.The watches run perfectly if they are on my wrist, and die down after about 36-40+ hours if I leave them be, which is consistent with their power reserve specification. So it's not the watches.Yes, the best winder is my own wrist - I totally agree with this. But sometimes when I travel and bring my 5711 instead, I kind of like keeping the perpetuals in a winding box to spare myself the adjustment when I
