Urwerk EMC Black Watch Presents The Dark Side Of Horological Tinkering
It was only a few months ago that we went hands-on with Urwerk's amazing EMC watch?and discovered its unique electro-mechanical venture into?horology. Now, the brand has announced a new PVD coated version of the Urwerk EMC, dressing up this beast of a watch in a stealthy, matte black color. Now, where the Urwerk EMC watch stood out was that it mixed mechanical timekeeping with a digital accuracy checking device that would allow the wearer of the watch to check?the accuracy of the watch at any given moment, without having to connect the timepiece to an external machine or any other apparatus. It was called the?"Electro Mechanic Control," and it certainly remains the key feature of the Urwerk EMC Black.That sounds complicated enough, and despite the hugely impressive achievements in miniaturization, the UR-EMC movement still requires substantial space. You see, while?the so-called?large watch trend of late?certainly brought along the �C oftentimes?rightful �C criticisms of watch enthusiast

Hands-On: A Couple Of Predictions From The Upcoming Only Watch 2015 Benefit Auction �C And What Might
Only Watch happens once every two years (usually in Monaco, but this year, in Geneva for the first time) as you probably know if you're a HODINKEE reader.  You probably also know that the purpose of the auction is to benefit research into better treatments – and perhaps, someday, even a cure – for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, an inherited, progressive, and usually ultmately terminal illness in which a defect in a key muscle structural protein (dystrophin)  causes slow but irreversible loss of muscle tissue.  The benefit auction is organized by the Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies ("myopathy" is a general term for muscle tissue disorders) the Monaco Yacht Show, and an auction house which takes responsibility for curating and auctioning a collection of unique pieces made by the world's top watchmaking companies specifically for that purpose.  This year, it's the Phillips Watch Department, which partners with the fir

Submariner history since 1954
I was wondering if anyone can answer a specific submariner history question. The first submariners were unveiled around 1954. They have always been black or blue, with the exception of the two special green ones I think. Currently, there are eight models in production and they are all 40 mm case diameters. I believe there are twenty-one discontinued models. Of those discontinued models of the submariner, were they all also 40 mm case diameters?Not sure why this popped into my head, but now that I cannot find the answer it is bugging me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
