The UTS Bauhaus 1000 Meter Collection: Possibly UTS's Most Attractive Watch Yet
UTS Munchen watch company is literally comprised of basically one extremely dedicate watch maker who puts each UTS watch together by hand. Utterly German in their form and function, these venerable watches make wonderful tools. Which is part of their appeal and drawback at the same time. The watches excel are their function, but could be described as being overly clinical in appearance. Of course it depend on who you ask, but this new line of UTS Bauhaus watches is certainly a fresh and appealing look that maintains the image and history of the brand.Bauhaus design is difficult to describe, but has German origination and is deeply focused on function. Though it resembles minimalism, it is not that strictly speaking. For me, it is more a minimalist version of art deco or art nouveau. The real display of Bauhaus aesthetic is on the face of the watch. The rest of it is more or less standard UTS fare, which is not bad by any means.I am impressed that despite it being a 1000 meter diver, th
Introducing: The New Rolex Air-King (Finally)
Ask and you shall receive – I bring you the Rolex Air-King! This year at Baselworld we have seen the new Daytona, the Explorer, the Datejust 41, and now the Air-King. This puppy has a ton of new features and has a relatively good price (for a Rolex). 1 OF 3 The Air-King is one of the most well-known (and widely missed) Rolex models. Initially released in 1945 (along with the Datejust), this model (like every Rolex model) has seen several modifications over the decades, and this year is no different. 2 OF 3 The new Air-King comes in a 40 mm 904L stainless-steel Oyster case. The shiny black dial features the 3-6-9 hour configuration (à la the Explorer) and the minute indication on the fives. ADVERTISEMENT And the best part? The dial bears the name "Air-King" in the same script as the ones from the 1950s. Additionally, this watch is powered by the automatic caliber 3131 movement and is also a certified
The 5711 has landed
After many years lusting after it, today I picked it up. More wrist shots to come and perhaps some of my thoughts, but here we go for now...
Ladies can never wear 47mm.........
Yeah, someone forgot to send her that memo! Had lunch with my mother last week and she stole my watch for the duration of the meal. Oh, and I think she rocked it, too.
Daytona 500 alignment question
Since the moment I took my Daytona out of its plastic travel coffin direct from my AD the chrono seconds has been just... slightly forward from top dead center when reset. It's almost half a second forward, that's the best description I can give. 1. Has anyone else seen this on the new movement?2. Any concerns I should have?3. Is there a way the fix this without opening the watch?
