Several people were killed. As the story goes, an engineer’s slow watch may have been the cause. The incident prompted Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad to enlist Webb C. Ball to investigate timing conditions and to develop an inspection system to insure such a tragedy would never occur again. This lead to the creation of the Ball Time Service, and to the implementation of standardized practices for pocket watch manufacturing to assure dependable and accurate timepieces. Soon pe

Seamaster Planet Ocean vs 300m Diver
Hi guys, thinking about my next purchase and really love the Seamaster line of watches. I am really edging towards the PO because I love the wrist presence and size of it - keeping in mind that I own a Panerai and am a HUGE fan of those. But my dilemma is that I would like something that could also be dressed up a bit in a formal setting. I know that the 300m will fit the bill, it is the James Bond watch after all ;) But wondering if it will be the same case regarding the planet ocean. Any and all input appreciated. Especially if you can make your point with pics :)

Poll: so how does the 5650 compare
At long last a blue dial. As for the GMT's the 5650 is going to be hugely divisive. So what do we think of Jaws?

Visit of Wempe boutique Paris
I just came back from the Wempe boutique in Paris, and saw a few pieces from ALS and Patek, I won't talk about them all but just about the 2 most interesting IMO from the ones which were there, the ALS Datograph and the PP 5980-1AR, so starting with the PP, the dial is a beauty, if it was available in SS it might be a model that I might consider one day if I decided to get another PP, but in TT not really. But to be honest between the TT 5980 and my 5712 I prefer much more mine.Now for the really interesting one, the Datograph perpetual in platinum, it was the first time I saw ALS pieces, the movement, the dial, the finition and attention to details are just great, I understand now why so many here consider that ALS and PP are on practically the same level in terms of quality and beauty.Of course there were other ALS, the Zeitwerk for example, nice piece, original, but for me a little overpriced for what it is, the other ALS models were very basic and while nice were not very appealing

Sub Timekeeping Accuracy
In November my wife bought me a 116618LB (YG w/ Blue dial).For the last 4-5 weeks I have not removed my Sub. I sleep, shower, everything wearing the watch.I checked the time today. Over that 4-5 week period the watch has picked up 5 seconds.I am super impressed.
