VCXO Ox One "Magic Button" Mechanical Watch With GPS Time Synchronization
The VCXO Ox One is a bold new concept from a young Geneva-based brand which offers a rather unique bond between GPS technology and mechanical movements. While the accuracy of?GPS-set quartz watches is universally?acknowledged, most watch enthusiasts will agree mechanical watches tend to have more soul, thanks to their?"beating heart," when?the same can scarcely be said about electronic watches. With the Ox One, VCXO tries to achieve the best of both worlds by offering a watch with an automatic mechanical movement?equipped with a GPS module on top, allowing for the?synchronization of the time?with data received through GPS technology.?That sounds like some proper space-age technology, so let's discover how it works exactly.Serving as the?foundation of the watch is a TT-738?automatic movement from Swiss?Technotime SA, an independent?supplier that produces complete movements, movement modules and even balance springs.

What price you get from insurance?
Has anyone on this forum had to file a claim with their insurance company for a Rolex watch, who is willing to share what value their insurance company gave them compared to Rolex suggested retail?The reason I ask is that I recently filed a claim with my insurance company for a lost Rolex, and the quote they received from Rolex was only about 75% of suggested retail price.In the end this was irrelevant to me, as I asked them to send me a replacement watch (same model as the insured piece), but it did make me curious.Does Rolex perhaps quote them the wholesale price?
