The New Nomos Lux Weissgold Watch
Nomos has expanded their distinctive line of watches into two new upmarket model lines, the Lux and the Lambda. Available this November, the Lux and Lambda (discussed here) represent a new direction for the conservative Glash��tte?brand as they move into small batch production of gold watches that are powered by a new range of in-house movements.While we will cover the Lambda in an separate post, the Lux is arguably the outlier in Nomos' newly expanded lineup. Available in two 18k white gold versions - the Lux Weissgold (light blue and white dial) and the Lux Weissgold Hell (white dial), the range utilizes a tonneau-style case rendered in 18k white gold and measuring 40.5 x 36 mm. With wire lugs and a thickness of just 8.95 mm, the Lux should make for a very wearable design.The Lux range is powered by the DUW 2002, a new hand-wound calibre that is produced in-house by Nomos. The DUW 2002 features twin mainspring barrels that provide 84 hours of power reserve to the three hand movement w

Royal Oak Extra Thin 39mm
I see a lot of talk about the new royal oak 15400, the discontinued 15300 and the sought after 15202. However I dont see any thread talking about the Royal Oak extra thin 39mm 40th anniversary. Is this a extremely exclusive edition? or just nobody cares about it? it comes with a different rotor (its not the same as the 15202 nor 15300) and it comes only in blue dial color. What's up with this model? it looks exactly as the 1972 model and it is gorgeous.Heres a pic from AP website .audemarspiguet/en/wat...T.OO.1240ST.01Thanks a lot guys for enlighten me.Oh, and it has the AP logo at 6 o clock and two batons at 12

Frustration Setting, Timing New 5140 (calibre 240Q)
I love my first Patek, a new 5140-R-011 with the latest 2014 opaline silver dial, purchased 12 days ago from an AD. It's been my dream to own a PP perpetual calendar for many years, and, after the price drop, plus a generous discount, I bit. Now that it's been on my wrist for 12 days, I decided to reset the time, which seemed slow by between 5 and 10 seconds. I certainly have no complaint about the accuracy, but setting a watch without running seconds and without a hack is proving a monumental pain. First, I've noted that my dial seems not perfectly calibrated. The minute marker dots appear not to be uniform in their placement, and some are 5 or more seconds off, when compared to others? Given that problem, I decided it was necessary to time the watch just as the minute hand centered over the very same minute dot each hour. But, even using a loupe, it's difficult to see exactly when it's centered over the tiny dot. I then decided that the most accurate way to set the time was t
