Get a Free Nomos!..
Ok, that title is admittedly misleading. No, you can't have a free Nomos watch, but you can make your own Nomos timepiece. In honor of spring, the designers in Glash��tte put together a DIY Sundial for your time telling pleasure. Simply print the PDF on their site, cut out the slot, insert a pencil and orient 12am towards north. The sun will do the rest, and wherever your shadow lies will tell you the time.

A byproduct of the rarity of modern Rolex sport models is the bragging rights coming with having got one. And in a braggadocious environment as social media in general and outlets like Instagram in particular, such bragging rights typically don't remain silence. Quite to the contrary, they may well lead to loads of free advertising.I mean the guy who walks into the AD and buys his dream watch would more likely than not just slap it on his wrist and be done with it, if at all, he might pass it along around a beer that same night at the pub, but that's it.Whereas the guy that gets the call after two years of agonizing over his Daytona - he does a got the call thread here, live tweets the pickup, posts the whole e
