Bremont Jaguar MKI And MKII Non-Limited Edition Jaguar Collaboration Watches
It was?just about six months?ago that English watch brand Bremont announced its new partnership?with fellow English car manufacturer Jaguar, and now, with the Bremont Jaguar MKI and Bremont Jaguar MKII watches, we see that collaboration result in the first series of non-limited edition watches. At Baselworld 2015, Bremont will debut two new pieces?inspired by the famous vintage?Jaguar E-Type road car: the Bremont Jaguar MKI, a three-hand model, and the Bremont Jaguar MKII, which is a bi-compax chronograph.What happened half-a-year ago was that?Bremont announced a limited edition of six time-only watches, inspired by the famous Jaguar E-Type race car �C so much so that, in fact, the?watch?was?designed to be sold to the future owners of the six $1.6 million re-production?E-Types that Jaguar created?last year. The dial design was largely inspired by the tachometer (or rev-counter) of the E-Type, as the watch featured similar fonts and red-zone between 3 and 4 o'clock.The reason I'm telling

Zodiac ZMX 03 Chronograph Diver Watch Is Kinda Chronograph, Kinda Not - Kinda Interesting, Kinda Bland
It is easy to see how this watch came into existence. Zodiac is part of the uber-mediocre Fossil watch company. Think of a committee sitting around together. Maybe only one or two of them knows anything about the technical side of watch making. The rest are product designers, hipsters, and marketing people who like to gauge market trends. Someone blandly comments, "Zodiac has a deep history with diving, let's create something bold, that fits in the existing product line." The non-technical designers go to work, basically ignoring most of the functional elements, and only focusing on pure form, or what their teachers awarded them on in product design school. They take into consideration the memo that big watches are in, they look at other diving watches, and have some idea of the materials they can work with. Oh, and watches tend to look more 'legitimate' when there are lots of instrumental looking hash marks on the dial. Who knows what odd impractical thing they came up with initially?

What is the ETA on the new PO w/ Cal 8500?

I know that for some here the notion of purchasing a TT SS/YG or SS/RG watch isn't appealing due to it only being made partly of 18kt gold.The argument being that a TT buyer can't afford a full gold version so is compensating by getting a model with as much gold as possible.But, I really really find TT watches attractive. The white metal vs the yellow/rose gold metal....color wise....in of itself....just works beautifully.I am a 70s child and a lot of TT were available.When I look at some current Rolex TT models:TT YG/SS Blue SubTT RG/SS Blue YM2TT RG/SS Chocolate YM2The color combinations of the models above...the colors of the various metals....silver/white for the SS part when paired with the yellow or rose gold of the second metal.....that bi metal look....that TT look....I just find incredibly satisfying and really attractive.I was wondering for those in the group of solid gold or ss...if the TT models were actually 100% gold.....ie....WG/YG TT or WG/RG TT...as opposed to SS for t
