Sinn 103 A Sa B Watch: The New Arktis Of 2015?
For 2015, Sinn has released the limited edition 103 A Sa B watch, hearkening the beautiful blue tones of cult favorite Sinn 203 Arktis. Blue happens to be hot this year (if you didn't notice), and I am glad that watch makers ranging from those producing fashion items, to companies known for making seriously high-function tool watches, like German Sinn, are embarking on the complicated task of releasing their own blue-colored watches.Why a complicated task? A successfully made blue watch makes the process to create a blue watch look simple, even though it is certainly not. Making a nice-looking black watch is easy, because when it comes down to it, there is just one real shade of black. Blue, on the other hand, involves a whole world of tones, shades, and finishes that must work in perfect harmony on a watch in tandem with things like case materials, dials, and hands. Thus, producing a nice blue watch with just the right shades that appeals to the most people is tough - perhaps that is

A Week On The Wrist: The Blancpain L-Evolution Chronographe Flyback a? Rattrapante Grande Date (Plus
I've worn a lot of watches in my day, but rarely do I get to experience the world around which a particular sport watch is designed in a literal way. But, last month, I had the distinct opportunity to take two high-performance machines out for a spin at the same time - the incredible Blancpain L-evolution Chronographe Flyback a? Rattrapante Grande Date (a mouthful if there ever was one) and the brand spanking new Lamborghini Aventador Roadster.   The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster 2 OF 73 Let's talk car first. The Aventador holds a special place in Lamborghini's half-century history. One of the few true unrelenting supercar manufactures, Lamborghini has long resided on the walls of adolescent boys the world over. But, incredible designs like the Miura and Countach do not always translate to sales, and while Lamborghini has always been synonymous with incredible performance and other-worldly design, it seemed as though there was consist

Font used by Patek for it's logo: Monotype Grotesque Regular
[I searched the forum, but it looks like this hasn't been covered before]Seeing the new PP book with the font so largely printed got me wondering what the font was... A quick Google search provided the answer: Monotype Grotesque Regular. The best links are on Wikipedia Foundry was an American company that developed a machine for typesetting, and Grotesque is one the fonts that was produced there, around 1926. It did not do as well as other Monotype fonts like Futura and Gill Sans, which had a cleaner look.Perhaps someone can identify the first use of this font by PP?J

Opinion on first Watch Purchase
I am 40 years old and I am about to buy my first watch. I have narrowed it down to the 5146g in slate dial with black strap or the aquanuaut 5167 with the stainless bracelet. I am torn.My dress at work is mostly biz casual and I wear suits some days and jeans on others. This will be my only watch and I would like something that I could give to my son one day although this will be an every day watch for me. I am not rich but I have put aside the money so cost is not a deciding factor between the two although I would like something that will hold value. Any opinions would be helpful and appreciated.
