JS Watch Islandus 45 Years Anniversary Edition Honors A Watch Maker
It is not unheard-of for a watch brand to issue a special edition of one of their watches to commemorate some special event - say, the 50th anniversary of a model being released, or the company having been in business for so many years. What is less common is to celebrate a milestone being hit by the master watch maker for the brand - but that is precisely what we have with the JS Watch Islandus 45 Anniversary Edition.In this case, the man being honored is Gilbert �� Guej��nsson who has been working on watches since 1970, when he started off in a provincial repair shop in Reykjavik. Since then, he's opened his own workshop (1977) and of course became the master of watch making for JS Watch Co., where he and his shop have been winning awards.So, what sort of watch do you create for a man such as this? Well, you start off with one of one their classic styles (the Islandus), and then you do some rather spectacular upgrades. For instance, take a look at the dial. The dial is made of solid St

Wanted: The Ultimate Wearable Weight Loss And Health Data Device
Sometimes you need to do more than merely appreciate or discuss what currently exists, you need to ask for things to be made. There are a variety of watches from makers such as Suunto, Polar, Linde Werdelin, and other that will tell you your body's temperature, and heart rate. With that information they will also attempt to tell you other information such as how many calories you are burning and peak exercise levels. But what if there existed a device that could turn weight loss and fitness into a more exact science.Part of the problem with weight loss and diets these days is the rather ambiguous concept of what you need to go to get results. "Eat less, and exercise more" is the basic formula. But eat how much less, and exercise how much more? Without having the answers to these questions, people are faced with an unclear route to achieving their goals. We know how many calories are in a pound (roughly 3500), but what we don't have a good idea of most of the time is how many calories a

Omega Seamaster 300GMT or a used Panerai?
Hey Fellas,I've been eye-ing the 300GMT for quite some time now and have been putting some money away on the side for one. I was planning on making the purchase through watchuseek's forum AD which saves me considerably. Now, I just began looking at the Panerais and have been very intrigued. They are rather large at 44mm and is borderline on my wrist, but they still look very cool and are quite a bit different from the watches I have now. I have a Rolex Sub Date and a Tag Monaco ala Mcqueen in blue with croc band. Lately, I've been smitten with the band...So, a brand new 300GMT or spend quite a bit more on a pre-owned Panerai?
