MCT Sequential One S110 Watches
Unique Swiss watch maker MCT is sort of back on the scene after being quiet for a few years. The brand's famous Sequential One timepiece was developed by movement designer Denis Giguet, who later left the brand. When I last spoke to him he told me that he would be working full time at Van Cleef & Arpels of all places. MCT was recently scooped up by a new guy I believe and has been trying to get it back on track. The first step is to revitalize the Sequential One with some design variations. Here are the two new MCT Sequential One S110 watches.Each has the same wonderfully original manually wound movement that has a revolving retrograde minute hand and hour markers on triangular shutters. We first wrote about MCT here back in 2009 and there is a video there showing how the watch works - it is super cool. The minute counter moves sequentially in a clockwise manner as the hours change. There are four points on the dial that each can display three of the 12 hours of the day.Designer Fa

Edmond Pole Guardian Watches - Now With Bracelets!
A little over a year ago, Ariel showed you the Edmond Pole Guardian watch which features a very cool and rather unique AM/PM 24 hour dial complication using three rotating discs to align 24 hour time with a conventional 12 hour handset (video here). For those of you who weren't game on the rubber strap seen in the review, Edmond is now offering the?Pole Guardian with an optional bracelet and we think it nicely rounds out the design and makes for a more appealing overall package.Bumping up the rubber strap price from $1380 USD to $1540 USD, we definitely think the bracelet is worth the additional cash. This solid stainless steel bracelet is, sorry for the pun, the missing link in the Pole Guardian design and integrates beautifully into its short lugs. The Edmond Pole Guardian is an interesting, distinct and innovative sport watch that can certainly benefit from the addition of an OEM bracelet option. Also note that the bracelet is available for other Edmond watch models.Written by James

Owners Manual Changes?
Just noticed that my manual for my 5711 is for several different movements where as all my other manuals are specific to the calibre in that particular watch i purchased. Is this new or are all 5711 books like this?Here is both my 5711 and 5712 manuals... as you can see the one on top covers multiple watches and movements and is no longer specific to the Nautilus. Where as the 5712 manual only covers that single movement.

Other watches need variety too!
The Daysjust and Day-Date have a ginormous variety of versions, which includes: different sizes, many different dial colours, and a vast number of other options. Overall, there are dozens upon dozens of different Datejust and Day-Date models.This begs the question: why are other Rolex models, many of which are arguably even more iconic than the Datejust and Day-Date (such as the Submariner), not given this same type of treatment? I think it would be wonderful if, for example, the Submariner could be had in 38mm and with a multitude of different dial and bezel options. Does anyone know why this disparity exists between two Rolex models and the rest of them? Let's discuss
