Back to the Future: The New Hamilton Pulsomatic Automatic
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the world's first LED digital watch, made by Hamilton. The American brand is celebrating the invention of the technology that revolutionized the watch industry with the new Hamilton Pulsomatic, a digital timepiece with Swiss craftsmanship in the form of an automatic movement. The original Pulsar was named after the astronomical bodies that emit precise radio pulses. Hamilton’s new Pulsomatic has a similar look, though with LCD and not LED display, and the design still looks futuristic. The “omatic” part of the new name represents what may be the new model’s most interesting feature: it is powered by an innovative Swiss automatic movement, the H1970. Fully charged, the watch offers a 120 day power reserve.The Pulsomatic also offers a sapphire crystal, a display back for viewing the unique engine (shown below), and 50 meter water resistance. Available on a rubber strap or a steel bracelet, both versions are priced at $1545.

4N Sapphire Planet Watch
The unique case shape and digital time display of the 4N watch has been around for a few years now, and for 2015 it receives its most notable �C and somewhat unexpected �C update yet: the 4N Sapphire Planet wraps the original digital-mechanical movement?in a sapphire crystal case."Sapphire." Even?the way it sounds is something special: it comes off?as something?expensive and refined, and it, in fact, is considered by many to be an essential?component?of a?quality watch. Despite all that, sapphire crystal is a relatively common material?in watchmaking, found even in?couple-hundred dollar timepieces �C and up, of course. It is used for the front and sometimes the back crystals for its remarkable scratch resistance and superior optical quality, when compared to mineral crystals or plastics.?Sapphire crystal, however, does become?a much more luxurious and genuinely exotic?material when it is used not?just for the front crystal, but also as?the full case of a watch.?The 4N Sapphire Planet?offe

Paranoid about my 2 week Royal Oak Chronograph.
Hello my fellow watch lovers, I am asking for your help in a bid to end my paranoia. As you may know, there is a danger zone of when NOT to change the date using the quick-set date function. Usually for most watches it is 8PM-3AM. However, for the 26331ST Royal Oak Chronograph with the calibre 2385 movement, it is 6PM-1AM. Anyways, I was being careless about 2 days ago and was too busy admiring my new watch. I unscrewed my crown and used my quick-set date function to advance the date by 3 or 4 days forward before realizing that the I was using my quick-set date function whilst my watch was displaying 9PM and not 9AM. When I realized my careless mistake, my heart sunk and I pretty much contemplated suicide. I know that if you advance the date whilst in the danger zone, you risk damaging your movement. After my mistake, I have been extremely paranoid that I ruined my movement so much so that I started to scrutinize every single detail of the watch since, especially the date function. Dur

PCLs...... Arghhh
I know there are lots of posts about this, but wanted to share my pics and polish. Wore this one for a whole week.I have to say that I hate PCLs...... I gave it a light polish Sunday. I was careful to not get anywhere near the brushed stainless. So much better!I'll always keep this watch as it was my first Dayotna but I will never buy a watch with PCLs again!I think the platinum in my Everose Daytona is more scratch resistant.....

Nice shot
Hi guysI'm in love with the 16710 right now and keen on pulling the trigger on one. Already have a few other models with Swiss made dial so wondering if I should go for the tritium dial and hope that it'll age to a nice patina or just go for a newer piece with the Swiss made dial. I'm a newbie here and hope to get some advice on this. Any thoughts? Tks in advance.
