Romain Jerome Space Invaders Watches
The best part of these timepieces is easily the box. I wasn't allowed to take pictures, but Romain Jerome showed me a sneak preview of the Space Invaders watches back in March. The idea is to recall some of the fun and playfulness, as well as the novelty of the late 1970s video game. The box is actually a light box and you place the watch inside of it. Actually the watch is already placed inside of it and there are no doors, just a peep hole. If you want to remove the watch - consider it a fun challenge (like the game). Inside the box is a black light, then when lit illuminates the lume on the dial of the Space Invader watches. It is cool and fun, and perhaps better with LSD.For me, the funnest part of the Space Invader watch story is process of Romain Jerome getting the licensing for the product from Taito in Japan. No one has ever made a high-end watch involving a video game before (I've joked about it, but this is the first legit one). By the way, I first talked about these watches
Introducing: The Baume & Mercier Five Minute Repeater Pocket Watch And Promesse Jade Timepiece
This is a very special year for Baume & Mercier – the firm is celebrating its 185th anniversary. (The company reckons its history from 1830, when brothers Louis-Victor and Célestin Baume opened a watch dealership under the name, "Frères Baume," in Switzerland. The name Mercier is that of Paul Mercier, who with William Baume incorportated the company uner the name Baume & Mericer in Geneva, in 1918.) In order to mark the occasion, Baume & Mercier has chosen to introduce, at Watches & Wonders in Hong Kong, two new timepieces. One, an homage to Asian and Chinese culture, is the new Jade Promesse watch; the other is a very interesting new five minute repeater pocket watch – the Clifton 1830 – in red gold. 1 OF 3 The five minute repeater is a type of chiming complication which actually pre-dates the minute repeater (however, watches that strike the time "in passing" rather than on demand, as a repeater does, a

Omega Speedmaster in 40mm
I can't wear anything bigger than 40mm watch. Is there a listing of model that comes in 40mm size? I see so many speedmaster which looks the same, but listed as different size. I'm confused :)Thanks,
Aquanaut for small wristers
Hi all,Have always set my eye on a 5711 as my ultimate grail, but with the onslaught of new Aquanaut owners I must say my interest is being piqued.. Whatever with the almost unanimous consensus that it is the most comfortable daily wearer around..For me fit is key (which is why I have been disappointed with many previous targets like the AP Jumbo), especially with my chicken sized 6.0 inch wrist..Can I get feedback from Aquanaut owners with similarly small wrists? How is the fit, comfort and wearability? Is there any gap between the rubber strap and the wrist, like there is between straps for AP watches?Would really appreciate pictures as well!! Have tried it on at the AD but unfortunately as they cannot cut the strap, I have no idea how it is when appropriately sized..Appreciate that the Nautilus is universally lauded as being more iconic, but if the Aquanaut offers much greater comfort, that might just swing me towards it..Thanks all!!
