MeisterSinger Circularis Debuts New Bespoke Movement With 5-Day Power Reserve
We have come to know MeisterSinger as the maker of more uniquely styled single-hand watches, famous for their arguably strange-looking, and yet surprisingly legible dials. The new Meistersinger Circularis brings?no?updates whatsoever to that easily recognizable face, but rather, it?redefines what is behind it: a new and unique movement with twin in-series mainspring barrels and 5 days of power reserve.The MeisterSinger Circularis will be available in a 43 millimeter wide stainless steel case, and?either an ivory, sunburst silver, or dark blue colored dial. Other than the rather large case, there is nothing unusual here, so let's?get down to business and discuss the?"bespoke" MSH01 movement that renders this release a very important one in the history of the brand.MeisterSinger claims that this bold new movement was designed from scratch?by the brand's "long-standing cooperation partner in Switzerland." Sure, it is no news that?the?watch industry (much like any other in the world) is hi

Urwerk EMC Watch: For Mobile Accuracy Tweaking
Urwerk has finally unveiled its EMC watch after teasing the movement back in May. If you'll recall, the EMC (Electro Mechanical Control) watch is a mechanical timepiece with a uniquely designed electronic module that acts as a rate measuring tool. On top of that, the movement has a fine adjustment screw that allows for you to adjust the rate results of the watch yourself. Confused? In short, Urwerk EMC is a watch with a movement you can fine tune yourself (for accuracy) and comes with a built-in tool that measures how accurate it is. Nothing like this has even been done before, and perhaps, no one ever will again.Watch service people and watchmakers use electronic timing tools to measure how accurate mechanical movements are. When watch movements are produced they are initially "regulated" and things like shock, temperature, etccan change how well a watch movement is regulated over time. Most watches should be put on timing machines each few years and potentially adjusted by skilled ha

Initial Impressions: Uniform Wares 300
*Check out our full review of the Uniform Wares 300 here.?The Uniform Wares 300?Chronograph is the current top of the line model offered by the relatively young English brand, which they were kind enough to lend us for a review. I mentioned them not too long ago when they released their newest model, the 150, but this is the first chance I've had to really experience wearing one of their watches. The 300 comes in a simple, elegant and understated package that consists of an uncoated gray paper sleeve over a matte rubberized paper box (the paper itself has a sort of soft, rubbery coating). The watch sits in a contour cut dense foam that holds the watch securely and could definitely be used for travel. Understated is the key word here, as the packaging well describes the nature of the watch itself. Uniform Wares is not one for the flashy, maintaining a line of watches and a brand image that are defined by their restraint and devotion to a clean graphic design aesthetic.? The 300 is a stu

Which Royal Oak or Royal Oak Offshore?
Hi,I'm considering a Royal Oak or Royal Oak Offshore. After a few weeks of research, trying a few watches on etc, I've narrowed it down to a first generation Offshore (ref. 25721ST), the new 25th anniversary reissue (ref. 26237ST), Elephant (Ref. 26470ST) or Messi (ref. 26325TS) in steel.My first questions is if it makes any sense investing twice the money on the reissue (26237ST) of the original model (25721ST) in relation to future and long term value. Messi is a Limited Edition, which can be found at around the same price used as the reissue of the original Offshore. The Elephant is the joker at this point, and probably the worst investment of the bunch.On the wrist, I'm sure I will be pleased with any of these alternatives. What things boils down to then is the potential future demand and value, which is always a guessing game to a degree.Any advice are most welcome!

Royal Oak 15450 - very impressed!
Hi allTried this on today and am very impressed. The dial is unbelievable - photos don't do it justice. I just loved everything about it, 37mm size, date, polished/brushed steel case and a very nice bracelet with solid deployment clasp. Anybody have any comments with regards to movement - is it reliable?Cheers Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
