Konstanin Chaykin Carpe Diem Watch: Finally, An Hourglass For The Wrist
Second only to the common jest of placing a sundial on the face of a wristwatch, is the suggestion that there be an hourglass. Yes, the timing device of antiquity has a very low occurrence of actually being referenced on modern timepieces in any significant way. That perhaps is due to the fact that incorporating sand in a watch dial isn't always the best idea. Nevertheless, the enterprising mind behind the Russian watchmaker Konstantin Chaykin decided that he wanted to be the first person to do it. Behold the Konstantin Chaykin Carpe Diem, the first wristwatch with a mechanical hourglass on the dial.The last time we ventured to discuss hourglasses on watches-dealer was when Ikepod released the Marc Newson designed luxury hourglass. The hand-blown, high-end glass case contained held metal micro-beads rather than sand and made for a rather amazing pieces of functional luxury art.

Gently loved Omega SMP 2254.50 just in from David SW. I am using his photo of it as my cell phone snap doesn't do the watch justice. I hope he is ok with that. I am absolutely delighted with it. Thanks David!

First Rolex: Sub Hulk vs. DJ Dark Rhodium
hello out there so probaly my next trip will be to Amsterdam and honestly , i cant decide between 2 of the watches. both of them really beautiful for my taste. i am 28 years an im searching for the ideal watch for Casual, Dress, and gym time . 24/7 :) probaly after the purchase my next watch will be in the next 5-10 years, so i really checking carefully :)i think the Hulk is more Sportive , but on the hand more luxury deep an the shades of the green are wonderful. but maybe after a year it will be rdicilous (i dont know why, maybe because its not too formal and not too classic?)and regret that I did not take a watch that more traditionalmy concern if its really fit most events and dressing as well , the DJ classic, beautiful and should be fit to most occasions and dressing , but i find it little bit classic without a twist waiting for your comments and opnions :)pic from google:
