A Week On The Wrist: The Hermes Dressage L��Heure Masqu��e
Some of the most original watch designs in recent years have come from a company that’s not, for the general luxury loving public, especially associated with watches: Hermès. However the company actually has a quite long history of offering timepieces under its name; the first Hermès labeled watches were actually sold at 24 Faubourg St.-Honoré in 1928, and the company had, for instance, relationships with companies as varied as Universal Geneve and Jaeger LeCoultre (in fact as recently as 2013, Hermès collaborated with Jaeger LeCoultre in the creation of an Atmos clock) of many years’ duration.

However, now with a Sub and AP, wanted to see how others manage to rotate your watches.Both Sub and AP have screw-down crowns and date function, and I don't want to wear out the threads by unscrewing them every day to manually wind them to keep them running. So do you:a) use a watchwinder with your AP (or other watches with a screw-down c
