Seiko Active Matrix EPD e-Ink: The Digital Watch Is Back In Style
The digital watch is back. Seiko's new Active Matrix EPD watch will get you excited about non analog quartz timepieces once again. Digital has been here all along you say? Yea, that is true, but no self-respecting watch lover would wear one unless doing the laundry, mowing the lawn, or engaging in some other highly pedestrian activity. Go to any country that is "watch civilized" (sorry fellow Americans, that doesn't include the US at this point), and wear a digital watch in a business meeting or with a suit. Sure that was OK in the 1980s, but that was 20-30 years ago. This new product from Seiko reintroduces you the hassle free lifestyle of the digital watch in a polished, and highly functional little package. The holy trinity here is a great display, always accurate time, and a battery that does not need changing. Read on for all that it does below.Seiko more or less invented the formal digital watch in the late 1970s. You know, decent looking metal case and bracelet matched with and

The Breguet Special Type XXI Chronograph In Platinum For The Only Watch Auction
Breguet has announced that it will be donating a unique Platinum Chronograph Type XXI to the Only Watch auction to raise money for Muscular Dystrophy. The new unique piece stems from the first chronograph made by Breguet in 1935, the type XX, which was created for the French military. 1 OF 1 The Only Watch Type XXI 3813 features a special flyback function featured on the original 1950s model. This allows for the chronograph to reset to zero and restart in one smooth motion. Additionally, the minute-register is centrally located allowing for easy reading. The automatic caliber 584Q/1 movement is housed in a platinum case for the very first time, which is what makes this piece unique. For more information please visit the Only Watch auction website.

Finally saw a Jumbo
I finally saw a Jumbo, in SS and in RG, never had before, just 15400, which for a moment I mistaked for a Jumbo, and to say the truth I didn't like it much, but the 15202 is something else, the proportions seem much better to me than 15400, I still prefer the dial and second hand of the 5711, but it is a stunner, hell just with a second hand I would maybe get one if ever I one day want a second SS blue dial watch, I have one in order which is a little too close to the 5711, it is clearly a stunner, what is incredible is that I saw it at the AP boutique and at chronopassion store, at 30 minutes intervals, the AP boutique doesn't have a list according to them, first come first served.I found the proportions to be perfect, finition and movement impeccable, when seeing the 15400 it did nothing to me, also saw the RG ultra thin skeleton, with date, on full RG, wow what a watch, the RG Jumbo next to it looks really boring in fact, if ever one day I want a full RG watch I think that would be

This Costco Infection is Spreading
So a little before Christmas I posted a pic of almost the same watch for sale at Costco in Cumming GA. Now today I'm at the one in Buford, GA and the price is jacked $1500 above the other one. Now the only diff. I see is the one above is the gold leafed dial. The other one from last week was not (see below)Not really a rant - just that this Xosco infection is spreading Sent from my iPhoneX using Tapatalk
