Citizen Satellite Eco-Drive Watch: Gets Time From Space
Atomic clock radio signal syncing watches are so last year. Citizen just decimated the coolness factor of those watches with the Satellite Eco-Drive watch. This timepiece isn't just a concept, but will actually be produced as a limited edition later this year - and may have its tech show up in later watches. In a nutshell, the watch keeps its time super accurate from syncing with the navigational satellites that orbit Earth as opposed to syncing with radio signals that are broadcasted from local atomic clocks.Atomic clocks lose one second of time every 100,000 years or something like that. Maybe even longer. The point is that you'll be long dead before they are off by even a fraction of a second. Your standard quartz watch movement is accurate to within about 15 seconds a month. Syncing to an atomic clock is a good idea, and has traditionally been done in watches that do this by relying on radio signals that atomic clocks emit. However, there aren't atomic clocks all over the world, an

Historical Perspectives: That Time An Imperial Russian Faberg�� Egg With A Vacheron Constantin Watch Inside Was Discovered At A Midwestern Flea Market And Became The Most Expensive Timepiece On Earth
In one of those stunning stories only made possible by the Internet, in 2012 a man turned to Google to search for "Vacheron & Constantin" and "egg" to find that the jewel-encrusted gold egg housing a Vacheron watch he purchased for $13,302 in the early 2000s at a Midwestern flea market was in fact an 1887 birthday gift for Tsar Alexander III from?Peter Carl Faberg��. It has now sold privately for millions,?likely?making it the most expensive timepiece on earth.The unnamed individual stumbled on a 2011 Telegraph article entitled "Is this ��20 million nest-egg on your mantelpiece?" The egg was the third of 54 Faberg��?eggs owned by the Russian royal family and had been lost since 1922. It is recorded that in 1922 this egg was transferred from the Kremlin Armoury, which had confiscated the eggs in 1917 when the Tsar was overthrown, to the special plenipotentiary of the Council of People's Commissars, Ivan Gavrilovich Chinariov. Beyond the written records, a 1902 photograph of the egg on exhi

A little birdie tells me to get ready for a new updated 42MM offshore…… I am extremely happy about this, for me I think 42MM is a perfect size. Now, lets hope my birdie knows what he's flapping his wings about!

2255 Electric Blue Elegant Strap
I own an 'Electric Blue' 2255 on a Speedmaster bracelet, and would like an elegant strap to wear every now and then. But nothing speaks to me. Blue crocodile would be a choice perhaps. Would like to keep in no higher than $150...unless it just really knocks me out.Any suggestions, photo's...?

Alternative to 5167
I love the Aquanaut and will own one some day, but I've been looking at the GO Seventies Panorama Date which is about half the price of the 5167 and has many similarities IMO. I'm not going to say that the GO is nearly as amazing a watch as the 5167, but it is still a wonderful piece. And the gray dialed GO on rubber especially seems very similar to the Aquanaut IMO. Similar case shape, simple design, sporty yet classy aesthetic, very versatile. Am I crazy in thinking that the two pieces are similar? Do you guys think it's a worthy alternative for some time until I decide to move into a much higher price range which the PP is in? Thanks guys.Sent from my Nexus 7 using TapatalkPics from the interweb
