Aloe Blacc Interview: Pop Star, Process Nerd, Watch Guy, Friend Of IWC
Pop stars and watches tend to make for a less-than-dynamic duo. All too often, when it comes to their watches, these celebrities make more misses than hits �C usually choosing the gaudiest, most expensive timepiece (or its replica fake) they can find. That's where Aloe Blacc stands head and shoulders above his peers. The dapper, staggeringly charismatic 35-year-old soul singer/hit songwriter might actually be coming up behind the likes of John Mayer as one of pop's more horologically savvy hip cats.That may be because Blacc (whose birth name is actually Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III) chose to align himself with one of horology's most respected names in fine Swiss watchmaking: IWC. An IWC timepiece isn't a mere status symbol, but a statement of refinement; if you choose an IWC for your wrist, it's not a default fashion choice, but the expression of a true manufacture. Instead, an IWC watch speaks to a certain seriousness of character, an insistence on quality and innovation; there's a cer

Blancpain Sp��cialit��s Tourbillon Diamants Watch
Diamonds for diamonds sake? Maybe not. Don't overlook the importance of ludicrously gilded timepieces in the haute joaillerie watch category. While such timepieces might wreak of excess, they are often times as complex, or more complex than the mechanical creations we so love. The process of choosing and cutting diamonds (not to mention setting them) is in credibly time consuming. All that in a white gold case with a automatic tourbillon mechanical movement - and you might just start saving up gold bars for this over $1.3 million impulse buy.Read my article on the Blancpain Sp��cialit��s Tourbillon Diamants Watch at Haute Living here.Blancpain watches on eBay here.See Blancpain watches on Amazon here.

Pastor Maldonado's Dad a Royal Oak Fan!!!
Pastor Maldonado from Venezuela won the Grand Prix of Catalunya today. At the time of the podium celebration they had a close up shot of his dad and I noticed he wears nothing but a gorgeous Royal Oak in SS. It looks like a 5402ST to me. However, it could also be a 15202 or a 15300. Not sure! What do you think?

Shock resistance of seamaster 300 master co axial
Anyone know the tolerances of the shock resistance? Dropped my new LE Spectre seamaster 300 about 3 or 4 feet onto carpet. Was not a hard hit, but saw it lost time after. The watch has been a little unpredictable - was loosing about a second a say when I got it, put on a winder started gaining about a second + or so a day. Then after one night, gained like 7 seconds in 12 hours. I then Let it run down and rest it and it was running +/- .02 seconds, then lost about .6 seconds in 5 1/2 hours after drop. This has th new Si14 balance spring. Any thoughts/experiences?
