What Do The Patek Philippe 3582 & The Apple Watch Have In Common?
I've been enjoying the Apple Watch for more than a few days at the time this post was written �C and it has got me thinking a lot about not just the future of electronic wrist watch functionality, but also watch design overall. What I've been most interested in is not only how smartwatch design will continue to evolve, but also what design precedents came before the Apple Watch that either helped inspire it or that it appears to coincidentally resemble.So, with that in mind, I felt it was a good idea to put together this fun little article on the odd similarities between the obscure Patek Philippe Ellipse Ref. 3582 (3582G) and the Apple Watch. I am actually rather convinced Apple was not at all inspired by the Patek Philippe 3582 during the design of the Apple Watch �C so I am not suggesting that this rare Patek Philippe Ellipse is some type of direct design ancestor of the Apple Watch. Rather, I am suggesting that watch design is both cyclical and so diverse that it is often inevitable

New Blue Speedy
Here are some quick shots of my new Omega Speedmaster Racing automatic with the super nifty blue dial. One of the most unique and cool shades of blue I have ever seen on a watch!Movement is the latest column wheel co-axial chronograph with the silicone balance spring. The bracelet is also the newest version with the screws and pins instead of the pins and collars and the lume is the in-vogue blue color.Thanks for looking.Cheers,-Marc

Do these lug holes look right?
Hi guys, I've noticed that the lug holes on my 5980 look very close to the edge. Is this normal? I would have thought they'd have been inset a bit more to make sure no issues if the case ever gets polishedI think it probably is OK, but it's started to eat away at me a little bit so looking for some assurance. Thanks.

She seemed entirely unimpressed and almost dismissive, I found it hurtful!
