Tutima Begins Deliveries of Its Hommage Minute Repeater
In summer 2011, Germany-based Tutima, known chiefly for its modestly priced pilots’ watches, unveiled a watch-world first: the first minute repeater wristwatch whose entire mechanism was built entirely in the German watchmaking town of Glash��tte. As of the beginning of this year, the company announced, deliveries of the eagerly awaited timepiece have finally begun.Tutima, a company that traces its history back to the 1920s, spent three years developing the movement for the watch, Hommage Caliber 800, incorporating several elements distinctive to Glash��tte watchmaking, such as a three-quarter plate and engraved balance cock (here, with a G Clef to indicate the watch’s melodious chimes). Since the watch’s introduction nearly two years ago, Tutima has made a few small, mostly aesthetic changes. The surfaces of the movement’s plates and bridges are now in rose gold, which harmonizes better with the case materials for the two models (one in rose gold, one in platinum

Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec Rising Hours Watch
SIHH 2013 will see the release of a brand new version of the now well-known Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec watch. I find it rather interesting to see how Montblanc continues to explore and expand this collection that started the in-house made Montblanc movement watch collection. Made in Le Locle, timepieces like the Nicolas Rieussec collection represent the in-house made mid-range of watches in the Montblanc collection. Above them are the Minerva Villeret produced Montblanc watches.The Nicolas Rieussec Rising Hours evolves the design of the dial to play around with the complications once again. Gone is the second time zone, but added in is a day of the week indicator opposite the date. The off-centered time display is where the real difference can be found. Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec watches typically have day/night (AM/PM) indicators, but this model offers this function in a much more beautiful way. The time dial has a normal minutes hand, but now comes with a wandering disc to indicate t

Got my vintage Seamaster re-dialed and running
Finally, I got my Seamaster back in my hands. It belonged to my late father and wasn't running, had a cracked crystal and missing stem and crown, not to mention the degraded dial due to moisture from the stem tube being open. I think the decision to get it re-dialed and in black was a good one (I'm not selling it, so re-sale wasn't a consideration) even though it is a big no-no in the purist community. Plus, black and gold is an incredible combination, along with a new black leather strap.Now the bad. There is a piece of lint and some specs of dirt trapped under the crystal. Some visible with the nekked eye. The stem was rubbing against the case and binding, so I had to bend it to take out the wobble. He used a cheap, generic gold tone crown (watch is solid 14K). He buffed out the hands and didn't re-lume it, so It doesn't match the re-lume of the dial (was expecting new hands!). It loses 30 secs / day. So, to say the least, it was a sloppy job all around. He couldn't eve

Is the small seconds hackable on p5000 mvmt?
Anybody know if this is possible? My 510 owner manual doesnt mention it and when setting it only the hr and minute hand are stopped.
