Hands-On, Literally, With the Eone Bradley
If I were to ask you to picture a wrist watch, perhaps you'd picture an iconic design like a Submariner, your personal favorite watch or maybe even what you are wearing at the moment. In any of those cases, you are likely imagining a metal case with a crystal of some sort above a dial with at least 2 (or perhaps 1) hands. All of them, whether by Patek or by Timex use the same conventions for displaying time, and aesthetics that while possible wildly different use similar vocabularies of markers, shapes, textures, etc… Well, occasionally a watch comes out that breaks, at least partially, from the norm to create something truly different. Often, these watches are different for the sake of being different, but the Eone Bradley was designed for a very specific reason.Before getting into the watch itself, it's worth knowing the background story and where the name comes from. Watches for the blind have not been refined since.. well, now. There basically are watches that speak, which is

Hands-On: The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Chronograph, And More Thoughts On "In-House"
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Chronograph is a pretty unique offering nowadays – an under $10K chronograph with a great look, an in-house movement, and a very versatile design. It’s not a new watch – the Master Chronograph was first introduced five years ago, in 2010, and the movement – the Jaeger-LeCoultre self-winding chronograph caliber 751 – was introduced all the way back in 2005. At the time, it was introduced as the very first automatic chronograph ever produced by Jaeger LeCoultre, and while no one was exactly surprised to see one from JLC it was still greeted with a lot of fanfare, and rightly so – a new automatic chronograph movement from any manufacturer is always a big event, simply because self-winding chronographs are actually hard to design – as a witness to that just consider the fact that of all the complications, the very last to appear was the automatic chronograph, and that it showed up in 1969 which was the same year the firs

Don't you just hate incomings...
When you're not home to receive it?? Sadly I've got something shipping today for tomorrow. While I'd normally have it shipped to wherever I'm traveling, it's one of those crazy travel weeks consisting of 4 cities so I'd rather not risk it. Now I've got to wait until Friday! Yes, I could have waited to post but where's the fun in that?

Sub C or Sea Dweller 16600
I have been looking for the next watch to add to my current rotation and have narrowed it down to the Sub C (have not decided date or no date) or the Sea Dweller 16600. I know this has been asked before but I did not see anything recent when I searched. I like the idea of the updated bracelet and the glidelock clasp but I love the looks of the 16600. For those that have or have had both, what are your thoughts? Thanks for your input, below is a picture of my current rotation Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
