Initial Impressions: Techn�� Sparrowhawk II
*Check out our full review of the Techne Sparrowhawk II here.?The Techn�� Sparrowhawk II is a watch that we've had on our radar for sometime, starting when the brand showed an early video of the watch's unique meca-quartz movement in action. A movement that combines quartz based time with a mechanical chronograph. So when they were fully unveiled not too long ago, we had to jump on getting a review model, which Franck J. of Techn�� kindly provided. There are a few reasons why we were so enthusiastic about the watch that we think our readers will be enthusiastic about it too.For one thing, the brand itself is fairly young, having been founded in 2009, and has a very different philosophy from other brands out there, a philosophy that worn&wound can certainly get behind. They believe in smart designs that blend function, history and strong aesthetics. They use movements and manufacturing processes that demonstrate a passion for innovation. They promote sustainability and good labor prac

Introducing The Piaget Altiplano Chronograph, Now The Thinnest Hand-Wound Flyback Chronograph (And I
Here it is people. This is a major new introduction from Piaget, and it is really impressive stuff. Piaget is known for making the thinnest complicated watches in the world. Actually, they also happen to make the thinnest mechanical watch in the world, period. Today, they add a major introduction to their revered Altiplano line with a new in-house, ultra-thin flyback chronograph. This is the real deal. 2 OF 9 This 41 mm chronograph features the new Piaget caliber 883P, the thinnest hand-wound flyback chronograph ever made. The depth of the whole movement is just 4.65 mm thick, with a power reserve of 50 hours and 3Hz beat rate. But just because it's thin doesn't mean Piaget skimped out on anything – as I mentioned it's a flyback, with vertical clutch and column-wheel. 3 OF 9 This impressive new caliber is finished with circular Co?tes de Gene?ve, a circular-grained mainplate, lovely bevelled bridges, and engraved mainplate with the Piaget

AP Clearwater Service experience
I just wanted to share my recent service experience with AP Clearwater and would like to know your thoughts and opinion of what to do.I sent in my 15300 RO for general service but more importantly to fix a couple things. It was running a bit slow and wanted it adjusted to spec, but the biggest issue was there was a small dirt/dust spec by the 55 minutes marker.The person I communicated with assured me all this would be resolved and suggested to do the movement over haul and water resistance service. I agreed and there was no further discussion until 3 months later when it was ready to ship back.I get the watch back and the mark is still there. I contact AP see what happened they said “On the previous repair file the mark on the dial was already addressed as best as possible without risking or causing any damages to the dial.”The issue I have is this was not communicated that it was not completely removed. They later suggested to have the dial replaced but would need to pay

What to do with $10,500
This sum of cash, whilst not insignificant, cuts out all the PM pieces. Include old or new, fat and slim. At the moment I am umming and ahhhhing (a lot of ahhhiiin) between 16710 pepsi or coke ($10,500 in good nick), GMT2 LN, GMT BLNR, Hulk and the IWC Pilot Mark XVIII. Let me know. For wearing and owning forever, not for reselling later. You'll only make money on watches through luck, or by being Paul Newman.PS I already own a Submariner 16610.
