FHH Introduces the Watch Tablet Sales Tool
Fine watch aficionados often lament that they know more about the timepieces in the case than the sales associates behind the counter. The Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie (FHH) addresses this issue with the Watch Tablet, a thin touchscreen tablet PC that puts vast amounts of watch-related information at the associates’ fingertips. The Watch Tablet contains information on many topics, including 29 FHH partner brands, watchmaking and gemology, manufacturing and craftsmanship, and watch movements and complications. All content is interactive and much of it is illustrated with animation. The Watch Tablet is updated regularly via the FHH's secure content management system. You can learn more at HauteHorlogerie.org.

Cartier Calibre Astrotourbillon Watch
Over the last few years my interest and respect for Cartier has really grown. Sure, a lot of their timepieces are mass produced, but they have a penchant for good, lasting design. No doubt I am not a fan of all of their watches, but little escapes from their manufacture without being really good for at least some people. Good design - as I am learning more and more - is not easy. Designing something to look outstanding and really cool for 5 minutes is really not that hard. Executing a design that looks good each time you look at it, for years, isn't so easy. In this department, Cartier has succeeded for a long time. I find myself wondering what their secret is.Interestingly enough, watches with "good" designs don't affect you right away. You might look at them a bit ambiguously at first. Then, after paying attention to them for a while, the quality of the design grows on you. I have never looked at a Cartier watch once and been like, "Winner!" It takes me a while to appreciate them.

A 1950s Tissot And The Appeal Of The World Time Complication
World Time watches hold a certain fascination to us here at the 'Dink - we've told you this before - especially when we get to the world-timers from the 1950s and earlier. Louis Cottier made a name for himself creating the first true-world time movement, and countless brands employed him and his team to create pieces for them. We're talking Patek, Vacheron, and Rolex, to name a few you may have heard of (of course, Aggasiz also used Cottier and this watch was actually given to the leaders of the allied forces after the Second World War).But, a vintage world timer from Patek, VC, or Rolex will cost you some serious money, and that is why we are here today with a 1950s Tissot that has the same appeal for a fraction of the price. In fact, this is a fantastic original example of a Tissot WT dating to the mid 1950s. When you press the button at 2 o'clock, the inner disc rotates so the wearer may calibrate it to home-time. Once done, time may be read in the 24 timezones
