Bauhaus Style: New Junghans Max Bill Watches
Junghans has announced new additions to the Max Bill by Junghans collection. The notable feature of these new additions is their increased dimensions, while remaining true to the original Bauhaus design.The Bauhaus school of design began life as an art school in Germany in 1919, but went on to influence all the arts, architecture, typography, and industrial design for decades. Bauhaus is recognizable by the absence of ornamentation, and the form and function of an object working together seamlessly.An example of Bauhaus architecture further above, and a tripod chair by Max Bill. This is also Bauhaus.Bauhaus began as a school for industrial design, and while it's most associated with furniture and architecture, it originally didn't have an architecture component at the school at all. The architectural output from 1919-1927 was quite small. It was only after 1927, after Max Bill had left the school and moved to Zurich, that architecture became a focus, but the style is characterized by s

Magrette Taniwha Engraved Gold Inlaid Watch
Before you is the latest limited edition watch from New Zealand watch maker Magrette. This is the first look at the now available Magrette Taniwha watch. Hours of hand engraving has gone into the beautiful fully decorated case, which has been taken up a step with gold inlay decoration. It is a long process with many steps to yield the final result. I personally love the Magrette engraved watches. Not only does no other watch company offer watches like this, but the engravings are beautiful. The designs have characters and scenes, with emotions and the high skill of the engraver.If you aren't the type of person who is used to wearing "decorated" things, I suggest trying it out. There is a special feeling of worth you get from it. Living in an industrialized world, we are so devoid of things hand decorated, or even decorated at all. We are used to things being just good enough, or often not even good enough at all. Having some decorated object adorn our outfits is quite the exotic treat

Deployment Question
Does anyone know if the deployment from a 26470 bracelet can be fitted to a strap?I am trying to see if this can work (strap does not have to be an AP branded strap) as I prefer the deployment style for the user friendly nature.

first Breitling post SA/Isofrane content PICS!!
ok guys/gals.. i typically hang in the rolex area but i decided to give the Breitling some love today. I had this Isofrane strap laying around and thought its a shame to not use such (IMO) an expensive rubber strap. it tones the weight down a ton and makes for a real comfy fit. i must say while im not a HUGE fan of the design of the Isofrane, it is about the best quality rubber strap i have owned. now when they offer this in 20mm i will be picking one up for my Marathon SAR. feel free to give me some feed back but mainly posted these so you all could see a different look and it might be something someone might like to do to their SA. i bet you havent seen this combo. i dont hate it.
