Archimede Outdoor watch
The newest watch from German Archimede is the Outdoor. It is an evolution on some past designs and fits a very specific purpose. To understand the Outdoor you need to look back to a watch that I believe was the thematic influence for the Outdoor, the Timex Camper. These are meant to be outdoors friendly timepieces that are easy to read and durable. They are not meant to be much more, and sit in a sort of functional minimalist category.Size is 38.5mm wide in nice looking lugless steel case. It is rather thin at just 10.6mm thick. The case and watch is meant to be light for a steel watch. According to Archimede, the watch is 120 grams on the metal bracelet, and 70 grams on the leather strap. This is for active people don't want a heavy watch and don't want to wear a plastic watch. In a nutshell, this is a German daily beater that won't complain when you beat it up.The case has a sapphire crystal and is water resistant to 200 meters. The black dial has white text for very high contrast. T

Bring a Loupe: A Knockout Selection Of Vintage Chronographs From Eberhard, Heuer, And Universal Geneve
This week's Bring A Loupe is mostly about chronographs, one of the most useful (if not the most useful) complications out there. I could not resist featuring a couple of Heuer and Universal Geneve; they simply look too good!

A Heuer Camaro 73443, With Exotic Dial 1 OF 10 A Heuer Camaro had already made its way into our favorite watches under $5,000. While this example might set you above this budget, it really demonstrates the appeal of the Camaro, especially this reference 73443 with the date at 6 o'clock. Frankly, this is one of the best looking and best preserved Camaros I have seen in a long time, with a stunningly sharp case, and a warm patina that nicely complements the two orange hands. In addition, it comes with the original Gay Freres bracelet, sporting the correct HLA endlinks. This w

Belated Grand Prix Wrist Shots
Sorry guy's, should've known the true TRF protocol, WRIST SHOTS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN I took my iPad only on vaca to California, and obviously iPhone, it is very hard to post pic's, upload to server etc etc on them... Anyway enjoying it so much ! My piece literally looks like new in person, but due to the forged carbon and light settings/etc it makes the carbon look rough, which isn't the case.. Yes some of the sharper edges are smoother, but that's the nature of this, and I don't mind it at all, enjoy Not the greatest pic's yet, but a ton to come!Next to BEE
