Horage Autark Review
A few months ago, I wrote an article about a Swiss brand that had quietly developed their own, fully independent (nothing from ETA, Swatch, etc��) serially produceable automatic movement over the course of 7 years. At first, I didn't really believe what I saw, but after reading up and speaking to one of the owners of the brand, I was amazed. They were really doing something extraordinary, though not many people, at least in the US-blogosphere, were talking about them.The brand was Horage, and their goal was to kickstart a line of watches that used their in-house movement the K1. Well, technically the movement is made by Accurat Swiss, but it's all under one umbrella. They succeeded, which will help get this movement out there. But, this wasn't the only watch Horage had made. In fact, they had an existing line of watches already for sale, manufactured by them. Some of these watches used sourced movements, but one featured their K1, the Autark, which is German for independent.On top of be

Why Does Patek Do This?
Just wondering something about Patek. I have nothing but respect for the brand and for what they have invented over the years in the world of horology, But something is really making me Most people would agree when you see pressure pins holding together a watch bracelet instead of threaded screws, this is a less expensive and easier way to manufacture a watch bracelet. Threading screws and polishing them takes time and more money as apposed to a pressure pin.For those of you who don't know what pressure pins are, They are long thin steel pins that are smooth and have no threading on them.

All the fine watches I have owned over the years, none used pressure pins anywhere on the watch or bracelet.I have just started developing my taste for patek's less conservative line, the nautilus collection. I like sportier watches and less dressy watches.Now, one thing I have noticed on patek's brace

40mm or 42mm help
Hey guys, first off, thanks for all of the help you've provided me in the past - I've been looking for my first panerai for a while, but came into this without knowing much about the brand, so I appreciate everyone's help and patienceMy question is this...I really love the look of the 610. However, I find the size a bit too large at 45mm. Have they ever made a simple two hand, sandwich dial, radiomir case with wire lugs in the 40mm to 42mm range? There is something about the simplicity of the 3/6/9/12 case and no sub seconds that I love, just wish it was smaller than 45mm.

Tool Watch
So I have learned here that working out with a watch on is for tools. But what about when you are in a hotel workout room, there's no one else there, and the alternative is to leave your watch in the room?Can I get an exception? LolIMG_0569.JPGSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
