DeWitt Academia Quantieme Perpetuel Nebula GMT Watch Available On James List
Back a few years ago when the money flowed like wine - the luxury watch world was known to take generous, deep sips from the pool. It was a gold age of new ideas, brands and designs. A promising brand that might not reach the next decade is DeWitt. I've always liked the majority of their designs, and found their philosophy intriguing. This is one of their coolest models in my opinion. A neat looking perpetual calendar watch with a GMT hand. Sure, it is an expensive watch, but it is a relic from an era - communicating the exuberance of an era, which hearkening back to the roaring 20s with its art deco look.The 43mm case came in two variants (matched to a black or white textured dial). The cases either had white or rose gold, mixed with black ceramic and polished titanium. I've checked out these pieces before, and they are nicely made with really bold designs. I love the quasi-checkered bezels iconic to the brand.The five symmetrical subdials are beautifully arranged with straight forwar

Longitude
If you've never read Longitude by Dava Sobel you absolutely need to. It's the true story of how John Harrison solved the age old problem of how to navigate the seas by being able to identify longitude with a reliable and accurate chronometer.I read it twice a year and never get tired of this fascinating history lesson.

Pushers on the 5164. Question for 5164 Owners.
Hey guys, was just wondering about the Pushers on the 5164 Travel Time.I feel they are quite easy to push in without much resistance, sometimes when I wear my suit, I get surprised to find they have somehow been pushed possibly by the cuffs or the suit cuffs, and have to adjust the time back myself.Do any 5164 owners have this problem?Also, the pushers don't feel like they have much resistance, is it truly a 120m waterproof watch? Would you guys wear it to shower everyday? or even swim?

Favorite Calatrava
Still my favorite after 5yrs

The most versatile sports watch
My trusted 5711/1A has been from the office to the ocean with me and now has battled the Nordic winter with minus 20C and is still fresh as a daisy (oh and yes, I do now realise they were the wrong golves to bring!!).This is, of course IMHO, the greatest steel sports watch.
