Gustafsson & Sjogren Bifrost Isbla Damascus Steel Dress Watch
According to Gustafsson & Sjogren, the watchmaker/bladesmith combo team out of Sweden, the Bifrost represents their first dress watch collection. I sort of have to disagree with that premise, as many of their other watches could have easily seen dress watch duty (depending on your style). A good example is the superlative Gustafsson & Sjogren Winter Nights watches (hands-on here) that combine a lot of design and watchmaking nerd appeal.Having said that, the upcoming Bifrost collection will certainly suffice as a casual or dress watch, if you feel that one of Johan Gustafsson's "high contrast" individually-made Damascus steel dials is suitable to pair with your suit.

Pulsar Men's Automatic Watch Winner Follow-Up
Back in August (of 2010) I offered this Pulsar (by Seiko) Men's Automatic watch as a giveaway.

You can check out the winner's review of the Pulsar Ref. PS2004 here. I am always glad to hear from another happy giveaway recipient. Note that the above pictures are taken by him.

The first mechanical versions of the Laureato were released in 1995, with the GP caliber 3100 and this year, GP is going back to that year for inspiration, with the 2016 edition of the Laureato automatic. The vintage Laureato self-winding models are well thought of by GP fans and collectors, but the appeal of the Laureato has always been a bit niche. Does the new 2016 model have what it takes to become the break-out, entry level icon Girard-Perregaux needs? Let's take a look. 1 OF 7 The first thing worth knowing about this new version of the Laureato is that it's definitely larger than the original self-winding model from 1995, which was 36 mm in diameter and just under 8 mm thick.
