Simply Named Eterna KonTiki Diver Is Amazing And Heralds Eterna's Return To The USA
Good ol' Eterna. I am so happy they are soon to be officially distributed in the US once again. Eterna is not well known, and that is a shame. The company actually started ETA, which makes most of the movements in all Swiss watches. ETA was later sold to the Swatch Group. Eterna also makes all the Porsche Design watches. In my opinion, it is one of the most underrated and unacknowledged brands out there. If their marketing department is paying any attention, that ought to change soon when they re-enter the US market.The first watch to be sold along with their KonTiki Anniversary model, is the "Eterna KonTiki Diver." This watch is actually a few years overdue, having been announced a while ago. For me, this is the best combination of features and elements one could ask for in a modern looking technical dive watch. It is an accurate chronometer, it is easy to read, has a power reserve, and has a nice sophisticated look that does not make you look like you drive a large truck everywhere.

Sky Dweller Witching Hour is Near!!!
For those with Sky Dwellers the day of dread is upon us. At midnight tomorrow your watches will no longer show the correct date and will need adjustment. I'm curious as to what will show on the date when the date flips; will it simply show 29? At any rate, not desiring to play with my watch in advance, I'll wait until tomorrow midnight to find out. I must admit to adjusting the time on mine today and placing the bezel in position 1 to verify that it is the position for changing the date and that it doesn't stop the second had. Have fun with your once a year experience!!!!

First Rolex Incoming and AD's stock
Watches have always been a style statement and makes anybody excited, and I would wear all of them with pride as a kid. My first, when I was 6-7, I remember was a cheap quartz(few dollars) with brown leather band gifted to me by mom. But then I wore it out and it finally broke. I didn't knew much about watches and quartz or digital watches were the only thing available. The most famous watch you could buy was Citizen or Casio in the Himalayan Nation.Fast forward some decades, I started looking up watches again and then got hooked on to the mechanical watches' simple way of showing time, using complicated mechanical thing. Honestly, I didn't even knew that was possible. Something about those moving gears, and all the other parts, working together to make the second hand sweep so smoothly, and you just fall in love with them. I did hear about Rolex and would have never imagined to buy one!Then, I saw one on my colleagues wearing a Rolex GMT with black dial and bezel. It was a piece of pe
