Menage Of Corum Skull Watches For Halloween
Halloween is my favorite childhood holiday for good reason; it attempts to imbue fantasy with reality for at least one day. And it is perfectly legitimate to do so. That is why I have been tempted on so many occasions to spend hundreds on fancy costumes.Likewise, Corum knows how to imbue a healthy amount of fantasy in their watches and make them perfectly legitimate luxury timepieces. Corum has released a number of interesting and high quality watches (many of them limited editions) over the years. For whatever reason, a large number of them have features a skull and other parts of a skeleton. They aren't spooky per se, but they are certainly avant garde and not for everyone. They are certainly for me though, and I love these mostly limited edition watches from Corum.Most of these watches are based on the Corum Bubble watch, with its tall domed sapphire crystals, and rounded shaped. Really, this are nice watches to hold and wear. You might be put off by their unorthodox looks at first,

Would you put your AP on a watchwinder?

I know that our wrists are the best watchwinders, but we only have 2 wrists, wear only 1 watch at a time, and a lot of us have more than 1 watch.I don't rotate my watches everyday, more so every 3-4 days or every week or so, and with the AP's power reserve ranging from 40-60 hours (with my ROC being 40 hours), it wouldn't allow me to leave it unworn over a weekend for example (if I take it off Friday night it'll be stopped by Monday morning).I used to have a Big Pilot so with a 7 day reserve I could rotate it without a watchwinder. However, now with a Sub and AP, wanted to see how others manage to rotate your watches.Both Sub and AP have screw-down crowns and date function, and I don't want to wear out the threads by unscrewing them every day to manually wind them to keep them running. So do you:a) use a watchwinder with your AP (or other watches with a screw-down c

My year of Rolex
It would be nice to hear stories of some special year which you had with Rolex hobby, please share Here’s mine, 2017:I got into Rolex in the beginning of this year, began to understand the brand and what Rolex watches really are. I got hyped right away when i saw so many references i really like. I started to lurk around TRF and joined, it has been hobby time since that day. Even that i come from Switzerland i was amazed about this wide culture around Rolex. And on the top this huge positive mind set this community has. I feel priviledged to find this, thank you once again.I started to check and get deeper knowledge of different Rolexes, totally felt i have some serious catching up to do. And the result is that at the time i have 7 Rolexes and one Tudor.First i got Explorer II:Precise, practical watch which is very comfortable. Has taken most of the wrist time and has been thru many situations with me so far. It is about reliability and being under the radar.Right after i had De
