2LMX Watch
Just announced is the new watch brand 2LMX with their first watchthe 2LMX. I think a model name will come later. The super cool mechanical timepiece is one of those things that helps me explain to people what I do when they ask "how is it that you write at least once a day on watches?" Because cool stuff like this keeps coming out. The watch is the brainchild of Arnaud Tellier. He is the former head of the Geneva Patek Philippe museum.Interesting that he and his pals went futuristic after he resided over classic and vintage pieces for so long. The 2LMX watch reminds me of the Cabestan Winch Tourbillon Vertical watch (a lot). These watches share concepts including the overall design. They both have vertically mounted tourbillons, they both have split dials, and they both have highly exposed cases and movements. More than a little bit of credit goes to Jean-Francois Ruchonnet for this design.The 2LMX movement uses four drums (two of them have drums within the drums) to indicate time digi
A Week On The Wrist: The Zenith El Primero Chronograph Classic
The El Primero Chronograph Classic from Zenith, a watch launched rather quietly at Baselworld 2015, caught my eye immediately. It reminded me of those old Zeniths of the 1950s, and in my belief, will do its part in reviving an entirely overlooked category of watches that I know people love, though we don't hear much about it – that of the in-house dress chronograph, under $10,000. Sure, you have your GPs, Pateks, Langes, and Vacherons, which are all truly stunning dress chronographs, but under or at $10K, all in-house chronographs that have any real meaning are big, bulky, sport watches. This Zenith is simple, elegant, and may just be (almost) perfect. Here are my thoughts after spending a week with this new Zenith El Primero Chronograph Classic. Zenith Does An About-Face, Sort Of 1 OF 18 I'll begin this review by discussing this watch within the context of the brand that produces it. Zenith, under the control of Mr. Jean-Claude Biver, has been a bit
First AP Inbound: Bracelet Sizing Tips 15400
Hey guys,After thinking about adding an AP to the collection for over three years, I finally decided to take the plunge.I have a new 15400 inbound this morning and the only thing I am uncertain about is the process of sizing the bracelet. I am 100% comfortable working on my Rolex bracelets and PAM straps, etc. So any tips you guys can provide for how to take a few links out would be greatly appreciated. More specifically...1) What is the correct size screwdriver? I am thinking 1.42) Can someone describe the method of attachment in greater detail? Is it a single screw style pin (like an oyster bracelet) or is it a two-part pin with screw heads on both ends that requires two screwdrivers?3) With a new Rolex, I will usually gently heat the bracelet under very hot water to loosen any factory loctite, etc and it works like a charm. Will that technique be sufficient here?And finally, any other tips/tricks you guys can offer I would be most appreciative of. Like I said, I am comfortable with
5712 as a daily/only watch?
Hi all,I've have been considering consolidating my small collection into one Patek Phillipe watch and wearing it daily. I am looking at a steel version of the 5712 and was wondering if any current/previous owners could shed some light on the watch.As I have never owned a Patek piece before, I was wondering whether the 5712 could be worn as a daily watch and whether it could withstand daily wear and tear.Is the 5712 as scratch prone as the AP Royal Oak models? Also, I am concerned that the movement may be a bit too fragile for me to wear it on a daily basis.Thanks in advance for any help.
Long Awaited Incoming
Well after waiting almost a year and not being able to find one of these here in Maryland anywhere, I finally caved and decided I didn't (couldn't) want to wait any longer. So here she is. Thanks to a flawless transaction with Takuya, my slightly used ( and by slightly I mean 11 days. I thought only person that bought a watch and then changed my mind a week later) my new SD43. This thing is definitely all that I hoped for and wanted. I loved the JC DSSD but it was just too thick. I love subs but wanted something that felt just a little tougher. The band on this is so well proportioned and the tapered lugs make it look even better. I have a tiny 6.5 inch wrist, but with the diver's extension removed it fits me as well as any other sub. Finally I am a member of the club. Now watch my AD call me tomorrow and say he has mine lol. Thanks for reading.
