It goes to show that
link there's nothing quite like a mechanical vintage chronograph movement!This is, again, an exceptionally rare reference of Patek Philippe with a curved case carved from a single block of gold. It should be noted that, 20 years ago, these watches were some of the most valuable and desirable in the world. What's even more amazing to think about is that Patek made watches like this at one point, and now it seems next to impossible that we'd see something like this come out of Patek.If you can handle the size, it's hard to beat the IWC Automatic Spitfire. The watch's sub-$5,000 price point means it's relatively attainable if you can be patient saving your dough. It's a watch made with real integrity, and one that will impress just about anybody, whether they're luxury snobs or salt-of-the-earth. Outside of Tudor and Omega, you won't find many in-house tool watches that bring this much value and quality to the table.
Apparently, Panerai was supposed to produce 1,500 pieces of the reference, but the brand never made more than 250. The watch features a 40mm brushed titanium case with a 15mm thickness, a 22mm lug spacing,
link and a 200m depth rating. The case was combined with a stainless steel bezel with the tachymeter scale engraved in black.Like the odd Cartier Pebble with its massive resurgence, round or roundish watches with short or no lugs are comfortable daily wearers.On a similar note, the brushed steel bracelet is simple but well executed with solid links (including end links), a folding safety clasp, and multiple micro-adjust points. With 20mm end links, the Hudson has a very wide lug profile, meaning it looks great on a bracelet but perhaps a bit off balance on a strap (if you go with something leather, maybe pick a strap that tapers).
There's lots of love for tool watches out there, and lots of love for high complications too. But
link what I love about these watches from Hermès is that they're a nice reminder that in our modern world all watchmaking is essentially about charm and enjoyment. That the watches are damn handsome certainly doesn't hurt either.Caliber: Customized ETA 2892/A with ROCS1 systemFunctions: Hours, minutes, second, day of the weekPower Reserve: 36 hoursWinding: AutomaticFrequency: 4 Hz (28,800 vph)Jewels: 40Total Components: 212Additional Details: Winding and setting operated via caseback leverUltra-thin has always been part of our history, says Nouri. "From the beginning, the Piaget family was creating thin components, then watches, until the ... launch of the 9P movement [in 1957], one of the thinnest calibers in the world at that time. Three years later, the 12P was launched – it was the thinnest automatic movement in the world. The ultra-thin icon Altiplano was born, and now for more than sixty years represents the ultra-thin category in the watch world."To be frank, you're either okay with the idea of an AP Marvel watch or you aren't. If you aren't, then nothing's going to change your mind – no matter how well-executed the piece turns out to be. Which in a way is too bad. Because this watch is very well-executed indeed.
