An Open Letter To My Fans
An open letter to all the wonderful fans, friends and family that has shown me so much love during this trying time. I am home and live to riff another day. For those who know me closely are quite stunned that something such as this can happen so suddenly to a person who has worked out each and every day of their life, strict diets of no red meat for so many years I can’t count, no drinking, no smoking and just an all around healthy person....

Christophe Claret DualTow
Little known to most USA watch enthusiasts is the genius movement and watch manufacturing of Christophe Clare. If you have been interested in timepieces above the 50K mark you might actually be wearing one of his movements and not even know it. He has been making movements in a very secret fashion behind the scenes for 20 years. If you have a dream he can make it happen. Not many like him. A few of the Leviev watches are using Christophe Clare movements... [Read More...]
Eterna Madison Spherodrive
Our Swiss friends at Eterna research and development have discovered an entirely new way to mount the barrel. I would love to have a rip down on this movement to see the end play between the bearing and barrel arbor after a simulated 3 years of use. Looks like the balls are ceramic as well. I wonder if this will end the oblong wear (such as what happens on Rolex barrel bushings). Nice job Eterna [Read More...] SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Eterna... [Read More...]
Omega Speedmaster 40th
I will be talking about OmegaSpeedmaster Moon versions for years and years to come. Any version with the Lemania movement is top noch and under priced. A wonderful daily wear or weekend switch hitter if you’re in a Patek during the week and going boating or to the moon in your private rocket. Maybe just a nice balloon ride headed toward the moon will suffice. Here is a new limited version. [Read More...] SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Omega Speedmaster... [Read More...]
Hublot King Bang
Hublot and its genius CEO Jean Claude Biver has launched an all black ceramic case monster! The King Bang series is an entirely new design as far as I’m concerned and executed perfectly. If you are looking for a ceramic case watch you are probably familiar with the usual long waiting list from most Swiss companies. Paying double the list price is quite ordinary as well. Hublot has led the chase in the ceramic luxury market in both research and... [Read More...]

Freak by Ulysse Nardin
Enamored by avante’ garde watches I nominate Ulysse Nardin to be given a metal of courage, honor and astonishing Watchmaking prowess for delivering the goods (as Rob Halford of Judas Priest would say). Freak is by far andlarge a watch I could work on on a daily basis at a bench in there factory in Switzerland and smile each day I reported for duty as Ulysse Nardin Watchmaker. Click to Expand Article / Click to Close Some specifications... [Read More...]
