Watches - another OCD problem
-
I rather like the JLC. The Panerai isn't bad either, but I don't have the arms to pull off a watch of that size. Not that I can afford it, anyway…
I can't afford them either.
The Guardian posted an article a few days back entitled Still ticking: The improbable survival of the luxury watch business. It's a relatively long piece, but worth a read.

Now you're just showing off @Tempvs!
Heading to Salon QP?
Meanwhile, Jaeger LeCoultre have just announced a boutique edition Memovox. It looks very tasty.
Hodinkee have just released a limited edition chronometer rated Nomos Metro. It also looks really nice, but has already sold out.

Heading to Vienna now. The JLCs are great. I like the Extreme Lab2.

Good article. It's really just a case of oversupply now. In house does not mean better, in fact a lot of the time it just means far more expensive and a lot harder to service and repair. For normal everyday wear watches ETA movements can't be bettered. They are reliable and are easy to service.

There's an article at Hodinkee about Atelier de Chronométrie, which the author described as making, "some of the most interesting watches I saw at this year's SalonQP".
It looks like the watches use refinished and upgraded vintage Omega movements, which are then chronometer certified by the observatory of Besançon in France.
I like the concept, but whether I'd want to drop €36,000 on one is a different matter.

It would not be a wise move!
