thread: Calavatra 5196P
I should say I own this watch. However there is one flaw. The movement is too small for the case and dial. As a result the small seconds indication is too far displaced toward the center of the dial. That reflects a short cut that a brand like Patek...

thread: Fantastic diner with my wife yesterday at the Hôtel de Ville restaurant (Crissier - Switzerland)
You will be close to two of the best. Crissier is fantastic and I am completely devoted to it. But don't forget Le Pont de Brent in Montreux. It is also fantastic. You should go to both!!

thread: BREAKING: Apple presents much faster Apple Watch 2, 50m WR, new 'pearl white ceramic case!
After 9 months of wrist time, I refuse to call this a "watch". It is a mediocre watch. It is worse as an applications platform. However, it is brilliant as a notification device. I find it a great convenience to be able to glance at the device and...

thread: Power reserve indicators. What is your opinion about them?
I have two conflicting thoughts on the subject. First, power reserve indications on the front of the watch, make little sense. Really you only need to know the state of wind when you put the watch on and when you take it off. Placing the power...
