TimeOut: Thanks very much!

I hadn't really thought of balanced outputs much with my setup. Do you think it would make a big difference with IEMs vs full-ear headphones? I keep my music files as high quality as possible

TimeOut: JH Audio Roxanne and UE 11Pro Customs pared with a Chord Mojo

As I am on the move a lot, and don't get to sit and enjoy music at home much, I haven't invested in a hi-tech home system. However when travelling, I use USB Audio Player Pro (bypassing internal DACs) on my Samsung S23 Ultra, into a chord Mojo then then one of the custom IEMs. I've never found a per

Horological Meandering: When a watch company raves about its accuracy..

But doesn't allow you to set the time accurately... It makes no sense!! Thank you for touching on something that has bugged me ever since I got into fine horology. A zero reset should be the minimum for every watch. I like to set my watch with the seconds at zero, so you have a baseline, but with ha

Audemars Piguet: Jules Audemars Metropolis

A watch that doesn't get the airtime that it deserves. I was always a huge fan of the Jules Audemars line. The chrono, the Metropolis, amongst others. I love the design of the dial also, very unique numbers that just work beautifully. Thanks for reminding me of it! Imran

Vacheron Constantin: I find it very hard to not call this a perfect watch

Everything is perfect. The fonts, the selection of numerals and batons, the chrono dials perfectly centered at 3 and 9. The dial and bezel width ratio is perfect. The silver dial. Of course, the lugs. It looks great with every strap colour. It is an absolute masterpiece, and, probably fortunately, a

Glashütte Original: I love the 'long time' indicators, I find something philosophical in them....

We don't usually think of it in too much detail, but: 1. Seconds hands, 1 min/rotation 2. Minutes hands, 1 hr/rotation 3. Hour indicator, 12hrs/rotation 4. Month indicator, 28/29/30/31 days per 'rotation' or change in indication 5. Year indicator, 1 yr until change and finally.. 6. Leap Year indicat

Horological Meandering: Here is an alternate take.....

I have never heard of any of these ambassadors, and they will make no difference to whether I buy a timepiece or not (It might actually put me off!). But I am in my mid 40s now. Advertising of any kind won't work on me. I know what I like. When I was young, an 'expensive swiss timepiece' was somethi

Glashütte Original: This is a really classy watch.

I tried it on many years ago, and was close to buying it. Felt great on the wrist, nice and thin.
