It's always on the right time (more or less) and it's always on the right day and date. Even on a day like today with lovely weather, lovely Mustang across the parking lot acting as eye candy to catch more viewers ... it's fun to have a watch on my wrist ...  

How do you set the perpetual calendar? Looking like a very fun day out, too

It's done at the factory and the watch has a 10-year battery, so for most folks, it's done once and for all. But if you need to do it later, first you put in the battery, then using tweezers (or a tiny "jumper cable") on the back of the movement, you do t...  

You must have a mechanical perpetual in your stable. Perhaps not one that can be advanced forward AND backward, as in the UN Ludwig. That would set you back a bit. But wait. To whom as I speaking??? Of course you have such a watch. Then why not let us see...

It has been interesting to me to learn that the PC is not so new a complication as, for example, the auto-chrono. And a perpetual stands, in my brief collecting career, as "the one that got away." When the Montblanc came on the market a couple years ago i...  

It does sometimes happen that you’re looking or saving up for a watch and then it’s gone weeks or days before you are ready. Had this two or three times and always kicked myself over it. Still, it’s a long game and while some pieces will not return at the... 

As moderator, though… What do you think of the piece? And what have other member's experiences been? It still seems to me a respectable entry into the market. Yet... I know of—and do tire a bit of—one watch company's echoing of another's designs.

But I’d say definitely great horological value at the level it goes, just like so many Jerome Lambert Montblancs. Not one that is likely to appreciate with time and the sub counters are a tad close but it provides a very interesting complication at a spec... 

Yes, I own one such derivative—the Heritage Chronometrie Ultra Slim. What the heck, it's a nicely designed watch with a tried & true movement. Mine keeps excellent time, is always mistaken for a quartz due to its slender nature (which makes it fun to ...

For readers who haven't been around a long long time, Ron is a bit of a high-accuracy quartz buff, and this level of in-accuracy is appalling to his group of perfectionists. I've also been on the fringe of "desperately needing" that level of accuracy, and...
