Watches - another OCD problem
-
Rolex have a lot of photos on their Instagram feed of the Milgauss, including this very retro model.
They often use it as a way of teasing a new model in the run up to Baselworld. There was speculation that the Milgauss might be refreshed last year, as it hasn't been updated in years. This very cool concept was doing the rounds back then, which owes a lot to the above.
Of course, you won't be able to buy one, unless you pay twice RRP to the flippers!

Call me simple if you will, but what the fuck is the point of a power reserve? If you are wearing the watch and moving, it's going to have power, if not, you pick the fucker up occasionally and shake it. If you forgot, then it'll stop, but it's not like firing up a Saturn Rocket to get it going again….
These are manual watches, so it's a bit more understandable. But does it warrant dial real estate when there's an exhibition back? I think not. And a screw down crown on a manual that doesn't have a high degree of water resistance or a long power reserve is daft.
Grand Seiko is one of my favorites, but they can be frustrating too.

Meh. The Milgauss with the green crystal is probably my favorite Rolex model. This one does not impress me.
Not that I was in the market for one, anyway…

Power reserves are great for manual wind watches.

Omega have announced a few things recently. The De Ville Trésor 125th Anniversary is pretty good too.

That's a nice watch.
Not usually a fan of ceramic watches, and I prefer the previous version of the SMPc, but this is hot

And I noticed that @Tempvs has a watch featured. The Good Art strap is a giveaway.
