It seems that watches are here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future, as a mainstream fashion category. With the good comes the bad, of course, and one characteristic is that it attracts a set of well-off, low-information buyers. GaryG shares his tips for navigating uncertainty in watch collecting in 2022.

When you talk with watch enthusiasts, the conversation often branches out to other areas of passion; one of these is inevitably sound systems.

Not many brands first present a complex minute repeater only to then distill it back to its essentials to power a three-handed, time-only watch. But that’s what Tutima has done with the charming Patria Small Second.
GaryG provides us with a look at why he bought the A. Lange & Söhne Double Split even though he already owned the brand’s Datograph. The Double Split is the world’s only double rattrapante capable of both split-second and split-minute interval timing, which may shed some light.
