Not so very long ago, the Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision in white gold won the coveted Aiguille d’Or at the 2015 edition of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève.http://quillandpad.com/2016/01/29/greubel-forseys-2016-sihh-an-overview-of-watches-presented/

The dong son drum serves as the source of inspiration for Peter Speake-Marin’s latest release: the Diamond Magister Dong Son Tourbillon. The drum’s origins trace to the Red River Delta of Vietnam dating back to approximately 600 BC. The drums were typically used in harvest festivals and rituals such as weddings and funerals, as well as acting as symbols of status and power for tribal leaders.http://www.atimelyperspective.com/blog/2016/01/25/meet-the-diamond-magister-dong-son-tourbillon-from-peter-speake-marin.html

Let’s get the obvious out of the way first: it’s very unlikely that even EMC’s proud parents − Urwerk co-founders Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei − would describe their EMC progeny as “pretty.”http://quillandpad.com/2016/01/18/presenting-emc2-time-hunter-by-urwerk-ugly-duckling-takes-first-step-to-swanhood/

Hublot is probably one of the least understood luxury brands around (particularly in the wrist watch realm) - especially because so many people think that they understand it. Hublot really epitomizes what someone recently described to me as a "non-fragile" company. The idea is that fragile companies are those that don't deal well with criticism or complaints. Non-fragile companies, on the other hand, actually thrive in the face of criticism and sometimes even controversy. Hublot receives more than its fair share of negative commentary from the wrist watch collector community, yet the brand seems to be getting stronger all the time. Hublot is a non-fragile company that thrives on feedback both negative and positive. No one at the frantic and busy organization is at all sensitive about the fact that many of the more conservative watch collectors take most opportunities to share their disapproval at the brand's product offerings. Hublot keeps on going strong offering more of what people seem to love, and also more of what seems to irritate some of the more outspoken members of the watch lover community.http://www.ablogtowatch.com/hublot-big-bang-unico-watch-review/

Looking at the entries in the 2015 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, many of which had watch names seemingly longer than a feature article, I didn’t feel pressured to cut the title of this article short. But it really should have read: “Why we are in a golden age of appreciating fine hand-finishing. And why that will change relatively soon.”http://quillandpad.com/2015/10/27/why-we-are-in-a-golden-age-for-appreciating-superlative-hand-finishing-in-wristwatches/
