In Horology, Weird Stuff Happen
In James Dowling and Jeffrey Hess outstanding book on Rolex, 'The Best of Times' there were two things that always stood out to me, the first and by far most important, that in a book dedicated 'only' to Rolex, with pictures 'only' of Rolex timepieces, there is (quite correctly) two pages dedicated to John Harwood, the inventor of the first automatic wristwatch.Dowling and Hess realized that no book that discusses automatics could be complete without the mention and pictures of a 'Harwood' - the Genesis of all future automatics. Hence in a book dedicated to Rolex, and with thousands of pictures of Rolex timepieces, we have both pictures and explanation of John Harwood's Automatic watch.The second and possible less as important is Chapter 21 - headed ODDITIES - W.S.H. - Weird Stuff Happens. We all know that Rolex NEVER made a 'bumper' automatic, yet on page 337 we see one.And I personally own one too - Yes a Rolex with 'bumper' movement.So, when I found below watch, I again realized

Two Hours
I was out for a drive on Saturday when I noticed a clock on a building. I probably would not have paid attention to it if the building had not been a Lotus dealership. The clock read 4 o'clock. I look at my new Trent. It read 2 o'clock. That's odd, I thought. The Lotus dealership was two hours off. I look at my car's clock. It read 4 o'clock. I had been wearing my watch since the morning. The best theory I could come up with is that my watch ran down approximately two hours before I put it on in the morning and it started running again as I moved around. If it had been a fraction of an hour off, it would have been more obvious. This morning was the first time I put the watch in my winder. I will keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't stop again, unless I specifically let it run down.

5711 and Daytona
Hi guys,As promised a little double incoming, for the misses and myself.She hadn't seen them in real and was not used to man watches for woment, but after 1 hour she finds them great, when she got them I thought she will say that she wants to sell and buy something else, but now she finds them great.Sorry for the pics, will try to make better ones later, but the sun is out and we are going to visit the city.For those wondering I love the 5711, but it won't take the first place from the 5712 any time soon I think.Will try to make a group shot in Odessa, minus the 15300 which is in the bank in Paris. So quite interesting to get in the same day the 2 hardest to get steel watches of the moment.IMG_0755.jpgIMG_0753.jpgIMG_0749.jpg
