Watch Experts Network: ‘DuBois et Fils DBF003-07 – in-depth watch review by ESCAPEMENT’
A significant dateAngus Davies provides a ¡®hands-on¡¯ review of the new DuBois et fils DBF003-07. This watch features a big date complication with a visually striking bottle green dial.Throughout history, dates have been used to label momentous events. My parents and their peers would remark, ¡°Where were you when Kennedy was shot?¡±. The assassination of JFK, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, on the 22nd November 1963 was of huge historical significance and the date became etched on the minds of a generation.The importance of two digits which denote a date should never be overlooked. A forgotten birthday can be a source of much upset. Many men have been on the wrong end of a tongue-lashing for absentmindedly forgetting an anniversary.One or two numerals can mean so much. Sometimes a small aperture at 3 o¡¯clock employing a sole disc seems inadequate when it comes to conveying the importance of a date.

IWC Connect Is Another Swiss Watchmaker's Answer To The Smartwatch
IWC Connect is an electronic module that will be included on some IWC watch straps, adding fitness tracking functionality to IWC watches, as well as the ability to connect to the Internet of Things (IoT). The first IWC watches to get IWC Connect will be those in their Big Pilot's watch collection.

Both IWC and Montblanc are part of the Richemont Group, which has for a long time been seen as a testament to traditionalism in the watch industry. Nevert

Breguet Grand Complication Ref. 1160 Pocket Watch: Return Of A Legend In Spirit And Actuality
1783 France - Louis Abraham Breguet is contacted for the commission of the world's most elegant and complicated timepiece to be handed to Queen Marie-Antoinette. A task commissioned by Count Axel de Ferson, an officer in the Queen's high guard, and a suitor to the queen. Price and time meant nothing, "make the most spectacular watch the world has ever seen;" the noted queen's affection for jewelry and rare items was to be outstanded. At least that was the idea. In 1793, ten years after work had begun on the Marie Antoinette Breguet pocket watch, the French Revolution took its grasp on French royalty, and Queen Marie Antoinette was beheaded at the guillotine for treason.Work, however, did not cease on the watch. It was not until 1827 that the watch was finally completed. The result of 34 years of efforts imbuing the pocket watch with every known complication at the time. The movement was an automatic (self-winding) mechanical (obviously) movement with a 48 hour power reserve. Complicati
