Apple Watch Receives Red Dot: Best Of The Best Design Award
What do the Apple Watch and the MB&F HM6 Space Pirate have in common? They are each recipients of Red Dot? Design Awards 2015. On top of that, the Apple Watch and the MB&F HM6 Space Pirate are the only two timepieces in this current round of Red Dot awards to receive the elevated?"Red Dot: Best of the Best" designations as part of the celebrated German Red Dot award organization. I've always been fond of the Red Dot awards and tend to agree with their jury's take on design, as they not only take the process exceedingly seriously, but they take into account form, as well as function.What is very interesting about their awarding both the Apple Watch and the MB&F Horological Machine No. 6 Space Pirate watch such esteemed awards is that these products are both, in their own right, controversial when it comes to design.

True confessions. . . part II
If the truth be told, I am a fairly new devotee of Hamilton time pieces. Up until two months ago, my connection to WTF was through the Invicta forum and Invicta watches.

Omega Basel Offerings

36mm too small for 7.25¡± wrist?
What does the forum think? I personally prefer the 36mm DJ and DD over their 40mm counter parts. As stated I¡¯ve got a 7.25¡± inch wrist, bigger guy but just prefer the classic case sizes in these two references. I¡¯ve tried to like the DD40 and DJ 41 but for some reason keep coming back to 36mm pieces. I guess I¡¯m just old fashioned. So what does everyone think, is 36mm too small for me? Not that I¡¯d stop wearing my 36mm pieces either way lol. Just curious what the forums thoughts are with the bigger is better trend.
