A Week On The Wrist: The Slim D'Hermes (And Some Thoughts On What Makes Or Breaks A Dial)
Think about Hermès and suddenly your mind envisions magnificent French leather goods. Yet, this manufacture also has had a very important place in horology, collaborating with Jaeger-LeCoultre, and for decades retailing Universal Genève wristwatches in Paris. Hermès also started producing its own lines of watches in the late 1970s.

Sapphire Casebacks for GMT-C's
Hi All,I just recently purchased a Swiss sapphire caseback for my GMT-C and installed it over the weekend. The caseback on my GMT-C is pretty cool.
