Omega Releases New Seamaster Watches for London 2012 Olympic Games
This year’s Olympic games in London are significant for Omega for several reasons. One is that 2012 marks the 80th anniversary of the first Olympic games for which Omega was official timekeeper. Another is the last games held in the city of London, in 1948, saw the introduction of several sports timekeeping innovations pioneered by the brand. Finally, this year will be Omega’s 25th Olympic Games as official timekeeper. And in keeping with recent tradition, the brand will introduce a trio of special timepieces to celebrate.All three are Seamaster models ¡ª appropriate, since the Seamaster made its debut in the last London Olympics year of 1948. Two are three-hand watches with dates and the third is a chronograph. All have the “London 2012” Olympic emblem stamped on the caseback to identify them as special editions.The Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Co-Axial Chronograph “London 2012” makes a great impression with its hefty 44-mm case and blue-PVD-coated dia

Montblanc TimeWriter 1 Metamorphosis Watch Transforms
There was a lot of excitement at Montblanc in Geneva for this watch. They only had one of them?at SIHH and it was in a case. Still a prototype but I got to check it out a bit. In a nutshell, you press down on a lever on the left side of the case and the watch dial magically transforms into something else. Not only does the look change, but more importantly the functions do as well. One face shows the time (regulator style with?retrograde minutes) and the date, while the second style is a chronograph.In the included video you can wait through most of it or skip ahead near the end when they discuss and show some rather funtastic special effects of the TimeWriter 1 Metamorphosis watch. You not only get a good idea of how it works, but of how complex it is. They put all this effort into the video and it isn't even in English - the bastards. The TimeWriter watches will be a growing collection from Montblanc magical workshop in Villeret. The plan is to give the young and eager watch makers t

What happens if I change the date at the wrong time?
So I understand that with many watches you are not supposed to change the date when the mechanism is engaged. I get that.What I want to know is what the end result will be if you do.In particular on a Zenith with the Grande Date.I have one that is skipping some numerals and was wondering if this might be a symptom of someone having done this or will they date mech just completely stop working?

Watches Obsolete?
I saw an article on the Fox News website yesterday about technology items that are becoming "extinct". One of those items the author declared was extinct was wristwatches. Apparently, with cell phones and other devices having the time on them, wristwatches are no longer being worn..."except by those that grew up with them".I agree that cell phones and mobile PCs, and iPods all will let you know the time; wristwatches do it with more style and elegance than the other devices. Wearing a watch is not always just having the time handy (and to me it's still easier to look at my wrist than pull my phone off my belt), it's about having a product that has style (anything from Rolex to Timex has style as far as I'm concerned). It's also about having something that in many cases is hand built with tolerances that require the utmost skill to pull off. It's about technology that will never become obsolete. The human hand that builds watches my become extinct, but in 100 years from now a watc
