Stowa Wants You To Design Their Next Watch
I'm sure we've all at one point dreamt of designing and manufacturing our very own watch. I know I have a few scribbles and sketches stashed away somewhere in my apartment. But for most of us, the thought of having to deal with suppliers and manufacturers is often enough to keep us just dreaming.Now Stowa, one of our favorite German watchmakers, is about to simplify the entire process with a design contest open to the public, with the winning submission to be realized by the brand. The contest, in collaboration with Watchtime, launched on July 17th and will be open for submissions until the 30th. By mid August, the 10 most popular designs will be put up for a vote on Watchtime.net, with the winning design to be sold through Watchtime.net's online shop. The winner will receive the watch for free, valued at around EUR 1,000. Runner-ups will get vouchers from the brand.If you'd like to participate, you can download the case template from Stowa's contest site. Fret not if you don't have an

This is the first Blancpain to feature the brand new caliber F385, which is a ground-up new concept for them and a fairly impressive new development that doesn't seem to have gotten a lot of attention. That's about to change. 2 OF 24 First, the details of the watch. Sized at 43mm and available in either full ceramic or satin-brushed stainless steel, the chronograph is 300m water resistant and holds on to many of the design traits seen in last year's time-only Bathyscaphe. The dial o

AP 3rd year warranty, worth it ?
Hi guysI was wondering what most people around here were thinking about the 3rd year warranty AP offer if you send your watch back to clearwater before the end of the 2 year warranty. Reason I am asking is simply because I really take good care of all my watches, never wear it underwater and it's still as new as when I got it 1.5 years ago.how long is the usual turnaround time at clearwater for such verification ?Would you or not send it ThanksDominic
