Rebellion T-1000 Watch
Rebellion ups the power reserve ante with REB T-1000 manually wound mechanical movement in the watch with the same name (minus "REB"). Through six barrels the movement stores 1000 hours of power reserve. What I want to know is how long do you need to wind the watch, for it to go from totally unwound to fully wound? Mechanically, the movement isn't super complex. It has been specially designed to be symmetrical, which is interesting. All the "guts" are squeezed in the middle, and the balance wheel has been exposed in a unique way. It reminds me of a flattened Corum Golden Bridge movement. The real cool part of the movement is the six mainspring barrels that contain all the power, and are connected via the chain transmission. Time of course it told on the two moving cylinders. There is also said to be a power reserve indicator. An interesting exercise in mechanics and design from Rebellion. In titanium and $105,000.See my Rebellion T-1000 watch article at Haute Living here.

Talking Watches: With Phil Toledano
You don't meet people like Phil Toledano often. In fact, I can't say I've ever met someone quite like Phil Toledano, ever. By name, you might think he's a working-class guy from Jersey. He's not. Born in London to a French-Moroccan mother and American father – an artist himself – Toledano is a conceptual artist of some note. His razor sharp wit and jovial sentiment – that type that produces one-liners by the minute – has made Toledano something of a cult hero in the art world. He'll say things like, "I’m English, so I’m not frightened by death, or the shame of a large urine spot on my trousers," one minute – ever the light spot in any conversation – while simultaneously creating haunting, and truly personal work that reveals a much deeper look at the world around him. 1 OF 34 His projects as an artist include the widely acclaimed Days With My Father, documenting Toledano's relationship w

My First Hammie In
Inbound the first Hammie to my collection a Multi Touch on a black leather strap. I have been looking at the Tissot T Touch for over a year because of the movement and the touch function. Didn't really like the style, but I found a Hamilton that has the same movement and tougher looking. Found a pre-loved for a great price, so I pulled the trigger. This version is no longer made.

when to service
hey guyshow much time should i be gainig/losing before i should start worrying about getting my watch serviced?I took my accutron 26C04 in today because last week i gained 3 minutes and this week i've gained 5 minutes. Am i expecting too much or is that a real problem? I know the "average" is about 6 seconds a day and 10 seconds worst case so that doesn't really add up.....or am I wrong?I wear my watch every day and take it off at night, if that makes a difference.thanks in advance for any advice.
