Hands-On: The IWC Portugieser Chronograph Reference 3714
If you’ve been following IWC for the last few years, you know that they’ve taken a somewhat different tack in introducing new watches at the annual SIHH exhibition in Geneva – rather than exert themselves to create new watches across several collections, as is the norm, the firm’s been concentrating on a single collection per year. This year was the Year of the Portugieser, and there were quite a few new watches introduced as this was also the year that IWC chose to begin launching a series of new in-house movements. However, there was one reference that remained unchanged: the Portugieser Chronograph Reference 3714. The watch first saw the light of day in the 1990s, following on from the design of the Portuguese rattrapante chronograph that preceded it. Remarkably, it’s persisted for nearly 20 years, quite literally completely unchanged except for some occasional updates to the available colors for the dials and hands, as one of the most successful

Commodore wristwatch circa 1975 (pics inside)
This is a Commodore watch I got from the 'Bay a few years ago:No, it isn't broken - since old-school LEDs were hell on battery life, the display only lights up when a certain button is pressed, like so:No wristshots with the time displayed - it only displays for one second, and my reflexes aren't that fast.Press down the button twice and you get the date displayed. It's the same as the time display, only with the month and date. Press the button once and hold it; you get the seconds display. No pics on those last two, as it's the same display that you saw, just with different information. Pics would just be redundant, IMO - but I'll get them up if any of you insist.

New Watches
Awhile back I posted a poll regarding what watch I would purchase next, but I had a ‘slight’ change of plans…..I bought two new watches instead, the first begins with J and ends with aeger lecoultre hometime, and the other begins with b and ends with lancpain flyback. It was a tough two purchases (i wanted all the watches in the store) and I “traded in” (as they say) 2 other watches, my rolex sea dweller and my royal oak, to make room in my collectionI will post pictures sometime next weekBest regards,Jdp87

Where do you position your watch?
I've always wondered where on the wrist the watch should be positioned. This is how I wear my watchesIs there a rule? Or just personal preference? I guess it's also to do with how fit the watch is. I prefer snug fit.
