How Manually Wound Watch Movements Compare To Their Automatic Counterparts
One thing we have noticed over the years at ABTW is, with watches, nothing is as simple as it may first seem. Take, for example, the humble automatic watch movement that we see in numerous watches today. This could be the reliable ETA 2892 or 2894 that are used by various companies, the Soprod A10 that is seen more frequently nowadays, or an in-house watch movement made by Omega or Rolex. Whatever the watch movement, the automatic rotor and its works is a basic complication that is seen so frequently that it is almost taken for granted.As we know, the benefits of an automatic rotor are constant winding of the mainspring and ¨C thanks to the higher average tension in the mainspring when the watch is being worn ¨C more consistent power through the gear train. This means the watch should keep better time as you avoid the diminished amplitude and associated rate loss as the mainspring winds down. It is also convenient in our hectic lives, when we may forget to wind our watch each morning bef

"Which Speedmaster should I buy?"
That was once a simple question but today if you look at the Omega site, you will have your choice of twelve Speedy Pro versions and five 50th LEs - without even considering the automatics. A total of seventeen to choose from! And Omega marketing would have you believe that thirteen of the seventeen share the same Lemania movement worn on the moon. NOT!The price of the basic 3570.50 Speedy is up to $3200 MSRP but many first time buyers shy away from the hesalite and go for the sapphire sandwich with a MSRP of over $4000.At these prices with normal discounting, one could purchase the same model actually worn by the moonwalkers; a 105.012 or perhaps even a 105.003.I went through a bunch of Speedy Pros ¡°similar¡± to the ones worn on the moon until I decided that only the exact model would do for me. As a result, I bought this 105.012 off the famous auction site for less than $1300:

15202 light ?
Does it feel very light on the wrist after wearing 15202 steel ? I was offered 15400 Blue but refused because I thought it was too big. Now I am thinking was my decision right ?
