Hands-On: The Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde Tourbillon Ivory Enamel (And What Is And Isn't A Tourbi
Since tourbillons have become much more common since the end of the 20th century – largely due to modern manufacturing and assembly techniques that make it easier to achieve the precision necessary for them to work properly – now more than ever, it's not so much a question of whether you can do it, but how well it's done. With that in mind, let's take a look at an unusual, and unusually designed, example of the tourbillon as a piece of wearable, high-craft, design: an objet d'art for the wrist from Jaquet Droz. 1 OF 9 As always, with tourbillons it's good to have some context for what you're looking at. In this case, we've got a tourbillon that's a little different from the usual run-of-the-mill tourbillon (to the extent that there is such a thing in the first place).  This is not the first self-winding tourbillon ever made, of course – that honor goes to Audemars Piguet, who created the still record-holding self-wind

Just in 1954 Elgin Seaman with fancy case and lugs
Looking at the 1954 catalog listing the 6754 is the Seaman, both shock resistant and water resistant.

It runs a 17 jewel 687.

My new Android Skeleton

My 3.5 year old son loves seeing the internal workings and I have to admit I do too. I'm thinking of getting another band for it though as this one is not that great looking...any suggestions?On to the photos:

Box and Papers?
Recently purchased first Panerai and trying to verify what documentation I may be missing. I don't plan on selling/flipping the watch, but if there is any supporting documentation I can obtain to offset any missing documents, I would like to work on it.What I have:-Outer black box which has sticker with bar code, PAM #, and same number that is on the watch (limited edition).-Wood box, looks like the standard Panerai light brown box-Booklet which provides history on Panerai, info on case, movement, care etc.-Another booklet which has International Guarantee and Limited Warranty. Watch was made in 2002, so warranty doesn't apply.-Card which includes original owner, individual watch number, purchase date, and authorized dealer.I brought watch to CD Peacock, which has one of few Panerai watchmakers in the Midwest. Couple issues in the gears, which can be fixed with a cleaning. Once done, watch will have a 2 year warranty. Watchmaker is familiar with Panerai, does the work in-house, and val
