Linde Werdelin’s First Women¡¯s Watch – The White Watch
Linde Werdelin announces the launch of its first women¡¯s watch: The White Watch. Based on the popular 3-Timer model, it has been given a softer and more elegant touch while a new strap has been fitted to accommodate smaller feminine wrists. LW believes the 3-Timer’s design constitutes the perfect model on which to base the brand’s first women¡¯s watch. Starting from the delicate pattern of the dial to the slender, sleek hands and discreet indexes, bearing the minimum luminous material possible and combined with the white color details, The White Watch is designed to complement a lady¡¯s wardrobe. ¡°Women today tend to prefer and wear bigger sized watches and I am very pleased that our designs, although male marketed, are appealing to women as well. Maintaining the brand¡¯s DNA is very important for LW and The White Watch is no exception¡± says Morten Linde.While the strap mechanism remains the same, the white calfskin chosen for the new model has a reduced width which allows the

Bunn Special
I have been poking around this and other watch forums for a few months to feed my interest in pocket watches. I guess you could say I am an early stage novice wanna be collector trying to acquire knowledge. I have a few non working watches including a well used E. Howard. For Christmas my wife presented me with a running Bunn Special in reasonable condition. I was thrilled! She purchased it from a local retail that does mostly high end estate jewelry, they have a good reputation. They typically have about 100 or so interesting pocket watches and send the lesser ones off to dealers. I have tried to identify and learn about the exact model but can see none exactly like this. There are 2 things that seem different:1. The flip out case. I do not see this anywhere.2. The lettering on the dial is in a straight line, not curved.Could this be an assembled watch with a dial, case and movement that have been married up? If so does it belong in a collection?The watch can be returned in a few da

Can My Hammy Beat Up Your Patek?
Are modern mechanical watch movements of similar design and quality, essentially comparable? Reading a listing of a 17 jewel Patek struck me as decidedly similar to a description of a Hamilton. It got me wondering if and when mechanical watch technology reached maturityWhat makes a manual-wind movement superior and does Hamilton (alongside other brands) represent the apex of wind-up watch development? Technology typically advances in stages and eventually reaches a point where further development is largely incremental. When it comes to portable watercraft, the canoe is an elegant machine that's not likely to change very much. Inflatible boats with outboards may supplant canoes in certain applications, but they're not "better canoes." My knowledge of watch mechanics is pretty basic, but my guess is that manual-wind watch movements are now rather canoe-like. Is that true? And if so, can the best Hamilton watch movements of the 20th century be placed alongside other superior bran

Omega PO for me. I think it needs a new strap! Orange Zulu or Nato would suit me!Afternoon switch. I couldn't very well watch Pierce Brosnan in The World is Not Enough wearing a P O. With a SMP 2531.80 I feel so authentic😼😍!
