Every Corum watch of a limited series that is sold helps manufacturers
We might catch ourselves looking down on such people, but the brands are quite happy with their custom¡ªand quite frankly¡ªsuch people actually do help the industry to develop new ideas that are often extremely costly to develop, let alone produce.Every Corum watch of a limited series that is sold helps manufacturers to return the costs that were invested in a complex wristwatch that only a small group can afford to purchase.

Hi all..I've been to the (ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.) page and can't find anything for this cal.691.. I've seen one or two that were close.both being 17 jewel models.. The 691 is a 25 jewel,micro rotor The one I'm looking at is in a 60's era 14K case,standard three hand sweep movement. No date complication. I would like to find 691 specific info,regarding the beat speed.. Most of the Hamilton micro rotor 600 series movements that I've seen so far are either 18,xxx or 21,xxx beat versions. I need to know the specific beat for the 25 jewel Hamilton 691 ??? Also .. are these 600 series movements a version by Hamilton Are they truly Hamilton movements ??? I actually hope notParts must be getting really hard to find,if so. This is a nice looking,just serviced14K model I'm looking at,but if the only parts avail are from old shelf Hamilton stock I think I'll pass. Thanks for any input on beat info,and parts avail.

Interesting watches: A Piece of Horology History
Here is a lovely Trench Watch from the 'father' of watchmaking Georges Favre-Jacot.A 22 year old visionary, he was the FIRST to create the very concept of watchmaking Manufacture.From the hand of the watchmaker "manus" in Latin came the etymology of the word 'Manufacturer' Georges Favre - Jacot went on to found the great watchmaking firm 'Zenith.' He called it 'Zenith' after the word thatdesignates the highest point in the universe, ZENITH. He adopted a star as a symbol, a shining good luck charm, a celestial guide towards a promising destiny.This is truly a great watch, and a piece of Horology History.Georges Favre Jacot Cushion Shape Trench Watch WW1

How do they do it?
I know that many Breitlings are thick. However, there are quite a few, that have a really slim profile. And I like it. It allows for a larger watch to look and wear quite small, but with great visibility and wrist presence. But curious how they do it. The watch I am wearing today has a GMT, Date and 300M water rating. Everything other brand, from what I can tell, says the thickness of the case is due to the thickness of the movement and the requirements based on depth rating. For example the Submariner is slightly thicker than the 116710 GMT because of the water rating. Curious if anyone has any knowledge on this. Thanks,
