IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Pure Classic Watch
Despite the latest?technical breakthroughs in forging new materials, creating new in-house movement designs, or manufacturing rugged watches for "ingenieurs," the general appeal?of simple and refined dress watches is something no?luxury brand can ignore. In recent years, IWC has been busy?restyling its Portuguese Chronograph (review here) and Aquatimer (debut article here)?collections, and now, it appears, the time has come to offer something "pure and classical."?So pure and classical, that IWC decided to add these phrases to the name of its new-for-2015 dress watch: the IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Pure Classic (reference IW511101 in red gold and IW511102 in steel).The dress watch is not dead: among fierce competition between luxury brands to create the latest, greatest, most complicated and most resistant (to whatever impact the wearer himself/herself could never possibly?survive), there actually?still is a massive market?for restrained and classical looking timepieces.?Clearly, the IWC

Hermes Le Temps Suspendu Watch: Why Do You Suspend Time?
As Hermes fends off attacks from LVMH to retain its independence they also continue to push forward with their prowess as watch makers. For 2011 their horological focal point is the Arceau Le Temps Suspend" watch. That literally means "time suspended," and that is exactly what it does.The watch has been in development for a few years now. Mainly because they couldn't get it to work until they enlisted Mr. Fix-It Jean-Marc Wiederrecht. For me Jean-Marc will always primarily be one of the MB&F "Friends." The time suspended complication isn't that complicated to understand. The watch normally has the time with a retrograde date display. Press the pusher on the left side of the case and the hands jump to a rigid rabbit eared position.and just stop moving. Inside the watch, the movement still keeps track of the time, but you can't see it on the dial. Press the pusher again and the time returns to normal. Child's play.Wiederrecht assured me that the system was reliable and durable. Meani

Cyma Time-O-Vox Restoration
I just got my Grandmothers Cyma alarm back from a 3 month restoration.I had the movement restored, the case cleaned and polished, and the crystal replaced. I left the hands and dial (other than a slight cleaning) intact to keep a bit of the "history". Before.After with more detailed photos to come...So far it's keeping wonderful time and the alarm functions wonderfully. A little small for my wrist but I still intend to wear it.
