LumiSidus 11 24k Gold Watch Winder Hands-On
If we take a step back and think about the number of ultra-high-end, highly complicated watches released over the last couple of years, and add to that number the amount of money collectors around the world have shelled out for them, it?might come as shocking that the?variety of matching luxurious watch winders is, in fact, extremely limited. That is not to say, though, that there would not be demand for cool displays: most presently available winders are either boxy and rather uninspiring in their design, or are massive vault-like items that hide the watches under thick?metal doors or unbreakable reflective?glass. Showcasing watches in a very interesting new way ¨C while actually treating them?with the care they?demand ¨C is where the LumiSidus 11 watch winder comes into the picture.While high-end watches appear destined to be hidden away inside vaults and safes, only to be on display once in a while, I can totally imagine fancy offices, living rooms, and bedrooms where their owner woul

Help with quartz movement
Hi folks,I have this problem nagging me since yesterday. I was tinkering around with a broken Japanese movement in a 'Trump' watch, to my delight i fixed it and made it work ! But annoyingly one detail is off.The watch has a 24 hour dial, and it doesn't match with the regular hour hand i.e if the time shows 6 am, the 24 hour dial shows 8 AM. The date changes when the 24 hour dial crosses 24 mark, that tells me that some how the hour hand setting is leading by 2 hours.Is there a way I can fix this, this is bugging me and I cannot concentrate on my day job :) any advice will be much appreciated.peace ...

Factoid of the Day 6-12-08

His usual fist-banging has resulted in his wrist watch falling off his arm. When he picked it up from the ground, he saw his shoes, which he had taken off earlier because the stiff new leather was bothering him. He instantly decided that a shoe would make for much better banging than his wrist (and it would spare his watch). And so, out of purely practical reasons, the shoe banging resulted. Khrushchev's shoe became yet another symbol of the Cold War. An era of retorics and tensions, topped with a dash of propaganda.
