Introducing The Urwerk EMC: The First Mechanical Watch With Artifical Intelligence, Capable of Being Monitored And Regulated By Its Owner
In Urwerk's never-ending mission to produce some of the most interesting and genre-bending mechanical watches on the planet, we now present you with the EMC, or Electro Mechanical Control.? We showed you the movement to the EMC here back at Basel, but now the watch has been unveiled, and it's a doozy.? The EMC is "the world's first precision mechanical watch in which the timing can be monitored and adjusted by the user, on the fly - essentially? It's interactive. 2 OF 6 So what does this mean specifically? Well the watchmaker's best friend is a device called a Witschi, which listens to the rhythm of the balance and displays the performance of the movement, how much a movement gains or loses in 24 hours.? The EMC essentially has a Witschi built into it (electronic, though manually wound!) so that the wearer sees how his was his running.? And, the EMC offers the wearer to adjust the watch on the fly to keep chronometric performance at its peak. 3 OF 6 EMC feat

The Hermes "In The Pocket" Watch For The Only Watch Auction
More news from the Only Watch auction: Hermès has just released that it will be including the "In The Pocket" watch in the line up for the November 7 charity auction.Originally, the "In The Pocket" watch was inspired by the porte-oignon given to Jacqueline Herme?s by her father in 1912. The porte-oignon allowed Jacqueline, a keen horsewoman, to fasten her pocket watch to her wrist while she remained active. 1 OF 3 The design was re-designed and released in 2012 with the name "In The Pocket." The piece has returned to the market with a unique combination of rose gold case, black dial, and fitted into a H red Swift calfskin holster. The watch is 40 mm in diameter and becomes 49 mm in diameter when placed in the holster. The watch had a subsidiary seconds dial at 4 o'clock. The caliber H1837 automatic movement was made in-house and has 28 jewels. 2 OF 3 3 OF 3 For more information information on the Only Watch a

Here's a "before" photo of my DRSD project watch
I took a few before photos over the weekend as I'm taking it to my local guys who do all me vintage Rolex restoration work today at lunch. This photo shows the major problems. The bracelet is incorrect for this reference, and has the incorrect end links. The crown is mauled and needs replacing, as does the crystal....it's hard to get a decent dial shot with all the pits in the crystal. They'll do a light polish on the case - there's a few few battle scars, but nothing unusual for a watch of this vintage. I've also sourced some tritium bezel pearls, and will be putting one in the current insert. In past 1680 Submariners I've restored, I've changed the bezel insert out for a new one. On the advice of several folks, I'm not replacing this faded bezel - just repairing it with a new pearl. That seems to be the way vintage purists like these watches...we'll see if the look grows on me. This is a fun project on one of the greatest vintage Rolex references of them all! I'm hoping to
