Christopher Ward C9 5-Day SS Chronometer Review
When Christopher Ward first announced the C9 5-Day SS Chronometer (SS for small seconds), I was immediately very excited. It took their awesome in-house 5-day chronometer movement, the SH21, modified it to be hand wound and feature small seconds at 6, put it in a modestly sized case, and styled it in the classic aesthetic of Marine Chronometers. In doing so, it combined a bunch of things I really liked into a very aesthetically pleasing package. To make things even more appealing, they gave it a very compelling price point of $1,780. Not cheap, but a solid value for what the watch offers. After all, no one else is offering anything close to a 5-day COSC movement at this price.The watch is also was a bit of an interesting departure for the brand. While they've had the C9 line going for some time, the Marine Chronometer aesthetic is a change, but a very welcome one that makes a lot of sense for the brand. Other C9 watches are almost Art Deco in styling, but this watch speaks to a British

My trip to Washington D.C.
We just returned from a trip to Washington DC. Hotter than Hades, but had a great time. The top images are of a Roy Lichtenstein sculpture located in the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden between Constitution Avenue and Madison Drive. As I was covering one eye to see the differences in perspectives of the house, my wife snapped a watch pict of my GMT-C.The images below are of my GMT-C sitting on top of a Boeing 747 front landing wheel assembly. Needless to say, the front wheel is larger in diameter than I am tall.The third row of images are of Mercury Friendship 7 capsule that John Glen climbed into on February 20th, 1962 while wearing the first Swiss watch that went into space. The particular story of my involvement on re-discovering the first Swiss watch in space is located here.The last row is the Smithsonian description of Mercury Friendship 7 and a background image of the Capitol steps. A great family trip-Sheldon

Satisfied with the novelties?
Wanted to know what you thought about this year's novelties?Went to see what Rolex did and was very disappointed, apart an interesting but not for me Yacht Master, and a new movement nothing good there.Of course the pilot watch is quite special and hard to believe that it's Patek who really made such a watch, the blue dial seems very nice in real life pics, but it was, IMO, stupid to make it in WG, for me such a watch needs to be SS. In any case I'm sure that in real it's a beautiful pilot watch, for those who like, not my case, but at probably around 50K because of the WG…Love the 5270, I prefer it to the 5970 personally, I think it's much more modern looking, though the 5970 is a beast also, so the new model without the chin is very cool, love that blue dial, I'm really a sucker for blue dials...I really like the 5905 in blue dial, for a chrono with AC it's a beauty, wonder how much it costs, I guess with the platinum around 80K, but as much as I wouldn't buy a chrono only watc
