Omega Supports Solar Powered Flight
Solar Impulse is a prototype aircraft powered by the Sun, and on a clear April day over the Swiss town of Payerne, it took its first serious test flight. Seven years in the making, the goal of the venture is to demonstrate that it is possible to fly around the world using only solar power. The top of the craft’s wings are covered with 12,000 solar cells, occupying a wingspan of 206 feet – just a few feet shorter than a 747, yet the plane weighs only about 3750 pounds. The nearly $100 million project is headed up by Bertrand Piccard, the Swiss adventurer who completed the first non-stop around the world balloon flight in 1999. His partner is Andr¨¦ Borschberg, an engineer and fighter pilot. On Wednesday, the Solar Impulse team took the first major step toward their goal with a test flight that lasted about 2 hours, during which they achieved an altitude of about 4000 feet. Later this year, the crew will test the plane’s ability to fly at night using lithium batteries.Om

Found: The Watch That Would (Not) Be King: A Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Made For King Edward VIII
This vintage Reverso is one with a stronger than usual connection to history, and it's a memento of a crisis. Engraved on the back with a dedication to a king, it would never be worn by its intended recipient. It now reposes in the Jaeger-LeCoultre museum collection, a silent testimony to a moment when a king had to choose between a woman, and his kingdom.Edward VIII always knew his relationship with Wallis Simpson, an American divorcée, would make him an unpopular King. But the death of his father, King George V, precipitated his ascension to the throne on January 20, 1936. Tormented between his responsibilities as the new Head of the Church of England and his unholy relationship with Simpson, Edward would spend his first months on the throne seeking the counsel of those around him, including the Prime Minister. Could Simpson be his Queen? 1 OF 4 Amidst all the uncertainty and anxiety attending his ascension to the throne, the presence of almost any watch dwin

DLC'd"Gylcine Incursore" 46mm... just completed last week.
Here is a timepiece that is rather simple but yet sophisticated. This Incursore was sent out to me with the request to get it DLC coated in Pencil lead dark DLC color. After the watch was taken apart the entire case set, including the case back, crown and buckle underwent a 3 step beadblasting procedure so to get the most perfect matte texture possible. After that was done, the parts got DLC coated in Dark pencil lead color so to match the dial.The result relieved a unique contrast b/n the hands and indices against the rest of the watchI hope you enjoy the pics.*the watch was pressure tested and accuracy aligned on a timograph as a standard procedure.I hope you enjoy the pics following below:

crazy or what??
I will present 2 watches .One is a SS watch with an outdated complication which is of no use to anyone at allThe second is a gold watch with a stunning automatic movementIf you should ask 99% of watch collectors, I would hazard a guess and say the mojority would value no 2 way above no1However as most of us here know no 1 ranks way above no2.Why??Who knowsThey are both just a beautiful- similar case and similar face

Movement Peak-a-boo
I just bought a Rolex 6422 and I want to see the movement. If I unscrew the back will it no longer be water proof? Will I need a new gasket? I have documentation from the Watch Buyers Group out of Pasadena that the watch is genuine but, I want to see for myself.
