Antoine Martin Slow Runner Watch Has Largest Escapement
For 2013, Martin Braun's watch brand Antoine Martin will release their third major timepiece collection with the Slow Runner. Martin explained the concept of the Slow Runner to me last year by telling me that he was producing a simple watch with a huge slowly moving balance wheel. He sure wasn't kidding. If you've ever seen the balance wheel of old clocks operating, you know that there is a sort of hypnotic quality to seeing them move back and forth at a one hertz speed. Martin has successfully produced that experience for a wrist watch.Antoine Martin likes to point out that the Slow Runner is a "true" one hertz operating movement. What does that mean? Another popular watch that is of a similar vein is the Dutch Gronefeld One Hertz watch. That watch indeed had a second hand moving at one hertz, but the escapement was faster.

Considering first Panerai... Need some help
I'm considering my first Panerai and need some input from knowledgable owners. I'm very scared of the larger case sizes. I have a smaller frame at 5'7 and a 7 wrist. I've tried the 44mm and it swallows my wrist. I like the 42mm models but they seem to be harder to find. My attire M-F is business suit and want something that blends well with my work attire. Any suggestions on a 40mm or 42mm model? Any pics of Panerai with business suits?Thanks,
