Omega Celebrates The Speedmaster And The 45th Anniversary Of Apollo 13
As I sit in the lounge awaiting a non-stop flight to Houston, I can't help but contrast the banality of my upcoming flight against the razor's edge reality of flying an Apollo mission. I'll be flying in a modern aircraft, ferried from one computer-controlled terminal to another, in relative comfort. The risks are negligible and my "training" can be effectively ignored for about three minutes as the plane taxis to the correct runway. Once underway, my only duties are to relax, read a book and likely eat more food and drink more coffee than my hunger warrants. To force the term, my "mission" is to act as cargo for roughly four and a half hours until arriving in Houston, wherein Omega has invited me to a celebration of Apollo 13, the Omega Speedmaster, and a few of the actual people that ferried their iconic chronograph into the final frontier and then relied upon its mechanical capabilities to bring them home.In contrast, by the time they made it to their mission, Apollo astronauts were

Nomos Lambda Watch Is New Higher-End Offering From German Brand
Today, Glashutte-based Nomos is introducing two new higher-end watches; the "Lambda" and the "Lux (discussed here)" We chose to cover each of them in a separate article. This is the Lambda, and with it is the Lux we will cover in another post. Both are similar timepieces that are offered in different case shapes - each with questionable namesAvailable in either 18k rose or white gold, these Teutonic timepieces take what we already love about Nomos to a new, more "luxury" playing ground. Each of course contains a totally in-house made Nomos mechanical movement and a minimalist Bauhaus style.The announcement of these more luxury watches is a bit strange because it goes against what the brand is for many people. Nomos is where you go when you want a well-made mechanical watch without the typical luxury pricing premium. Most will agree that the Lambda could be more expensive for sure, but it is certainly a much more expensive product compared to what we are used to seeing from the fine Ger

A Week On The Wrist: The Hermes Dressage L¡¯Heure Masqu¨¦e
Some of the most original watch designs in recent years have come from a company that’s not, for the general luxury loving public, especially associated with watches: Hermès. However the company actually has a quite long history of offering timepieces under its name; the first Hermès labeled watches were actually sold at 24 Faubourg St.-Honoré in 1928, and the company had, for instance, relationships with companies as varied as Universal Geneve and Jaeger LeCoultre (in fact as recently as 2013, Hermès collaborated with Jaeger LeCoultre in the creation of an Atmos clock) of many years’ duration. Perhaps, therefore, it is more logical as well as more reasonable to view their relatively recent foray into creating their own timepiece collections, and unusual complications, as an extension of a decades-long tradition, rather than as a new effort per se. Hermès is a company that historically has placed high value on retaining its indepen

Last Planned Watch Purchase for the Year
Well,with 20 years fiscal servitude approaching I'm winding down the watch purchases for the immediate future and will be concentrating on getting the non-runners up and going (one at a time).I want to get a PW before I wind down so I'm looking for ideas. I reckon on spending around the 600 mark so I need some ideas.Railways intrigue me but I'm open to suggestions.Sean

~20 year old Seamaster 300: Is it even worth selling?
When I was in college, I bought a Seamaster 300 (https://.omegawatches/en-us/w...eter-25318000/) because I thought the James Bond watch was cool. I put it on a strap pretty early in its life and have since lost the bracelet.I've had it serviced (as recently as 2016), but I literally NEVER wear it. I wonder if there would even be a market for a watch like that if I tried to sell it. If it'd only fetch a few hundred bucks, I don't think it'd be worth it.Anyone have an opinion? Should I just keep it as a beater, or might it actually be worth selling?
