Hands-On: With The Breguet 7077 La Tradition Chronograph Independant
Breguet introduced somewhat of a show-stopper with its new 7077 La Tradition Chronograph this year. The La Tradition line is no stranger to innovation - e.g. the Fusée Tourbillon - but the 7077 Chronograph represents quite a bit of technical innovation. For starters, it essentially contains two movements and a complete separation of timekeeping versus chronograph-ing accuracy. Literally. One balance is always in full swing, while the other springs into higher-frequency action when activating the chronograph. 1 OF 3 The new 7077 Chronograph is almost completely open-worked. Front and center at 12 o'clock is a sub dial with hob-nail pattern guilloche work in the expected Breguet style. Carved out from this dial in an expansive fashion are the power reserve indicator on the right and the chronograph minutes on the left.A medley of blasted plates, perfectly decouvertured jewel holes and sharp beveling make up the bulk of what's on display, until we reach the tw

Introducing: The Senfine Concept Watch From Parmigiani Fleurier, With An Amazing Escapement That All
?At any given SIHH or Baselworld, you’re obviously always going to see a plethora (to put it mildly) of new watches, but one thing you don’t see very often is a new escapement. That’s because designing a new escapement – much less one that can actually be produced in large enough numbers to be commercially viable – is probably the single biggest problem in watchmaking. Over the centuries since the very first – the verge escapement – was used in clocks, there have really been only a handful that have been used extensively, and in watchmaking, it’s a virtually certainty that any watch you buy is going to have a lever escapement. But not this one. 1 OF 7 Omega now uses the Daniels co-axial escapement in all its in-house movements but it was a huge challenge for them to make it and enormously expensive in both time and money to industrialize, and departures from the lever in modern watchmaking tend to be made in very small numbe

Mechanicals in Space Question
Good Morning:We have all read about the great accomplishments of mechanicals in space, including Omega's tremendous success both on the moon, and in earning the Snoopy award for it's great service during Apollo 13.I have not read any info on the accuracy of mechanicals in space...does anyone know what the effects of reduced gravity have on watch accuracy?Would the results in space be diiferent than on earth, and if so, faster or slower?I have always been curious about this and would love to learn more.

HiI had the chance to try out my friends Sub C today and I took the chance to take some photos with my Iphone together with my Planet Ocean Liquid Metal. Both are beutiful and great watches, but I am still happy that I got the PO LM instead of the Sub C, it just looks more modern and have nicer details IMHO. Enjoy the pics

New Arrival on the Way - My First Post and My First Rolex!
I just purchased my first Rolex, and figured it was the perfect time to join the forum and start becoming a contributor! I use the same username on another watch forum (lowmandfl), but I've lurked on TRF a for a long time. To be honest, TRF was a huge contributor in my decision to get a Rolex.It took me a long time to actually make my first Rolex Purchase, but it's been a really fun journey for me and I wanted to post a little about it here since I've been waiting to become part of the Rolex Club for years. The watch arrives tomorrow, so I'll post about my first impressions with some photos when I finally get it in hand; I can't wait! I got a call last week from my AD, and he said they had a Deepsea D-blue in stock. I was second on the list, but apparently the first guy decided to go another direction. Long story short, it was mine for the taking! The Deepsea is a watch I've admired since it first came out in 2008 and I saw one at an AD for the first time. I remember the salesperson se
