Seiko Launches World¡¯s First Active Matrix EPD Watch
Seiko has announced the world¡¯s first watch with an active matrix EPD display. The watch features a 300 dpi high resolution display for very detailed graphics. You can choose from among five displays to suit your personal taste, or your mood. This solar-powered watch receives time-setting signals from the world¡¯s atomic clocks, assuring amazing accuracy. The time signals it receives are accurate to within one second in every 30 million years! The new EPD watch is powered by a self-recharging solar battery, so that no battery replacement is ever required. Once fully charged, thanks to Seiko¡¯s expertise in energy-efficient IC and other hi-tech electronics, the new EPD watch can run for up to nine months even without additional exposure to light. If no button is pressed while the watch remains in darkness for 72 hours, the ¡®sleep¡¯ mode is activated. In this mode, the watch remembers the time and continues to receive the radio signal for over three years! As soon as any button is pressed o

On a Vintage roll!
I had some time this afternoon so I shot a few pics of the futuristic automatic we call the Jetson's watch. I think it's from the mid 60's but I haven't had it opened to be sure. It's NOS so the pink wax is still on the back around the ballet dancer symbol, which makes it tough to see if the date code is stamped there as it normally is. This is one funky watch!I thought a few of you would get a kick out of this one.

thoughts on VC to complete the trinity?
any current owners of or opinions on the vacheron overseas 3-hand auto?I'm intrigued with the idea of adding the blue dial version (the recent generation) to complete the trinity next to the pp5712 and AP jumbo.

Abandunce of models suddenly - a theory
Many might know I am a huge fan of the 5327 blue dial and for various reasons being holding back (Baselworld etc). However every dealer I go to seems to have one in the window. Isn't it selling?? Then I noticed when looking for 5205R my AD only received them in October every year! Wierd!! No ways I was going to wait Then we have had a surge in 5131R's...increasing production? Cleaning out the cupboard??Here is my theory following chats with various AD's and Salons and my interpretation. PP is a profitable business and Swiss. Known for efficiencies and precision...it's obvious they schedule production runs. We know the cases are made in batches as are dials so it makes sense that in a factory of 2000 watchmakers they know down to the date and hour which assembly line will be doing which assemblies and how many and for how long. It's therefore feasible that following a run of Worldtime or 5327 these are shipped globally. You will therefore see a glut for a period of time until demand abs

Simona Strikes Again
Here are two of the three I just received. The tan calf S Line got most of the long weekend wear, but I switched to the seal skin for today:
