Technical Perspective: Stopping The Whirlwind: Four Tourbillons With Stop Seconds, And Why That Matters
One of the single most important features of watches intended to keep very accurate time is the presence of a stop seconds function. The single most important purpose of the tourbillon – as Breguet originally conceived it, certainly – is to make a watch more accurate. You would think therefore, in a rational universe, that you would see the tourbillon and a stop seconds function paired frequently, if not invariably . . . but you'd be wrong.First of all, let's talk tourbillon. The basic idea behind the tourbillon is pretty simple: it's a solution to a really old problem in watchmaking, which is that a watch will run very slightly faster, or slower, depending on what position it's in. This is mostly due to how gravity pulls on the balance and balance spring in different positions. For example, think of the balance, which has at its center the balance staff (a very, very thin steel pivot). The tips of the balance staff sit inside the holes of two jewels, and wh

I came across this, on another site.I am not sure if its been posted here before. I had to share it with you .I have no idea where this is, If somebody out there knows please, post the detailsThanks

Please share some wrist shot of your Royal Oak Offshore Tour Auto 2012 Chronograph.
I'm kind of new to AP watches, and I've been thinking of purchasing one in near future. So far, I'm so impressed with the ROO Tour Auto 2012 Chronograph. In overall it looks so different then other APs, especially the dial (white color tapestry model with red hands and blue markers) and also its blue color rubber with red stitching.What do you guys think of this beauty? Who in here already have it? Any comment and wrist shot will be appreciated. Thanks.-Leo-

Winding feel question
I have a Hulk and a D-Blue and as far as I know both have the same movement, but on the sub the winding is much smoother and louder, than on D-DBlue, anyone with both a Sub and Deepsea notice these differences. Sub was bought new and D-Blue used, I also notice I can wind the Sub faster and it feels more sturdy, when I try and wind the D-Blue fast it almost feels like the gears slip a little, if that makes sense. sShould I be worried, 4 years warranty left on D-Blue, but it keeps perfect time, only issue is the winding described above.pics for interest

Almost bought a no date sub yesterday but I kept going back to the Air King so I brought it home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
