The Road To Basel Episode 7: The Rigorously Simple Watches Of Ochs Und Junior
Ochs Und Junior just might be the coolest watch company in the world. You probably haven't heard of them, unless you're a regular reader of HODINKEE or some other like-minded publication. You see, they don't have any brand ambassadors or marketing budget at all. They don't have any retailers, anywhere. All Ochs Und Junior watches are sold directly through the Oxloft, a converted workspace, gallery, and boutique in downtown Lucerne. Their watches aren't even marked with the brand's name. What Ochs Und Junior does have though is one of the cleanest design structures of any line of watches, a brilliant watchmaker as a co-founder, and one of the most compelling brands around. 1 OF 10 Ochs Und Junior was founded in 2006 as an outlet for the horological concepts of Ludwig Oechslin. Oechslin is a Doctor of Theoretical Physics and qualified mathematician, astronomer, archaeologist, and master watchmaker.  He was behind some of Ulysse Nardin's most

Time Gain Compensation
I recently received, as a fifth anniversary present from my wife, a SS Submariner, K- series. Absolutely love it and except for sleeping and golf it has not left my wrist since she presented me with it!After synching it with ¡°timeanddate¡± for a week I find that it runs right around +6 seconds a day. My thought to ¡°address¡± this is to set it exactly one minute behind at the start of each month and then reset it at the end when/if I would adjust the date. That way the approx. 3 minutes gained would be spread out over 30 or so days rather than starting it at the correct time and have it end up plus 3 minutes at the end of the month.In my OCD filtered mind it would ¡°feel¡± better to have my watch be slightly off at the beginning and end of the month and pretty much ¡°on time¡± in the middle section. Any thoughts on this are appreciated!

Viva Italia!
Hey everybody, Jim here in beautiful Rome, Italy.

Perpetual calender
I have decide on purchasing a perpetual CALENDER (preowned or grey market) and I am deciding between 3940/5140 or 5059/5159 in either rose gold or platinum. I simply can't justify spending far greater amount on a brand new piece. I would like input from those experienced in purchasing a used watch from Ebay, or one of dealers that appear on the Chrono24 site. What are the pitfalls and how may one best mitigate risks in purchasing from such sources?

Best Clasp...SMP or Speedy ??
It's no secret....My favorite Omegas are the Speedy Pro and the Seamaster Pro (with swords). Both of these watches come with identical bracelets; one of the most comfortable on the market.However, they each come with a different clasp.The Speedy comes with a slightly smaller clasp, but it is equipped with a couple of micro holes for adjustment, a nice touch. Unfortunately, the smaller clasp allows much of the deployant clamshell to fit under the links and while not a huge issue, does make it slightly less well thought out.The SMP comes with a slightly longer clasp to hide the divers extension link so the deployant is covered by the clasp, but any adjustment needs to be done by adding or removing links...even for a slight seasonal comfort change.Overall, I would like to see the Speedy come equipped with the larger SMP clasp. The real winner would be if they put a couple of micro holes in the SMP clasp and fitted it to all their Pro line.Semaster Pro on the left and Speedy Pro on the
