Lang & Heyne Augustus I Watch Remembers Your Special Dates
Lang & Heyne out of Dresden, Germany will release a very interesting new calendar watch for 2014, called the Augustus I, named after the 19th century king of Saxony, Frederick Augustus I. The point of the watch is very unique: to have a sort of computational calendar that tracks the dates and anniversaries of 12 custom events or people¨C and all in symmetrically attractive dial.Each Augustus I watch will be made to order per the specific wishes of each customer. That is natural because there is no way for Lang & Heyne to make the watch without knowing the the 12 events and their dates. To that effect Lang & Heyne has claimed that they will produce perhaps three Augustus I watches each year. The concept of how the watch works is relatively simple, but explaining it is a challenge mostly because their press release reads like East German shortwave radio instructions.According to Lang & Heyne, the calculating element in the Augustus I watch that not only indicates the dates

Incoming - Seiko White Samurai
I have a bit of a thing for white faced watches, especially white faced dive watches. I already have a Seiko White Knight but had also had my eye on a White Samurai as well for a while. I recently had the opportunity to add to my collection and my budget was about that for the Sammy. I hunted around although these are a discontinued model I managed to find a new one online.It is a great looking watch, in my opinion. It is a bit dressier than a standard dive watch due to the white dial, but the slightly squared case still gives it a rugged feel. The dial is easily legible, despite it being mostly the same colour. The red seconds hand is nice little touch. It uses the 7S35 movement, having hour, min, sec and date. The bezel is unidirectional with 120 clicks and moves well, having a good amount of resistance without being too stiff.The only thing that I am a bit disappointed in is the bracelet. It feels a bit light when compared with some of my other watches, but it is still a good one w

How to clean a DSOTM?
Hi, I never had a strap watch before. I was told to use leather conditioner for the leather side of the strap and warm water for the cordura side. If that's the case, any recommendations for the type of leather conditioner and spring bar tool remover so as to remove the strap when cleaning the case?Thanks.

living with colour
wondering if those of you with the colourful rolexes eventually get bored of them. i'm assuming if you've a multi-watch collection it's a non-issue, but how about those of you with just one watch? for those that've moved on, how long until you got sick of it? i've never owned a colourful one, but am very intrigued by the hulk and kermit, as well as the new rootbeer gmt. the only one that's never really done it for me is the smurf. really love the green and cherry dd's, as well as any of the old stella dials! of course photos are encouraged!
