For its May meeting, the Horological Society of New York will welcome a special guest from Germany, Ulrike Kranz. Kranz will lecture on the history of the German Marine Chronometer, a topic she is very familiar with after her time working at the German Watch Museum and her position today at Glashtte Original. In addition to the lecture itself, a selection of historic timepieces from the German Watch Museum will also be on display. With the founding of the German Empire in 1871 and growing interest in international trade, the German Navy became more and more important to the German government. To reduce reliance on English imports (including the well-known Englis...

On April 3, the Horological Society of New York (HSNY) celebrated its 151st anniversary with a gala dinner and charity auction in Midtown Manhattan. Members and guests from across the country gathered to celebrate New York's horological tradition, see the presentation of the Henry B. Fried Scholarship, and bid on a collection of vintage timepieces. Steve Eagle (HSNY's Director of Education, right) presenting the 2017 Henry B. Fried Scholarship to Justin Shellenberger. The Henry B. Fried Scholarship was established to assist American watchmaking students in their studies at full-time watchmaking schools and was awarded fo...

The Girard-Perregaux Laureato has gone through so many mutations and transformations since the design was first introduced in 1975, that it's hard to think of a single model that really embodies its essence. The first Laureato, after all, was a thin quartz watch and it represents a period when not only GP, but the Swiss watch industry as a whole, was struggling to find a way through the Quartz Crisis.? The first GP Laureato, from 1975. GP quartz caliber 705, with seven jewels, as used in the first 1975 Laureato. That the first Laureato was a quartz watch, not a mechanical one, is significan...

It's been a while since SIHH, and, as you may recall, we saw a lot of watches back in January at the show. One watch that we saw but didn't really get to talk about was the updated Vacheron Constantin Overseas in 37mm without diamonds. You may remember briefly seeing this watch as?Ben's pick for best ladies' watch from SIHH, but there's more to it than that. While this isn't groundbreaking news, like, say, the?Celestia Astronomical Grand Complication, it is exciting for those of us who actually want to buy a watch to wear daily in a slightly smaller size. The new two-tone Overseas 37mm with rose gold bezel and crown. As you re...

Romain Gauthier's watches can be a little intimidating at first. They're plenty handsome and comfortable, but they're also highly technical and finished to the highest degree. It's easy to feel either unworthy of such a horological work, or that you'd be better served by something simpler. But spend a little time with these watches C the new Insight Micro-Rotor in particular C and I guarantee you'll end up wishing you had one of your own. The Insight is Romain Gauthier's first micro-rotor watch, seen here in red gold with a white enamel dial. Romain Gauthier unveiled the Insight at Baselworld just a few weeks ago. It's the thi...

As long as this little site has been on the interwebs, I've been talking about how much I love the idea of early travel watches (see?). There is something so beautiful about them C so romantic. Or, to borrow a term from my colleague Cara, they're just "chic AF." Why? Think about what international travel meant in the 1960s. We're talking about donning your Sunday best as you step aboard one of the first commercial jet-liners (Boeing 707 or Douglas DC-8, naturally). Once aboard, you're met by a smiling, well-dressed young man or woman, and served the drink of your choice, or maybe several drinks of your choice. The entire cabin is respectful of the fact that international travel is even possi...

The latest complication from Ralph Lauren is a minute repeater, which seems at first glance like a risky undertaking bordering on foolhardy. After all, there are to this day quite a lot of vocal objections to the idea of Ralph Lauren doing a watch collection at all, much less one that includes such an elevated complication. At the same time though, I've always felt that if you are going to accept the idea of Ralph Lauren as a maker of luxury watches at all, you have to give the idea its head, so to speak, which means the question is not, does Ralph Lauren have a right to make a minute repeater, so much as it is, has Ralph Lauren made an interesting minute repeater? ...

In January 2017, Jean-Claude Biver announced that he would be acting as interim CEO for Zenith, in addition to staying Head of Watchmaking at LVMH, Chairman of Hublot, and CEO of TAG Heuer. He's a busy man. At the time, the plan was to find a full time candidate within six months, and now just three months later we've got our guy. The news broke today that Julien Tornare is taking over as the top boss at Zenith after spending the last 17 years at Vacheron Constantin. It is no secret that of the LVMH watch brands Zenith has been having the hardest go of things recently, a fact that pushed Jean-Claude Biver to energetically step in just before SIHH this year. At th...

This is one of the most unlikely and wonderful little machines to come out of Jaeger-LeCoultre, ever. You may have read about the Compass Camera before, but if not, it's a compact camera that JLC made in the late 1930s, and at the time it was one of the most technically advanced cameras anyone had ever made. Machined out of aluminum, it's a 35mm film camera, with rangefinder, ground glass viewfinder, exposure meter, and a ton of other bells and whistles, all in a package just 2 3/4 inches x 2 1/4 inches x 1 1/4 inches. The Compass Camera was the brainchild of a guy who, if you were in an especially charitable mood, you'd describe...

Ever heard of Dieter Rams? He was the design director of Braun from 1955 to 1995, the decades when it built its ber-purist appliances, record players, radios, clocks, and watches. Even if you've never used one of his creations, you've definitely felt his influence in the objects you see and touch every day. We got in touch with the watch and clock designer that worked with Rams, the man behind the no-nonsense AW 10 and AW 50 watches, which were just reissued at Baselworld 2017, to get a little more insight into these truly timeless designs.

Theres a very good chance youve never heard about this watch, nor seen any pictures of it, despite the fact that it's not some brand new release dropping today. And why might that be? First off, its not even on IWCs website. So you can imagine my surprise when, flipping through IWCs 2016/2017 catalogue, I landed on this watch. Immediately I knew I had to get my hands on one to take a closer look. The reason IWC hasnt talked about it until now C and I suspect that will change very soon C is because the company likes to focus on one collection at a time. When it comes to new product launches, thats been the strategy at IWC for a number of years. So when it r...

The closer you look at reality, the weirder it tends to look, especially if you're using the twin lenses of general relativity and quantum mechanics. It's thanks to the latter that we can build ultra-accurate atomic clocks (like this one). One of the most interesting features of high precision atomic clocks, is that they can actually measure something called relativistic time dilation effects C but when you add quantum theory to the mix, it turns out that the more accurate a clock is, the less accurate clocks around it can be. How does that work? Well, relativity assigns an idealized clock C a non-physical one C to every "worldline," which refers to a timeline as...

Tomorrow we're launching a brand new video series C Friday Live. At the end of each week we'll be coming to you with a live video stream straight from the HODINKEE office (or somewhere else around the world) with a group of our editors reviewing the week in watches and looking forward to what lies ahead. Sometimes it will be just us and other times we'll bring in interesting guests. To get things started, we've got something extra special planned. On our very first episode of Friday Live, we're bringing in the big guns. Cara and Stephen will be joined by?Christoph Grainger, the newly-minted CEO of IWC. Grainger has been with IWC for over a decade, but comes from ...

Let's start this week with a big name: the Rolex 'Paul Newman' Daytona, easily one of the most coveted in vintage watches. The one we have is not only in nice condition, but comes full set directly from the original owner, according to the auction catalog. So we can expect some heated action in a Chicago auction room next week. We have also rounded up a great Eberhard Scientigraf, and a blue Universal Genve Compax, among other picks. This is your Bring A Loupe for April 21, 2017. Eberhard Scientigraf Reference 11538, With Anti-Magnetic Properties The Scientigraf got more than an honorable mention in Phil...

Today we're kicking off our newest video series C Friday Live. At the end of every week we'll now be bringing you a live video stream direct from HODINKEE HQ in New York City (or wherever our editors happen to be in the world) to recap the week in watches and look ahead to what's coming up. To get things started, Cara and Stephen will be talking about the May auction previews, Stephen's most recent visit to Switzerland, and Cara's favorite new release. As a bonus, we've got Christoph Grainger, the new CEO of IWC to chat about this year's novelties and where he's hoping to take IWC....

Ive never had to explain to someone why I write about watches for a living. People instantly get it. Its an incredibly fascinating position to be in. However, I often find myself explaining how Im able to write about watches without repeating myself. For whatever reason, people seem to think that at some point, you run out of things to say or watches to talk about. The truth is, there are plenty of watches I've never written a word about, and even more I'm yet to see. Even some of the big ones, like, until now, this. The Breguet Number 1160 comes in an extraodinary watch case made from an Oak tree that was cut down in the garden of Versailles. ...

In late March, the vintage watch world was rapt with attention over one very particular eBay watch auction. The listing was for a Submariner C but not a Rolex Submariner, a Tudor Submariner. And to be clear, it wasn't even for the desirable "Big Crown" Submariner. No, this was actually a far more special and to many C including myself C one of the most quietly interesting Rolex or Tudor dive watches of all time.? This Tudor Reference 7923 sold in late March for $99,999. The Tudor Submariner reference 7923 is unique in this family because it is the only manually wound dive watch that either Rolex or Tudor ever made. And what's ...

If you are familiar with HODINKEE or early wristwatches, you have likely heard of the "Radium Girls," the young women employed by the United States Radium Corporation in the early 20th century to paint the dials of wristwatches and clocks with luminous material. Back then, the hazards of radioactivity, and the dangers of radiation exposure, weren't well understood. And the "girls" were encouraged to even put the paint brushes in their mouths for finer hand-work. That is until many of the radium girls began to grow ill, and eventually a group of them filed suit against their employer. The suit eventually led to considerable advances in workers rights and set the stage for many labor safety st...

Welcome to another edition of HODINKEE's Weekend Report, where we look at off-topic subjects that are on-topic for watch enthusiasts.Other than watches, the single piece of gear we're most exposed to at HODINKEE is unquestionably cameras. In the course of producing our stories we shoot thousands of images of watches a year, as well as coverage of events, travelogue material for stories like our Road Through Britain series, and more. Gear used varies with who's shooting, and what's being shot C some editorial is shot with full frame DSLRs but there are also Micro 4/3 cameras in the mix, and others (Managing Editor Stephen Pulvirent favors an APSC-sensor mirrorless, for instance).? ...

In keeping with its usual practice of devoting each year to refreshing a particular product line, IWC brought out a totally redesigned Da Vinci family at this year's SIHH. Of all the IWC families, Da Vinci may be the hardest sell C unlike the brand's technical and aviation themed watches, Da Vinci is, and historically has always been (with one exception), a way of showing off IWC as a complications specialist. Stylistically, the Da Vinci family has much more to do with wristwatch design idioms that considerably pre-date the pioneering steel tool watches that became so popular after the end of World War II, and they also stand very much apart stylistically from every other IWC family. ...
