Hoptroff No. 10 Atomic Pocket Watch: Interview On Making A Time Gadget For The Future
There's going to be a rather interesting watch presented later this year at SalonQP 2013 in London - an atomic pocket watch called the No. 10 by Hoptroff. At first blush, you're probably thinking that it's just another atomic radio signal-syncing timepiece, albeit one that's in a different format than we're used to seeing (and even quite different from Bathys' Cesium 133 atomic clock watch creation). However, this has the potential to be something a whole lot cooler (and one you likely wouldn't want to take through airport security). The Hoptroff No. 10 is actually going to rely on an on-board atomic clock that relies on a cesium oven (which is why we're seeing this in a pocket watch case, and not on your wrist) to maintain accuracy with the same Symmetricom atomic clock ship that the Bathys Cesium 133 uses, but here in a larger and probably more logical pocket watch form.While details are still forthcoming (we'll be able to provide a better sense of the watch as the November start of

Orient Disk Review
Today we have in for review the Disk by Orient, a fun and youthful watch with unique design elements that help it really stand out. The Disk makes use of some simple, but clever functionality on the dial to impressive effect, while maintaining a simple, sleek aesthetic. It further differentiates itself from other watches with a similar design aesthetic by being an automatic. More often than not, especially at the sub-$250 price point, watches like the Disk are quartz and marketed squarely at a non-watch enthusiast market.? Not the case with the Disk.

What other Auto Chrono's am I not considering within my price range?
I guess my "benchmarks" right now are the Longines Hydorconquest and Tag Aquaracer (both attached). What other automatic chrono's am I not considering that are within the price range of my "benchmarks" (i.e. online stores have the Longines available around $1300 and the Tag at $1600).Also, any suggestions for reputable online merchants?

movement regulation
Are there any rules of thumb for regulating an automatic (Swiss) movement by leaving the watch in a different position overnight? For example, watch runs slow, leave it crown down overnight. Runs fast, crown up. I'm refering to ETA movements. I thought I saw that Rolex instructions come with this sort of information.

new PP AD first in nine year in the USA
So, Hodinkee is reporting here:.hodinkee/blog/patek-p...ver-nine-yearsIMHO, it is sad (maybe a failure, really) that this brand, with its many wonderful pieces, cannot increase production while maintaining quality, expand its network and its presence in the world.I really don't believe in what many here (there, and everywhere...) will say in its defense: it is exclusive, rare, blah, blah, blah...So, now that I stated my piece, what you fellows think?
