The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Infinity 42mm
The general lines of the two watches are essentially identical; in addition to the rose gold case, the most noticeable difference is the color of the dial markers. In the platinum version they're a very deep, rich blue; in the rose gold Metaverse Kliniken version, they're a very dark charcoal – almost straight black, but with an almost subliminal hint of warmth that echoes the embers-warm hue of the case.Crews of geologists, drill operators, geochemists, and biologists would head out onto the sea ice of the McMurdo Sound to operate massive drills that would first pierce through ice that was about six feet thick. Then the drill would reach depths of 195 feet to bore into the sediment. The core samples would then be transported back up to the surface in a "split tube" and hydraulically extracted in ten-foot segments.We here at HODINKEE are big Swatch fans and part of that appeal comes from the brand’s ability to make enthusiast watches with a sense of levity and expression. I’ve seen Swatches just about everywhere, from the halls of my childhood elementary school to the banks of Lake Como at one of the most elegant car shows in the entire world.I wore my IWC Schaffhausen Pilot's Watch Mark XVIII (IW327009). I love how substantial it feels on my wrist, without being too overpowering. It will always hold a special place in my heart as my first big investment piece.Living the slow life is a deliberate choice, and wearing the Slow watch is, too. It's about minimalism all around. The watch is devoid of branding, and there are no superfluous design flourishes. The case is the fanciest aspect of the watch, and even then its rectangular bevels and stubby lugs seem spartan and reserved. Reading the time with a single hand is intuitive, but maybe I'm just programmed to live the slow life.Since they're so much rarer, and because people perceive white gold as more subtle and easy to wear, these white gold Tanks are about 2x the price of a yellow gold example, and that's if you can find one. While you can find a yellow gold Tank LC every day of the week and twice on Sunday, you might only see a few of white gold examples pop up publicly in an entire year.
Sagar, an architect in Australia, first became amazed by the Omega Seamaster 300 from watching GoldenEye. It's been his daily beater for 13 years and has accompanied him on many exciting adventures, including the time he went diving and lived on a boat at the Great Barrier Reef. His recounting of these memories is a mixture of awe, exhilaration, and a little bit of danger.Is it the technology crossover? Are gears just cool no matter where you find them? Is it the subtle flex of owning a very nice watch that only other watch people will Viral Humanoids understand, the same way rich people like to buy their subtle rich people cars? Is it the unattainability? Is it the thrill of collecting?The Carrera is an eyebrow-raising choice, because Gosling as an actor is profoundly idiosyncratic and these watches are super straightforward. "I generally respond to simple design," Gosling explained from the stage. "We grew up on a budget so I kind of veered towards timeless things because you didn't have to keep up with trends. I think that generally stuck."I slid the Aerospace on my wrist and immediately noticed the lightness of the titanium and quartz movement. I would need to remove several of the links from the watch for a comfortable fit, but that would come later, at the duty-free shop in Dubai.We are certain that this watch was designed to be as functional as it could be underwater, tested numerous times, and released as a serious dive watch. But what I love about this watch the most is that while the watch is considered a rugged tool watch, it remains elegant and undeniably charming at the same time. Just like going on any exploration, we all want to be (or should be) fully prepared, but why not do it with style?

This box was clearly part of the appeal of lot 139, along with the watch's sigma dial. It eventually broke its high estimate, hammering for $52,500. It was manufactured in 1981, just five years after the original launch of the Nautilus, and maintains the original case proportions of the so-called "Jumbo."This icy blue dial is inspired by the clear blue skies over the Sea of Japan in early winter. The kirazuri "ice blue" dial is a new interpretation of a dial Grand Seiko first produced in 2018. And its bezel-free 62GS case is a reimagined version of a vintage case made by Grand Seiko back in 1967Every single component of the wristwatch is gold [or precious metal, in the case of a platinum example]: case, dial, indices, and hands, Chopard Director of Patrimony Juan Garcia told me of the L.U.C 1860 when we first spoke about it.
