The best conversation I had at SIHH 2017 was with American car legend Peter Brock. Noted as the designer of the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe, Peter Brock worked with the great (and sadly, late) Carroll Shelby and the Shelby Cobra race car collection. In the early 1960s, the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe CSX2299 debuted on […]
Baume & Mercier make a range of classically styled watches, usually priced in the $2,000 to $5,000 price range. Occasionally, they offer something a bit special, something that is “an emblem of flawless watchmaking,” as they describe the Clifton collection, and that is what’s on offer today. The Baume & Mercier Clifton Perpetual Calendar is […]
The tachymeter is stainless steel with amount engravings on a stationary bezel with one of those number engravings being “184,” the rate where Burt Munro broke the land speed record. Moving inwards, the dial is sandblasted at a silverish-white colour to mimic the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah and the number indices are black rhodium […]
As Baume & Mercier’s signature semi-casual dress watch, the classically resourceful Clifton is able to play host to a pretty wide variety of complications – everything from simple GMT and moonphase displays, to perpetual calendars and this wild minute-repeating pocket watch. So it should come as little surprise that for 2017, just as in years’ […]
Did you know that famed car designer Carroll Shelby had a serious heart condition that made him heavily dependent on nitroglycerin pills – and/or a reliable source of adrenalin to keep his heart beating? And that to keep himself off the medication for as long as possible, he started to take part in motor racing, while […]
The final result? Well, in theory, a more even, inherently secure chronometric performance and greater long-term precision. Granted, we’ll have to withhold judgement until we’ve examined one in the actual world. But for now, it’s interesting to see more and more brands go from Nivarox (and by extension, the Swatch Group), rather choosing to create […]
Are we pumped for SIHH 2018 yet? Just like the “holiday shopping season” and beginning around the same time, it seems like the new-product announcements get earlier every year. With still more than a month to go, the 2018 models that we will get to see in Geneva in January have already started coming in. […]
Racing could ensue, the thunder of pistons bashing away as the riders pinned back their throttles in the beginning line, hammering their brakes a 1/4 mile afterwards, then ripping through the gears again back to where they had started from. A combination of drag racing and barrel racing; every rider would begin in neutral using […]
