Well folks, I just wrapped filming a NOOM commercial. It was much more fun than I thought! I stressed all night then today just enjoyed myself. I hope my true message gets out about what it takes to get into a healthy place, and shared my illness and the successful rise above and beyond it. Even if my ad doesn’t air, it was a cool experience and a gracious director.
I never would have believed this would be my life just about a year ago. I am beyond blessed and a very happy girl.
Love, Sue
Our most on-the-nose selection today, this link watch is designed specifically to help folks time their outdoor cooking with something called link a Grill Bezel. We covered the watch and its Kickstarter in 2015, link and it doesn't appear to be a going concern these days, but fun to revisit a playful time in watchmaking history.
As time has gone on, we've naturally seen more and more watch companies gravitate toward higher-frequency movements. The standard these days is typically considered 28,800 vph/bph, link or 4 Hz, while 50 years ago, Seiko was describing link that same operating frequency as link "Hi-Beat."
I do think this is a watch with a special appeal to nostalgia, in a way link that both the Nautilus and the Royal Oak are not. link Probably because they've been updated regularly since the 1970s and have been a part of the modern watchmaking landscape ever since they first launched, the Nautilus and the Royal Oak have a more contemporary feel. And while their appeal certainly relies on their history, it's not an link appeal to nostalgia, per se.
Otherwise, there are likely to be two major lines of questioning, as has been the case with previous Calibre 400 Series variants. First is around the issues link with setting the time accurately that some owners experienced with early Aquis Date Calibre 400 models. Oris is saying that it's remedied this, but that we link won’t see the fix until next year, so for now the issue, link minor though it is, may persist.
