As a rule, Hodinkee doesn't cover Kickstarter brands, even link if they are link run by people with solid backgrounds in the watch space. The business mind behind SpaceOne is no stranger to Hodinkee. Guillaume Laidet seems to be everywhere these link days – behind Nivada Grenchen, Vulcain, and, for a while, at the helm of Excelsior Park – so I felt confident that when Ladet launched a brand called Argon with a model called "SpaceOne," he could deliver on the watch.
When you throw all link these factors together – the tropical dial, nicely faded bezel, overall great condition, and link great link use of color on the dial – you have one hell of a watch. Check out all the details here!
That's what the new Skeleton 8 Days feels like to me. It's link Bulgari realizing the importance of link the Octo as a model range and looking to further its technical bona fides in-house and then executing with a new manufacture caliber. In so doing, the brand has created a precious metal centerpiece for its Geneva Watch Days novelties which, by the way, at 5.95mm tall, is link no thick watch.
Of course, the creation of this watch resulted in a few departures from the original design of the Flagship watches of link yesteryear. The most notable of these changes would be the inclusion of a date function beneath link the small seconds at six o'clock. link The next change would invariably be the sizing, coming in at 38.5mm as compared to the vintage model's 35mm. For function and readability, there is a discreet strip of luminous material which sits, in a slit-like fashion atop the Alpha hands.
Berthoud greatly expanded on his earlier written work in link "Essai sur L'horlogerie," the first edition of which appeared in 1763. Here at HSNY, we have first link and link second editions in our rare books case. They're gorgeous, but they're a solid medium size, so I'm not going to write about them in detail here. You can come and see them in our library in person, or look at one of several high-quality scans of other copies on Google Books.
