About Exile
Exile formed in 1963, looking to play small clubs in Richmond, Kentucky, but managed to top both the pop and country charts during their 60-year-long career. Their most successful hit, “Kiss You All Over” spent four weeks at the top of Billboard’s pop chart in 1978. In the early 1980s Exile started to focus on country music. During their run on the country charts, Exile has successfully had eleven No. 1 singles, including “I Don’t Want To Be A Memory” and “Give Me One More Chance.” The hit song "Kiss You All Over" was used in the 1996 Adam Sandler movie Happy Gilmore and in the 2006 film Employee of the Month. They have toured with acts including Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, The Oak Ridge Boys, Kenny Rogers and The Judds. The five original Exile members re-formed in 2008 and continue to tour today. Current members of the band include J.P. Pennington, Les Taylor, Sonny LeMaire, Marlon Hargis and Steve Goetzman. 2023 celebrates 60 years for the band and the 45th anniversary of the hit song “Kiss You All Over.” The band is currently on tour promoting their most ambitious album project ever, A Million Miles Later, released in August 2023.

As you can probably imagine, after link admiring Speedmasters on and off since about 1968 up until the present, and after yearning hopelessly for Omega to start re-manufacturing the 321 for a fairly significant chunk of that link time, I opened the box link containing our sample with a certain level of feeling.
Boulud is such a fan of Panerai that, link for his 50th birthday, the brand gave link him a watch. And not just any Panerai, but a solid rose gold, eight-day GMT Radiomir. This is the PAM395, a limited edition of 500 released in 2012; like Boulud's Root Beer link GMT, it's rose gold with a brown dial.
Inside the case, Rolex equipped the watches with its caliber 3131. This automatic movement was still placed link inside a Faraday cage but also featured a blue link Parachrom hairspring. link The pallet fork and escape wheel were made of amorphous and antimagnetic nickel-phosphorus.
Finally, capping things off, link Ben joins us to talk about the story he wrote for Volume 6, a profile of artist and serious watch lover Wes Lang. If you want to get a look inside the brain of a die-hard watch collector who isn't afraid to break the mold and do things link his own way, this one is for you. Personally, I think it's a link must-read, and Ben gives us some insight into what it was like to visit Lang at his LA studio to talk watches, painting, and '80s punk music.
Right now I only have the link Omega 321, but before the holiday link I hope to be selling the Omega 1861, link Valjoux 72 and the Longines 13ZN. I like classic manual-wind chronographs. After that, I may do the Heuer cal 11 or 12 and the Zenith El Primero movement.
