It is the Tudor again, so no need for a picture...
Just had an interesting discussion with two colleagues, one of them is interested in good watches, too. His are mostly titanium case watches, which I think are far too light to be proper time tools...
The other one has no watch at all, but uses his smartphone to check the time.
He made a lengthy argument, how totally unreliable hand-winding or automatic watches are, one always has to control their proper function and most of all: They need to be rewind every 36 or 48 hours!!!
It is great how these arguments are always coming from the guy who has absolutely no problem with recharging his phone at least once a day....
Did somebody read the story about British schools noticing that kids these days have more and more problems to check the time on analogue watch dials? Problem seems to be solved by not teaching it at all....
