So glad you cleared that whole "how to find North" using a watch thing up. LOL I'm not sure what if anything militaries do in 2023 (ET call home... on your SAT phone?) but when I did my RCAF Land Survival Course back in the mid 80s, we were in fact, required to show that we could navigate using our wrist watch. Back then of course we also used paper maps, Jeppesen computers (round slide-rule-like device similar to the one a downed aviator might find on a Breitling Navitimer), and could add, subtract, divide and multiply using our heads- all skills unheard of in the modern day ;)

@trilobiteterror8015 Жыл бұрын
Agreed. Moser's Streamliner was already a dream watch for me. Now they've made the case a bit smaller (39mm), added a beautiful fumé enamel dial, and a micro rotor! It's like they read my mind because those are all things I would have answered if some asked me how they could make the Streamliner even better. Now if only I could afford one...

Sand is heated until it melts thus becoming glass. Sand is made from ground up rocks. However steel is also made from rocks 🪨 in the form of iron ore. We don’t call steel a rock, just as we don’t call glass a rock. Loved that purple hand story and the Seiko navigation story. Toms face 😮

Murakami did innumerable projects with/for Louis Vuitton for many years, so it's expected that he would design watches for Hublot, an LVMH subsidiary. This is not the first one, by the way. Murakami is the ego of Japanese contemporary art. Aida Makoto is the id. I like Murakami's work, but I cannot imagine who would buy this Hublot. Maybe the same people who will buy the upcoming Kusama-designed Hublot. (I have no idea if that collaboration will happen, but I wouldn't be surprised.)

Murakami is that classic artist that was cool decades ago and then becomes mainstream with brands seeking to tap into the cool without realising its only cool in the eyes of people that aren't.. similar to hirst, haring...etc But it is a good concept, looks good, well executed, and will sell well to ostentatious rich dudes with low cultural capital. Expect on plenty of sports stars, in Vegas, and in the club.
