The many drawbacks of watches and why they make us love them even more
One of life’s great ironies is that the pursuit of perfection often leads to disappointment, even when it is achieved. Your average smartphone may have perfected the art of timekeeping, but a watch enthusiast could never be satisfied with that alone.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: Being ‘in the hangar’ with Oris and Wings of Hope really drove home the importance of their work
This week I once again spent more time away and in airports. Normally on a press trip I travel for the launch or preview of a watch.

Astronomical complications are poetic in nature, more emotional than practical. Calendar complications are the exact opposite: perfectly practical and useful complications for time management. Since the category doesn’t dictate specifically what should be valued and only outlines what fits into the category, it leaves a lot up to our panel on what we subjectively value more and why in this latest round table of 2022 GPHG nominations.
